Captains 2026 Round 9 VC/Captain

[Northernsoul74]

2 of my 3 Ruckmen, now who to choose...Xerri, Brodie or Jacko?

Can I have one?

 

[Caztheconquerer]

Butters into Baz

 

[The Tip Jar]

Model has Gawn as the standout this week. 140 SC projection vs West Coast, highest ceiling available. Jackson is the obvious VC loop play but if you don't have the loop, Gawn straight C is hard to argue with.

Bont (122) and Xerri (119) are the best mid options if rucks are covered. Butters at 113 is solid but not the ceiling play he is some weeks.

Since I'm not getting Bont...

VC Butters
C Kozzy

 

[AFDogs]

Jackson into N Daicos for now. Might change Daics to Heeney.

 

[Scythe]

Jackson into Holmes

 

[sabso]

Jackson into gawn atm. Will have time enough to change C to someone shit

How can I get Xerri into my midfield?

 

[No eye deer]

Where is everyone bragging about their Bont pick?
Must have all gone Butters, like me.
Oh well, can’t complain about 130 I suppose.

Yep 130 is fine

Cooked my VC options and didn't even have a loop option anyway...
So now it's basically Grundy vs Xerri or Gawn vs West coast....
Thoughts?

I'd go X out of those three. I wouldn't be surprised if Grundy and Gawn are both tired and/or sore from the last few weeks

I don't have Xerri I was just referring to the matchup
