Don't miss any of the news involving the Swans as we bring you everything from the newspapers around the country on Friday 7^th August, 2015.

ADAM Goodes is back but Lance Franklin is out of tomorrow night’s vital match against Geelong at Simonds Stadium.

The back injury that Franklin carried into last week’s emotional win over Adelaide has failed to improve despite a light week of training.

The worry for the Swans is Franklin may not be right for the following week against Collingwood as well, with coach John Longmire unsure when his star forward will return.

Parker will play his 100th game tomorrow night, having raced to the milestone by the age of 22.

He is the youngest player in the Swans’ leadership group and has already won a premiership (2012) and a Bob Skilton medal (2014).

Lance Franklin stood by Adam Goodes metaphorically last week but he will not be doing so in person on Saturday night after succumbing to a back injury.

Goodes' return has been offset by the loss of the three-time Coleman Medal winner, forcing the Swans into another reshuffle of their forward line for the clash against Geelong.

Franklin is also no certainty to be fit for next week's game against Collingwood either. The superstar forward is nursing the same back ailment which resulted in him being a late withdrawal a fortnight ago against West Coast.

It's a long way from his days as a junior captain. "It wasn't like I had to pull anyone into line, that was more the coach's job. I wasn't going to scream at anyone at 12 years of age," Parker said.

GEELONG great Cameron Ling said fans must consider whether they want to drive Adam Goodes out of the game before they boo him at Simonds Stadium tomorrow.

Geelong officials contacted the Swans last Monday to discuss how they can help stop the booing of Goodes.

“I hope the booing stops,” Ling told The Daily Telegraph. “I don’t want to tell people what they can and can’t do. People are entitled to cheer and boo and do whatever they want when they go to the footy within the boundaries of respect and what is OK.

“I implore people to leave race out of it and to think of a human being’s wellbeing and a person’s state of mind and what they are going through.

“I hope people stop and think about that before they either boo or don’t boo.

Captain Joel Selwood and coach Chris Scott have called on their fans to show Goodes the respect he deserves and not boo him. Ling called on Geelong fans to let their passion show but think carefully about the Goodes situation.

SOUTHS star Greg Inglis has broken his silence on the Adam Goodes booing controversy — as he revealed plans to help find 500 jobs for indigenous workers in Sydney’s West.

On the eve of the NRL’s indigenous round, the Rabbitohs captain outlined a new Souths commitment to find 500 jobs and another 500 traineeships before 2018 for Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders.

“As I’ve become older and a leader within the club and our community I now understand my role as an indigenous Australian with a profile to support these types of initiatives that can really change people’s lives,’’ Inglis said.

Inglis, whose “goanna crawl” has become a trademark on-field celebration, said he reached out to the embattled Goodes last week when the Sydney Swans champion was reeling from AFL fans’ ongoing booing.

“I checked in with him last week to make sure he was doing OK and dealing with it all,’’ Inglis said.

“You could say Goodesy is good now. He’s a great indigenous leader. I am much quieter but we both want to achieve things for our community.’’

The trade restrictions on the Sydney Swans has not only affected the club, but the rest of the competition according to general manager of football Tom Harley.

Banned from taking part in last year's exchange period, the Swans won an appeal to can get back into the trade mix in 2015, but AFL-imposed restrictions will make it tough to get any deals done.

The Swans can acquire players this year but the AFL has placed a salary limit on anyone the club wishes to sign, meaning high profile players and free agents will be out of reach.

Harley said he believes the issue isn't just a problem for his club, it will also have unintended consequences for the rest of the League.

A push to remove Alan Jones from the SCG Trust has followed the Sydney shock jock's heated public commentary over Adam Goodes in which Jones accused Goodes of always playing the victim.

Fellow trustee and former Swans chairman Richard Colless is behind the push, telling Jones his stand on Goodes places him at conflict with his role as a trustee of Sydney's home ground. Goodes is an SCG Trust ambassador, the only AFL player to hold that role.

The divisions between the powerful and political management group of the SCG emerged after Jones last week delivered a heated rant on Channel Seven about Goodes.

Any decision to stand down Jones rests with NSW Premier Mike Baird. Jones, who has served as a trustee for more than two decades, is the longest-serving member of the SCG Trust which operates not only the cricket ground but the nearby Sydney Football Stadium.

A restructured 'super trust' is expected to come into operation over the next 12 months and potentially before the start of the next football season which would see ANZ Stadium also placed under the same management.

The public body is appointed by the state government with chairman Shepherd holding no disciplinary powers.
