Wouldn't surprise me. If he's sore he won't play.
There was some interesting discussion on 360 about this game with dal santo and Gibson. They were basically saying that both teams, but the crows in particular, won't be going all out to win.
Obviously they will still be trying, they weren't taking about players going half pace, but tactically you may not show all your cards. if you have a trick up your sleeve - like Sloane to half back or full forward to shake a tag or something - there is no reason to do it in this game when we have already locked up a top two spot and are very likely to play the swans at some stage in the finals.
Certainly throws up a few interesting scenarios
I tend to agree. You might find over the next 2 games Greenwood, Cameron etc playing more midfield minutes and Sloane etc forward more.
Tex might play closer to goal and Jenkins up the ground more.
Sydney have a lot more to play for tonight then the Crows do so i expect the Swans to come up firing! Still think we can/will win.
