Subject: Taylor Adams should play

The Swans should select Adams for this week and the GF should they make, it replacing one of their three tall forwards. I say this for the following reasons.
1. He has played some of his best football in finals because finals suit his style of game - high pressure, high tackling, contested possessions.
2. The Swans are the only team of the 4 left in the competition playing 3 tall forwards and a ruckman and they should drop one of them (obviously not Grundy). Geelong have Stanley Cameron and Neale with Biclavs pinch hitting in the ruck. Port have Georgiades and Sweet and ?, and Brisbane have Daniher, Hipwood and McInerney. If I was Brisbane I would drop Hipwood and rely on Logan Morris.
3. The three Swans forward are all very average and are in the bottom 6 players in their best 23. Small and medium high pressure forwards are what wins finals these days. GWS should have beaten the Swans last week with Hogan, Briggs and Keefe (yes our Keefe).
