Field hockey requires forwards who can make the most of their chances, midfielders and defenders who can keep running all game and a goalie who doesn't mind battling against the odds. This field hockey team is comprised of AFL players who might have some of those qualities.
Ryan O'Keefe can kick a goal on the football field with ease and his accuracy could translate to another sport. They haven't shown it yet at AFL level, but the other players in the league with the same last name as the Sydney sharpshooter also have similar skills.
Thomas, Sansbury and Boak can break open a game of football with their pace, they might be able to do it with a hockey stick too.
Surjan and Symes are running defenders who used to be on the same AFL team, they are reunited in this team and would seem to be ideally suited to this other sport. Morton might become a great player around half back, as a loose player sweeping up, and he could be a sweeper as a field hockey defender too. Thursfield provides some strength in the defensive structure and Hudghton may not get hurt as much in the protective equipment of the goalie.

He may have played only 6 games in the reserves in 2007, as he had some injury problems, so he might be considered a new recruit for the Swans this year. Although he has some tough competition with Bird and Veszpremi ready to play in 2008.
