Re: Round 13 Captain

Cox has an average of 139 at Patersons Stadium this year, so I'll give him the captaincy. Buddy VC.

Re: Round 13 Captain

Boyd should chop against us. We're terrible. Don't normally put a captain against my boys, but i may have to this week

Cox another strong option

Buddy- Could score 200. But will probbaly kick 5.7 and have 4 frees against and get 110

Risk versus reward. May just play it safe, flying up the rankings at the moment (but no chance at overall) so want as many possible points to get as high as possible

Re: Round 13 Captain

Franklin is very tempting and could go absolutely massive, but I feel Boyd and Cox are safer choices.

Re: Round 13 Captain

Boyd, Buddy or Cox?

I'll back Cox this week I think.

 

[Ducky Tie]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Going cox again, too consistent at huge scores to miss. In saying that, he'll probably get injuren in the first quarter.

Re: Round 13 Captain

The only problem with a capt vs GC Suns is that most opposition players score heavily - reducing the chance of a 150+.

Gazza and Boyd still score well despite getting flogged.

Scores of 165, 121, 131, 103 (v Sandi), 149, 166.

Yes please.

This. If you extend it further, his lowest score against a bottom 9 team at Patersons is 131, while his average against bottom 9 teams at home is 152.75. Pretty happily locked him in.

Re: Round 13 Captain

I don't think I can watch Friday night's game. I can't bare watching Cross tag S.Thompson out of the game, then do nothing himself...

Yeah, I am hoping spud Eade lets Cross do what he does best - get the ball and use it. Then if the Doggies have the ball more often, they might win a game.
So many probs with injury, byes suspension, I am taking a punt on Buddy.

Going big dirty cox

 

[Skystyler]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Cox doesn't score that well against Brogan. Hawthorn aren't known for being merciful in front of their Tassie fans. Buddy for mine, will be disappointed if he doesn't get 150+.

Going this way as well. The FA Buddy racks up gets Cox over the line.

Re: Round 13 Captain

Cox over Boyd, Ablett and Franklin.

 

[Plugger35]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Tossing up between Cox, Buddy, Ablett and Boyd.

Cox and Boyd probably safer options but Buddy and Ablett have more upside but are also a bit riskier.

No doubt whoever I choose will score the least.

 

[SydCrow]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Bock has a pretty good record on Buddy

Cox at home should give Brogan the run around (I hope)

 

[Knighta21]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Going to cop a donut this week to save trades so have gone for the high risk of Buddy captain to hopefully fill in for Z smith missing.

Could get a huge score which covers smith
or could fail and get wmuch worse than if i just traded.

I rather keep the trades though

Edit: Tempted to go Watson too after his 2nd week back. Bombers will be fired up I reckon and he is the one to start the fire.
Ehhhh I give up on supercoach.....

Re: Round 13 Captain

Buddy is coming off an injury niggle against a pretty weak team... It's not like the Hawks will need some Buddy heroics to get them over the line. I.e. Hawks.v.GC = Rest game for Buddy. Playing or not, it's a rest game for him.

I reckon Boyd is a good choice, Cox is fantastic (and you can quote me).

Re: Round 13 Captain

Anyone worried about hawks playing in tassie, might be wet and windy for buddy which will make it hard to score huge

True. But on the other hand im sure Franklin would love to add to his Coleman and Brownlow medal chances.....

[Ed_Gein]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Went with Cox.

Franklin and Boyd crossed my mind. Boyd is a one man show at the Dogs at the moment and i had the feeling the Crows were going to put a tag on him. Franklin, more likely to kick 3.7 than he is 7.3. lol.

 

[dlanod]

Re: Round 13 Captain

Yeah, should have warned people to stay away from Boyd. Brought him in this week so bank on a 90-odd. Good to see him on 45 at half time, that's about par for my new recruits.

Re: Round 13 Captain

Initially went for Franklin, then changed it to Cox.
