It has been a tough season for the Swans so far as they look to adjust with a younger and less experienced side than in previous years and will be coming into the game off the back of a 50-point defeat at the hands of Turvey Park.
For the Swans, Henry Delves has been the standout in a tough season to be sitting second in the goalkicking so far this season with 24 goals, currently 21 goals behind leader Trent Castles from Mangoplah CUE.
It is also unsurprising to see Delves be sitting in the top players for the Swans, having been named in the bests six times from the eight games so far this season alongside Riley Irvin.
James Toscan, Nathan Richards and Thomas Powell have also been among the best for their side week-in, week-out with five of the eight weeks in the bests.

The previous meeting between the two sides saw the Demons able to come away with a 33-point defeat but were holding their own before the home side ran away with the game in the final term.
Meanwhile, the reserve grades will be looking to bounce back from their second loss of the season after falling to the Bulldogs last weekend.
This week's clash against the fifth-placed Demons will give the Swans a good chance to keep pace with the top two sides.
The under 17.5s will look to keep their perfect season rolling buoyed by the confidence of knocking off Turvey Park when they take on the last-placed Demons. The unbeaten side will kick off the action at 10.30am.
