Four Sydney Swans players have been acknowledged for outstanding Round 1 performances being named in the AFL.com.au team of the week.
Heath Grundy, Kieren Jack, Luke Parker and Lance Franklin were all included in the best 22 from the opening round of the season.
See below the reasoning behind the selection of each player in the side.
HEATH GRUNDY (Sydney Swans) – As his side's lone key defender, Grundy didn't let Travis Cloke touch the footy in the first half, while grabbing 19 touches of his own for the night.
KIEREN JACK (Sydney Swans) – Had the game's first centre clearance and hit Lance Franklin with a pass inside 30 seconds, the first of his 10 inside 50s for the night to go with 35 disposals.
LANCE FRANKLIN (Sydney Swans) – After a dream start to his comeback with a goal inside the opening minute, Franklin finished with four and looked like the Buddy of old.
LUKE PARKER (Sydney Swans) – Showing how badly he was missed late last season with a broken leg, half of the tough midfielder's 40 touches were contested.
