Re: Round 22 Captain

Very happy with that! We can't all choose Boyd though

Only Boyd, Mumford, Kennedy, Thompson and Jacobs beat Sylvia, and only 2 (Boyd/Thompson) would have been common captain choices so that's good.

Captain round 23

Captain choices this round?

For me it's Ablett versus Dees or Swan versus Freo.
My opponent will go Ablett I think. Do i play it safe and do the same or go Swan and hope unlike last round he outdoes Ablett?

If I had the guts it would be Buddy. He SHOULD go huge againsts Dogs but you just never know with him.

Re: Captain round 23

Yep in the same boat. Opponent will go Ablett.

Really want to go Buddy but just know if I do he'll let me down.

Re: Captain round 23

It's out of Swan and Ablett for me also.

I'm the same but whenever I see his thread it puts too many different equations in my head .
Just going to go with my gut and stick with Ablett. There's a high chance my opponent will pick him anyway and my team is better overall so in theory I shouldn't need captain points for an edge.

Tossing a coin, Swan or Ablett.

I really really really want to put the C on Mumford this week. Good POD.... But i wont.

Re: Captain round 23

Swan named on bench, could mean nothing, could mean everything....

Ablett for me, though Buddy against us is oh so tempting and won't be my opponents choice. Went Pendles in the qualifier and regretted it, still won but it was closer than it needed to be

Friday night game so you'll know before lockout anyway.

Re: Captain round 23

Have no idea this week, think it will definately be a toss of the coin between ablett and swan!!!

 

[kookadog]

Re: Captain round 23

Why not Pendles?

Leaning towards Ablett, but Freo are decimated and will cop a hiding.

Swan usually murders the crap teams.

 

[THRILLHOU]

Re: Captain round 23

I'm taking the risk. Buddy is my man. I'm tipped to lose by about 100 points so i need some magic.

Dale Morris usually contains buddy pretty well, but with no morris, no lake, they are going with Ed Barlow. He's only giving away 1cm, but about 10kg and buddy has been in good touch the last few weeks.

Hoping for 150 odd

Re: Captain round 23

ablett for me, opponent doesnt have him

Re: Captain round 23

That is unless they traded him in this week....

I don't have Ablett im leaning towards Buddy as well but also contemplating Swan, Pendles or Joel Selwood against the swannis after the bye at skilled.

Re: Captain round 23

Is anyone else worried that Swan is going to be sub? I dont like the fact that he is starting on the bench!

To quote someone else, here's the list of premiums who've started as the sub: "".

Hope that helps.

Swan.

Re: Captain round 23

Super Swan for mine, have given him it the last two weeks and has done nothing to suggest I should give it to Ablett.

Come on, Swanny! 170 would be nice.

Starting sub is not the worry because you'll know before the game and before cut off.

The concern is that him or Pendelbury will be subbed off early if they have no other injurys and are 10 goals up.

Ablett got more than Swan last round!

What about Didak? I know he's not "premium" this year but him and Brad Green show that anyone can be the sub

Didak was only ever sub through form and fitness issues, same with Green. Swan is flying.
