    Forward structure

    What are our options in Magic doesnt get up:

    1) Simply replace Magic with O'Keefe and keep it similar.

    2) Have Doyle replace Magic. Can he play a full game at FF?

    3) Move Barry Hall back to FF and play Stevens at CHF.

    4) Play Goodes permanently at FF, and have Doyle, LRT or Meklejohn ruck all day.

    According to todays Herald Sun, Mathew Nicks is a big chance to fill in for O'loughlin. That would be the biggest case ever of going from chocolates to boiled lollies. I would rather have Stevens play than Nicks, or maybe we could even give Frosty a go, after all he was named as one of the reserves best.

      Bring O'Keefe in for Mick.

      Nicks and Snapper to warm the bench.

      Ruck combo of Goodes, Doyle & LRT.

          Play a 5 man forward line and have an extra man in defence.

          Doyle and O'Keefe in the Forward Line

          Schneider, Hall and Davis on the Half Forward line.

              For some reason I like this idea. I haven't worked it out yet.

              On the flipside:

              We do need the numbers up forward to negate their great running game off half-back, Wanganeen, Montgomery etc. I think we will need a Ben Matthews to come back similar to the job he did on Rohan Smith.

                No let Goodes play him normal role in the ruck and resting forward. I would bring in Powell for Magic and use him and LRT as the floating defender.

                    wasn't it Pebbles who played on Smith?

                      Maybe you are right come to think of it. So who did Ben do a second half tagging job on about 2 months ago?

                        They could use Seymour more in the forward line he was a good target whil he was in the forward line on Sat.
