Chapman Will Play Next Week: Thompson

Geelong coach Mark Thompson is optimistic gun forward Paul Chapman will get over an injury scare from Friday's loss to the Bulldogs and play in Round 22.

Chapman is a popular DT player who many coaches own and his availability for Round 22, Grand Final week in the world of DreamTeam, is crucial.

Thompson said, “I think Paul Chapman will play next week and I think James Kelly will play next week and Brad Ottens will play in the VFL tomorrow night and hopefully he has a great game and gets through and we put him in the team."

The Geelong boss also spoke about another popular Cats forward, "Then Steve Johnson plays and we are up and about."

Adcock Back For Round 22?

DreamTeam coaches who hung onto Brisbane's Jed Adcock might be in for some luck with the defender a chance to play in Round 22.

Adcock will play in the AFLQ this weekend after suffering a seemingly season-ending knee injury six weeks ago. And if Adcock gets through that match, Brisbane may give him a run in Round 22.

Lions coach Michael Voss said, "We toyed with playing him back in seniors but we think realistically to give him the best chance to come back is probably better through reserves.

"You should see Jed. He's going to rip a few people's heads off at the moment."
