Top thread. How good is to be talking about footy!
I would much rather Geelong go in with smaller forwards because if Croft doesn't come up (and it doesn't look like he will) I can't see how we can cover Mooney, Kingsley and McCarthy. If King was to go forward as well we would have to use Bandy (back to midget forward line).
Kritter matched it for speed with M. Lappin last year, so I think he is worth first try on S. Johnson, although Hargrave is much quicker if we need him.
Hargrave handled Farmer last year (granted Farmer plays differently to Riccardi) and Birss would be 2nd choice.
Personnally, I wouldn't play Robbins in the backline as he tends to ball watch.
