the battle of the hamstrung

[cortez]

Looking at either chappy or rioli as my 4th mid. chappy is proven and rioli has massive potential. who should i slot in there?
other prems are Buddy, Fyfe, Pav and Martin.

4th Forward?   Chappy played on 1 leg last year still went well got them fixed. Cyril says he still runs old style when tired so may re injure early while still adapting running style hope he doesn't though

[fever]

that'll be a strong line.

i always make chappy a back-end of the year upgrade target to make sure his body is right cos i'm never confident he'll play close to 22 games, so i spose that means rioli, though the exact same could/should be said about him.

Chappy is a proven gun whereas Cyril is too inconsistent

[ubeaut]

Apparently Chappy says he's over injury concerns that dogged him last season as feels as fit as ever. He still averaged well. However he did nothing to push his case against the Tigers. Didn't do much at all when he had every chance to dominate in the mids/half forward with no Selwood,Varcoe,Menzel or Bartel. Maybe he is another who could give a rats about NAB or maybe he is not as good to go as he says. Him and Rioli and Martin are fighting for one or two spots for me.

I dont think many of the cats cared about saturday. reckon we will see what he is like this week since it is their last games before round 1 most clubs will be wanting their top players having a good hitout.

Chappy...he hasn't missed too many games in the last cpl of years.
