The Sydney Swans will face Essendon in Round 19 of the VFL, with coach Damian Truslove confirming six changes, including the returns of Aaron Francis, Corey Warner, and Jacob Konstanty.
Warner has been in blistering form in recent weeks for the red and white, and will provide plenty of toughness in the midfield alongside Ryan Clarke. Clarke averages 24 disposals and four tackles per game, while Warner averages 20 possessions and four clearances.
Jack Buller will also provide plenty of grunt up foward, while Dylan Stephens will prove integral if the Swans are record their third win of 2023.
Tom Hickey will also feature after impressing with two goals, 12 disposals, and 28 hit-outs against Western Bulldogs in Round 17.
The Swans were made to rue a host of missed opportunities in their last match at Tramway Oval, succumbing to a relentless fourth quarter raid from the Bulldogs that saw them record a a 62-point victory.
