I'd love to see Laycock at FF, with Lucas and Bradley playing a sort of Duel Pronged CHF.

Laycocks contested marking is superb.

Would be a big mistake not to bring in Bradley if we can't get Lloyd off.

Almost tempted to want CJ back in the side, purely for his marking/size. More of a direct replacement for Lloyd than Bradley would be, but i think Laycock would be a better option. Bradley's form must be rewarded.

Bradley has been dominating CHF at VFL level for a number of weeks.

If he doesn't come in for Lloyd, we are sending a message to our young players that no matter how well you play, good form won't get you a game when a spot opens up.

That isn't healthy for our footy club. Bradley deserves a game if Lloyd misses, his form has demanded it.

Gumby is one week back from an extensive time on the sidelines. He's a kid that was well protected on the weekend. I can't wait to see him, but if he plays ahead of Bradley then we're a joke.
 
The same bloke that filled in for Lloyd last year and booted 60+ goals. ;)

Scarlett is in for a almighty de-pansting from Lucas this Friday.

Lucas.

Bradley should play CHF, if he doesn't then our match committee is sending the wrong message.

Johns ahead of Bradley.

Bradley worries me, i really dont think he will make it. Johns had a very good game vs Geelong last year IIRC?

Johns had his go with Lucas against Hawthorn and the Roos while Lloyd was out and it didnt work well at all.

Its time to give Kepler a run at it.

Just play the lumbering dinosaur (Laycock) at full forward, Dustin Fletcher works as well

He was poor those games but he has proven more at AFL level than Bradley imo and i believe he'd provide a better target imo. Hes more likely to kick us 4-5 than Bradley is. Comparing them, Johns has better hands and is a better kick for goal meaning he is more suited imo.

From CHF it's as good as, especially when you're bringing down 10-15 marks whilst doing it.

We're a better team this year because Lloyd is kicking 3-4 each week.

Yep but i don't think Bradley can do it at AFL level. I'd much rather we play it safe and Johns plays presuming he's fit of course.

I actually would prefer another mid came into replace Lloyd because if Stanton and Winders are out were going to need all the run we can get as its pretty obvios they are our best runners. The cats only really have Ablett and Mooney as tall forwards so i'd rotate Ryder and Laycock through the forward line. Although that doesnt let Fletcher play as a free man in the backline which i dont think Geelong would let happen anyway.
 
If appeal fails(which I'm sure it wont):
Out-Loyd.
In-Hille.
Bradley may come into the calculations, his forms been pretty good and would pose a nuisance across half forward.
