According to Sydney Swans reserves coach Jared Crouch, the match review is one of the most important parts of player development.

The process, which begins on Monday morning when the players return to the club for the start of the week, allows young developing players to review their performance with the use of match vision and the help of one of the Swans’ development coaches.

Speaking on SwansTV’s Beyond the Boundary program, Crouch said the use of match vision was a critical part of a player’s education.

“It’s very important because the players can see themselves on the screen, and it’s obviously really important to get them to see that, and then to take them outside to do drills in training to reinforce it,” he said.

“It’s also important so the team can understand the way the seniors want to play football, so then we can just replicate that in what we’re doing with the development players on field.

“All the players have to do is click on their name and they can see every bit of the game they’ve been involved in and then they come in and see me, Nick Davis or George Stone and we sit and go through their edits.

“We’re obviously looking at the way the team played as a whole, but also looking at individuals for running patterns and how they get the ball and maybe the opposition and how they got the ball and where the goals start from.”

In his first season at the club, Swans rookie Brandon Jack said he had already learnt a lot from taking part in the video review process.

Jack said revisiting the game on screen allows him and his team mates to take a closer look at their own game from a different point of view.

“In the game you can’t always see what’s around you and there are different angles that we get from the vision,” he said.

“We can watch from behind the goals and can see what is 50 metres behind us, and it helps us see where we should have run and what we can do next time.”

The young midfielder said the review process also allowed young players to sit in on the Swans senior reviews and learn from the club’s top players.

“Another thing we tend to do is compare ourselves to some of the senior players and having their vision there that we can go through helps us out immensely,” he said.

“My mentor is Jude Bolton so we go through my tapes and then I also try and sit in on some of the senior players, including Benny McGlynn when he goes through his tape, and I just sit in the room to listen and observe.

“I can compare my game to what Benny McGlynn has done on the weekend and we get a lot of help from that.”
