Even if you have 1 ruckman fit, Hawkins could do the forward line ruck work and West sit behind the play.

The hawks outs are just too important to ignore the cats.

10 in a row for mine.

Blicavs will play.

According to GFC website, West is making a strong play to be considered for round 1..

A strange time for Cats players to be getting cleanouts done! West a few weeks ago and Stevie J this week. The first part of our draw is very tough so both players must have bigger problems than the club is letting on. ACK. Not a good start. :(

Was going to miss there first two? weeks of the season anyway. I guess they thought if they get it done now he will be cherry ripe come the business end of the season. He went alright in the NAP carp so it can't be that bad.

Chapman has been quite durable in recent seasons and is a proven scorer. The big problem with the Chapstick though as he tends to get rested during the (SuperCoach) finals.

I've avoided Johnson (suspension) and Chapman (injury) over the past few years.
Both unreliable. Great players though.
Get Zorko or Karnezis for a cheaper option.

I can't trust Chapmans hamstrings, could go ping at any minute. He is getting older now too, great player though.

Chapman - 19 or more games a season every year for the past ten seasons. Averaged 20 possessions a game every season since 2005 and has averaged a goal a game in this period. Remember Chappy is a forward.

Johnson - 20 or more games every season since 2006 excepting 2009. Averaged 20 possessions a game every season and two goals per game in that period. Again, great stats for a forward.

You my friend, are talking out of your arse. ;) I do rate the ZORK though he's in my team. I have Chappy but not Johnson.

Pfft. Any player can get injured at any minute. Chapman misses more games through player management rather than injury and that is the real risk with all of Geelong's experienced players.
