After just reading a post on a certain Cartoon, I'm not sure what to think?
But I think I can laugh about that. I actually thought before you posted that I'd left that open, but dint' think anyone would take up on it.

Travis Tuck, although he's not all that new, will be the best of the siblings.
Under those conditions without a doubt it would have to be Adam Hartlett either as a forward or a key defender. His has the height, the size and the physical strength to potentially be an important key forward or an CHB playing on the tall ruckman who seem to float forward and kill us every week.
However I have strong doubts he'll make it at this point.

Matt Lobbe. Fills both our needs.

Sam Jacobs in his first game on Friday played a better game than Jason Laycock has ever managed over his entire career.

Hawkins easily. If he has any sort of a season Geelong will win it.

Wrong. Alot of teams have bad talls, I'm not saying Essendon are the worst and I don't believe Carlton are either, but Laycock clearly is the biggest hack in the history of the AFL. If nothing else, Carlton at least have Fev, though the rest of their talls are hardly braggable. Considering you are talking up Laycock though, well yeah need I say more?
That basically sums up the state of your depth. If Hille goes down you guys are screwed.

Mitch Thorp. He, Franklin, Roughead and Williams in the forward line and Geelong can forget about getting revenge.
Tom swift. Want to see him do amazingly well....give me that feeling of excitement again.
I too would like Thorp to come out firing, but I don't think it'll be in the forward line.
Would it be going too far to suggest he might be the best in his family?
On a needs basis, Thorp to accept he won't displace Franklin from CHF, and make CHB his own. Ideally suited to the role Hodge played in the GF for mine, as he reads the play so well, and is a good kick off both feet.
Laycock averaged 9.6 hitouts last season, only 1.2 less than Cloke (who is carlton's highest) despite only actually rucking about half as much as him.
Thats good enough for me.
And as for depth, if Fevola goes down then you are considerably more screwed than us if Hille goes down.

I wasn't aware that anyone accused Cloke of having an ounce of talent?
If Fev goes down Carlton are done, I don't disagree. My point is about Essendon though. If you're happy to accept mediocrity then by all means enjoy Laycock.

The blues aren't even established enough to say they won't go down even if Fev fires.
All I am saying is that Essendon will go nowhere if Laycock gets a game. Hille is a great ruckman who has established himself. Laycock wouldn't put his head over the ball if it disguised itself as a pillow.
FYI I hope Laycock plays 300 games for the Bombers, a guy that big averaging less than 10 hitouts a game and with terrible efficiency, all that means is more campsites will be taken up at Bonnie Doon in early September.

I liked the look of this kid the other week. Hopefully for the Eagles he is over those leg injuries.....
