The Sydney Swans have named their fourth debutant of the season with Irishman Colin O’Riordan set to face North Melbourne on Sunday.

The 22-year-old is one of seven players named to come into the 26-man squad to face North Melbourne.

Isaac Heeney (concussion), Tom Papley (hip flexor) and Gary Rohan (hamstring tightness) have also been named in the squad that will be cut to a final side of 22 on Friday.

Jarrad McVeigh (broken collarbone), Dan Hannebery (calf) and Kieren Jack (knee) will all miss this weekend’s clash after sustaining injuries in last week’s loss to Geelong.

Coach John Longmire confirmed O’Riordan would become the fourth player to debut in the red and white this season.

“It is great to have Colin into the team,” Coach John Longmire told QBE Team Selection.



“He has been fantastic since he got to our Club, he has great energy and is just a really great person.

“He has been doing everything we have asked for in our reserves so he gets his opportunity which is terrific.”

Harrison Marsh, Nic Newman and Darcy Cameron have also been named in the extended squad after strong form in the NEAFL.

The final side will be named online at 5pm on Friday afternoon.
