The Sydney Swans VFL suffered a disappointing 63-point loss to Port Melbourne on Saturday night in Round 9 of the competition.
With the young red and white side heavily impacted by a Swans injury and unavailability list, the depth was once again tested facing the Boroughs.
With a debut senior match behind him this season, Corey Warner impressed with a strong performance, finishing with a team-high 26 disposals along with five tackles, five clearances and a goal.
Rookie Hugo Hall-Kahan was the most effective forward target, kicking three goals.
In his second game back for the season, Sam Wicks was tough at the contest, laying seven tackles to go with 19 disposals, while young defender Lachlan Rankin was also busy with 20 touches.
Key defender Lewis Melican got the ball 14 times and took seven marks, Jaiden Magor also took seven grabs to go with 13 disposals, and Angus Sheldrick had 16 disposals and a goal having earlier been the sub in the senior side's narrow win over North Melbourne.
Jacob Konstanty and Caleb Mitchell each kicked a goal.
Rookies Will Edwards (seven disposals) and Cameron Owen (eight disposals, seven tackles) were relatively quiet, as was Cooper Vickery (seven disposals).
SYDNEY SWANS 8.7.55
