2011 Captains Mega Thread (Part 1)

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Oh dear, what am i doing. moved the C off Swan and put it on Goddard.

Goddards last 2 against Richmond 144 and 188.

Swans last 2 against Nth 127 and 127.

At least i've got 5 and a half hours to swap it 752 times.

I think which ever way i go they will be within 30 or so of eachother anyway. (I'll just keep telling myself that)

Re: Round 2 - Captains

At the moment I have Swan however I am playing my mate who I really want to beat and he has not got Judd in his side and knowing my mate how I know him he will have Swan captain. Gold Coast wouldn't have a match up for Judd. He'll run rings around them. Also considering BJ since he does whatever he wants against the Tigs. I hate Supercaoch FML

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Goddard loves Richmond.

 

[coryne]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

The HS has Goddard averaging 151 points against the Tigers in his last 3 games, and Swan 113 against North. Still don't think I can bring myself to moving the C from Swan .............

 

[Kopout]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Sure Goddard has a good record against the Tigers, but the last four games between the two teams have been under the Etihad roof. Goddard is a great player (and I don't have a stat to back this up), but are we sure he's as dependable under lights on the MCG as he is at Etihad?

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Collingwood are likely to steal points off each other - Goddard for me.

They were stealing points off each other last week and Swan managed 166. Good theory though!!

Didn't seem to stop too many picking Ablett at the cats.

 

[Premiership Quarter]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Does Rawlings usually get the job on Swan? He's an impressive tagger, though going by the points quoted earlier hasn't really stopped Swan scoring well.

 

[Marc Shmurf 3]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Been told Rawlings will be playing through the midfield. Can only imagine that to tag either Swan or Pendles.

Be going Judd thanks, but tough decision.

 

[fairdinkum]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Rawlings now plays as a back pocket, so won't be tagging Swan.

Anyhow, I seriously considered going with Ryder (vs Mumford on his own), but have decided on Gibbs. How will the young Coasters stop him?

 

[LeighBrownlow]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Swan is virtually untaggable, he would most likely tag Pendlebury.

 

[EatBig Australia]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

I am playing a mate who I know has Goddard as skipper. I had Goddard but think I should change because I reckon his side is slightly better than mine so I reckon it's worth a punt to try and make up some ground. I don't have Swan or Sandi in my team...

Tossing up between Pendles, Gibbs or even a couple from left field Krakouer or Mumford (who with Seaby dropped will get a ridiculous amount of game time....)

 

[Shane_Mag]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

I'm sticking with Swan this week. Gary Ablett was tempting but im not sure he will rack up the points like he did at Geelong as he was part of a great midfield that gave him plenty of supply of the ball.

Yeah i'd go Krak if i were you. I am in the same situation. I'm gunna go with a "lefty" as well, C Yarran.

For those of you out there who are reading this; Plogs is the bloke I am playing.

Thanks for the advice mate.

Re: Round 2 - Captains

Captaincy choice is almost breaking me...Gibbs loves beating up weaklings, Goddard is practically superman, and the Juddster vs the GC.

I mean, who have GC got to stop Judd??? Harris? He is like dinga'LING'...way too slow!

So hard...crucual decision...


...

cant breathe!

 

[fryzie]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

I'm going montagna this week in his 150th against the Tigers. Bit of a POD and he could tear them a new one.

 

[The Passenger]

Re: Round 2 - Captains

went goddard. only 102... but it could've been a lot worse. only had 15 touches.

now gonna watch swan and murphy carve up... my two other choices i was considering.

 

[Super Hans]

Round 3 Captains

Who is looking like your captain next week? Given what the Blues just did to the suns I will most likely pick my only bulldogs premium in crossy!

 

[IDIG]

Re: Round 3- Captains

Mine will be Swan although I hate making my captain a Friday nighter.

Selwood v Port @ Skilled has a night ring to it too

EDIT: Selwood averages 120 @ Skilled over the last 2 years over 14 games!

 

[Big Fozza]

Re: Round 3- Captains

Swan keeps it till he pucks up

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Re: Round 3- Captains

Swan (C)

 

[IDIG]

Re: Round 3- Captains

Just having a look at Swanny's numbers v Carlton.

Averages 113 over 11 games. Last 3 - 152, 113, 136. Yes please.
