Hunt - interesting, I admit I wouldn't mind seeing him in action and certainly Henno hasn't been great. He's also considerably quicker than either Richards or Henneman. But another option for that position could be Bradley given that he was BOG for Bendigo on the weekend.

Lloyd could be in some trouble! ;)

yeah kicked 7 from CHF and marked absolutely anything that came near him apparently. Given his lack of a preseason it might be worth giving him a couple more games before he gets a chance. However I wouldn't mind in the slightest if his name popped up this week.

A bit early to put out a lineup; lots can happen between now and Thursday. How about:

IN: Wellman, Watson, Laycock
OUT: Henneman, Reynolds, Richards

On Whitnall, can you imagine...:eek:

I want to see Henno play again. He hasn't had much match practice and he did a few good things. I also don't think Wellman or Bolton are up to being CHB's most weeks, they are too light and get monstered by the bigger blokes - and we're a way better side with Lucas up forward it seems, so if Henno can hold down CHB i think we'd be better for it.

Pretty close to mine, although I'd only have Wellman in.
 
There have been no reports of Reynolds being injured against WCE as far as I know. Hunt is probably the most unlikely inclusion for round 4.

My INS and OUTS are shown with explanation:
Wellman for Henneman- say no more
Bradley for Lovett-Murray- Bradley’s BOG in VFL cannot go ignored. NLM’s 9 possessions in 2 games showed glimpses but don’t warrant a recall. A tall utility replaces a medium forward.
Alvey for Reynolds- Great VFL game for Alvey supersedes Reynolds less than acceptable 4 possessions. Reynolds needs more time in VFL, Alvey is just starting to settle in and gel with the senior players.
Laycock for Allan- 7 Goals in VFL cannot be ignored. Laycock is ready and as a CHF/Ruckman and could be just what we need to play alongside Lloyd. Allan is only a back-up Ruckman, and such a player is not as effective.
Watson for Richards- Watson’s 15 possession game against Port on the HFF and MF proved he is potentially far more damaging than Richards is capable. May not return from injury.

This is my round 4 team with the maximum changes

FF Rioli, Lloyd, Laycock

HF Watson, Lucas, Mercuri

C Rama, Hird, McPhee

HB Solomon, Bolton, Bullen

FB Welsh, Fletcher, Wellman

FOLL: Hille, Peverill, Murphy

INT: Alvey, Bradley, Misiti, Dyson

EMG: Stanton, Allan, Lovett-Murray, Richards, Reynolds, Henneman

Unavailable: JJohnson, MJohnson, McVeigh, Haynes, Cupido

Stanton just misses out after a great VFL game. The OUTS have all played poor games so far excluding Allen whose duties can be fulfilled by Laycock and Bradley.

Allan out? Your kidding. Laycock and Bradley are not ruckmen.

Alvey needs more match fitness.

Would think about bringing Cupes straight back in for ANZAC day. Might scare Collingwood a bit after last year. Half a game from Cupes would be better than most in forward pocket. If Watsoni s fit, bring him back in, same goes Welly, I think Laycock needs at least one more game, then unleash him on ANZAC day. had a few good players play their first game on that day. Solly is the first that springs to mind.

Wouldn't change the team too much, Lovett Murray may go and Reynolds (who HAS to be injured). Apart from that, only Hunt and Henno could be fighting for a spot, otherwise let the team play together again.

We just can;t afford to lose to fcuking CARLSCUM!!
 
Agree on saving Laycock for Anzac day.

Also don't like the idea of rushing Bradley back in, i'd be perfectly happy to leave him in the VFL all season even if he's consistently in the best players - he just needs lots of match time to develop imo.

God I hope your not part of the selection comitee

Allan out????? Played very limited game time on Sat (think I read he played 40 -50 mins), have a look at the last 10 mins when Hird was getting all the clearances Allan was hitting it straight down his Gob.

Bradley is not ready for senior football he proved this in the wizard cup and round 1, the game is too quick for him and he panic's when he has the footy.
 
Cupido will return to senior football either this week or next, the question is whether to throw him straight in the deep end against Carlton ... or play him in the seconds this week and bring him back Anzac Day.

Wellman is a certainty to play.

I'd probably drop Henneman, Richards, Reynolds or Misiti and bring in Wellman, Cupido, Alvey, Laycock.

He's going to get another go sooner rather than later if he keeps having games for Bendigo where he ends up with 28 possessions, 13 marks, and 3 goals to his name.

He needs to perform consistantly to warrant a recall especially with players returning from injury now. We also don't really need his type atm.
 
May as well throw Cupido in this week, match fit or not.

Regardless of the team, I can just see hacks like harford and houlihan tearing us apart this week.

Usually happens against this lot.

what? A dominant ruck/CHF? I think we could use him :D but I agree with you really.

Still it's pretty damn encouraging
