Captains Captains Thread

[Aussie_boy]

Treloar for me this week. Couldn't end up getting Macrae in due to carnage at selection and I like to have my captains playing Friday night to make or break my weekend plus he has a good record against the Dogs.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

I'm probably going to stick with Macrae. Read the article about Buckley talking tough on "paying close attention" to Macrae this week but: 1) Buckley is full of it and 2) Can Macrae even be tagged at the moment?

Tempted by Mitchell vs WCE - even with a Hutchings tag should probably still go 120+. And I've also got Treloar vs Bulldogs...

But gotta go with the guy in form, and that's crae!

But he brought in Greenwood?

Yeah this. Seems greenwood was brought in specifically to do the job on Crae so I think this is going to be quite a hard tag. Crae probably still good enough to ton up but not sure he goes huge.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Greenwood only very very recently come back from injury through the VFL and been on limited minutes. I would not be surprised if he didn't have the tank to go with someone like Macrae

 

[Fyfetheknife]

McLean Lloyd or titch? Feel like yeo or Hutchins could go with titch

 

[Dupogi]

I heard a bit of a Sam Mitchell interview regarding Tom Mitchell, where he basically said they will try to nullify his influence more so than the amount of touches he gets... make of that what we will

 

[PAFC27]

Macrae averages 7 tackles, 7 clearances and 15 contested possessions. Has the tank to pick up his usual marks down back. A lot of things there that are hard to stop.

Greenwood may be effective but ultimately I think you can expect a 100+ from Macrae. I'm locking it in.

Looks like Titch will be left to run free without much attention. Will probably stick with him as C. Don’t think Crae goes huge tonight but if he does, i need someone capable of matching him.

Macrae, Mitchell or new recruit Franklin.

Hmmm.

 

[JADED]

Macrae. Dry track gotta be better than last week (and Gibson/H.Greenwood definitely tried to go with him)
I will be surprised if an underdone Levi G can go with the form mid of the comp for a full game.
Good thing about Friday capt. Done and over with asap.

Unless he pumps out an 80 and then its a shit saturday and sunday

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Just can’t bring myself to take it off Macrae with his form

 

[Sixpence]

I really can't decide, Titch or Macrae. Hopefully they both beast it and score high.

 

[Dupogi]

Thinking about chucking it on Curnow the C - but is that too risky? Titch seems obvious

 

[forlols]

Might have a look at niglio if Kelly returns, niglio started on fire with Kelly in the side. Don't have Macrae worried about Hutchings tagging titch

And i decided to take the C off niglio after i read the isaac smith article about simmo flagging him instead of titch.... need you to go big pig

 

[PAFC27]

Toss up between Macrae (MELB), Titch (PORT) or Fyfe (COLL) this week.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Can see Titch absolutely carving out a big score against port. We always seem to give up big scores to these accumulator type players

But also new recruit rocky after the bye rest and back to form....

 

[samFFC]

One last chance for Macrae to redeem?

 

[SM]

One last chance for Macrae to redeem?

Last chance?? He's had one off score and still hit 113!

 

[Chris99]

Can't go past Mitchell this week down in Tasmania v Port. Played Port 4 times, once as a Hawk. 118 last year and 139 (2016), 105 (2015) and 81 (2013) before that. Gets ugly now though. Averages 133 at UT Stadium. Past 5 games has scored; 147, 118, 143, 132 and 125.

 

[bl4ke]

Surely it's either out of Gawn (vs Bulldog's non existent ruckmen) or Grundy (vs Freo without a concussed Sandilands)

 

[Joao]

If I had Grundy he'd be mine. Could go 180 against nobody.

Worry about the Ebert tag for Titch and Jones for Macrae.

Fyfe is a shout because Pies don't seem to care what opposition mids do.

Currently got Gawn skipper but it's out of him and Mitchell in my team. Grundy would be a no brainer though if I had him.
