I was looking at one of the top teams, exactly the same except he had Bowey D6 instead of fatty and he had Dunks skip every week

Nailing our captain is so hard

Thinking Neale VC but wondering how much this is influenced by the fact that I have the night off work and want some more excitement while I watch... Typically those choices end poorly. Better than trading in Taylor Adams for the same reason though, I guess.

The Pies don't do much tagging do they? Has McRae changed anything?

I just don't think Neale has that big of a ceiling. He has 30 touches a game but doesn't get many marks or tackles. I might look foolish at the end of the night but I'm expecting 110ish.
 
Point taken; I'd take 110 but I wouldn't be excited about it, I guess.

But I do think he has a ceiling where he's in a position to turn it on. IDK how many points he scored in the second half a few weeks ago, but it was a game that needed someone to step up and lead, and he did it — tackles, goals, constant running etc. I'd be surprised if it was less than an 85-point half all said and when a guy can do that I have at least a little confidence in his overall prospects.

I'm not sure I'd bet on anything higher than 110 though if I had to put money on it.

But I'm not sure why I'm arguing with you given that I actually want to be talked out of it! 🙃

How did you go? 115 is a coin flip decision I think.

It's Neale 119 or punt on Macrae/Dunkley.

I reckon it's more likely than not that Macrae beats 119, but last week I begrudgingly banked Neale's 128 in supercoach instead of going Cripps captain - and look how that worked out.

Always the play to take a good score just in case an injury happens, right?

The potential downside has to be greater than getting a 130ish from MacRae & only gaining 10-20 extra

Trying to decide between Steele (may get tagged by Rowell ??), Miller (not likely to be tagged, but playing dogshit), Bray (not sure if he can cope with the burden) or Max (good last week, but a one off ?).
If I had Bray (you know the story there… :() I would have the C on him for sure. Look at what Laird, Keays, Oliver and Neale did to Essendon in recent weeks. Petracca’s the only one to really miss out against them

It's always a risk picking someone you haven't captained before.....

I'll risk it. My season is ****ed anyway....

I will of course be blaming you Zevon when it all goes horribly wrong and I'm left with Answerth as Captain somehow !!!
Listening to me…

Would they bother tagging Steele?

I've got the Dunkley/Macrae VC thing the wrong way every single round so far, as a result Steele's been my captain every week.

111 captain average isn't the worst result
