    Who are the likely replacements for Hall because i don't think he'll get up.

    Vogels is the most obvious choice. Tall Forward for Tall Forward
    Moore for extra grunt in the midfield and play as a small forward.
    Phillips may get another chance releasing Schneider in the midfield.
    White unlikely but you never know.
    I'm not sure who'll come in but I'd expect Richards to spend more time up forward if Hall is out.

    Perhaps ROK will get first crack at CHF??

        Yes.

        Load the midfield and give some youngsters a chance up forward.

              I think you're kidding yourself - any opposition that didn't have plans for Kirk, Goodes, Kennelly, O'Keefe, at least, would be setting themselves up for a very big fall. And then there's our forward line.

              In the two games we've played this season, both opposition teams have had very defensive game plans that have included tagging, extra men in defence, double-teaming etc.

                Will be disappointed not to see Hall vs Merritt if it doesn't happen. The young fella had a great tussle with Bazza last year. Baz got some of his much missed aggression on. I'd love to see more of it in general....

                  Are you saying Judd was tagging McVeigh in round 1??

                    No, I don't believe I did say that.

                      I think opposition coaches will plan around most of our players - it would be remiss of them not to. The main ones they would focus on would be Hall, O'Keefe, Kirk, Kennelly, Goodes.

                          I doubt he gets special attention yet.
