The Vietnam Swans coaching staff are scratching their heads after Tom Liberatore – 2016 Asian Champs emergency player – somehow made it onto the pre-game banner of the Western Bulldogs tonight at Etihad Stadium.
Liberatore didn’t poll a single Swans B&F vote at the 2016 Asian Champs and left Vietnam shortly after the Champs weekend.
Some players believe the banner is a desperate ploy to make the coveted ANZAC Day Friendship Match squad; this year being held against the Cambodian Eagles on April 22 in Vung Tau.
The Vietnam Swans committee have agreed to discuss the issue at the next committee meeting, and investigate the perplexing signage with the Western Bulldogs in the weeks to come.
