Captains Captains Thread

I might chuck it on one of the crouchs, everyone has danger so no huge benefit from VCing him

 

[bettingonbetts]

I’m putting the VC on crouch, just have a feeling he’s gonna go BANG this week!

 

[bol316]

Danger VC and Oliver C here. 130 in a tough game with Geelong has me encouraged with Oliver

 

[_Cayz_]

Think I will go Danger over Brouch VC. He loves playing Adelaide.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Think I’ll be VC-ing Sloane, putting the C on Lloyd or Coniglio if need be...

Just to let you know, historically Lloyd hasn't scored very well against Adelaide

 

[JADED]

VC Dangerfield but forgot to take my ruck emergency off Fort (Thurs game)
Could still use Flynn but not sure if it'll count Forts DNP E or English E score for Captain Flynn.

Likely using Macrae anyway. Providing Tauk Miller doesn't tag, should riot his way to a good score.

 

[Beau_Waters for PM]

Going with Macrae, but tempted by Gus Brayshaw too.

 

[Fitzey]

I’m going Gus Brayshaw, keen on him. Predicting the dees to bounce back and Gus to go 130+

 

[mezaire]

Hmmm, is 126 enough from Danger?? The trouble with playing the loop hole game!!!

Edit: 132 is though

 

[happy_eagle]

My non loop options were poor, going with Danger here

 

[Jozzy]

132 from Danger is certainly enough for me to play it safe and pocket the points!

If you have 2 emergencies on one line the lowest score counts, so you’d be looking at a donut if you try to loop Danger.

Someone else posted the rules that a DNP doesn't count as a scoring player.

Right. Give it a crack and see what happens...I’m genuinely interested.

Apparently a zero score wouldn't even be included.
Pretty generous of them.

If I had 2 emergencies,
Bob, scores 0
Ben scores 5.
I'd get Ben's score because a zero wouldn't count.
A score of 1 would count.

From the rules.

• If an Emergency is required, but a Coach has selected two Emergencies in that position, the lowest score of the two Players selected will count. However, Emergencies scoring zero will not be considered the 'lowest-scoring' and will not be used.

I like risk, no probs at all trying Flynn onfield, leaving me with TWO ruck emergencies.
Fort = DNP
English = whatever he scores.

That or I'm happy to gamble Macrae but Im keen to further our fantasy knowledge by trying first scenario.

Hedging your Betts* by not specifying which Crouch though.

Well, I'm in the same boat so if we go down we go down together!

Looks like we should be right though.

I wonder what’d happen if one of the Es posted a negative score (e.g. EVW)? Presumably it wouldn’t count but it’s not clear in the rule you posted.

cue Hore jokes...

Logic tells me to take Dangers score.
Think I'll listen to my head for once and bank the points.

Haha, I forgot no one can see my team. I don’t have Matt

Traders said 16% had him selected as VC
(Although when I just checked it says 23%)
But also, 7% have him as Captain anyway.
Id imagine some of the 23% won't know what the loophole is or not bother with it but if 7 C (& ALL 23VC loophole) then 30% of coaches are banking that 264.

It's a pretty nice captain score and someone here posted that 15points is all that separates 1,000 ranks at some point in the rankings.

It'll be that or Macrae. Dogs/Suns played JLT1 and Macrae had 40 disposals 7 tackles for 131pts,
Wallis, Hunter & Libba all went over 100. I don't have minutes played available for JLT but generally less.

6 swans went 100+ in JLT2

Hill & Fyfe 129/119 last week.

Risk vs reward basically.
I did have the C on Crae but if he gets off the leash a Miller tag will surely come his way.
I have no doubt he'll still go massive against them though.

Thank god Danger went large because I had next to no safe captain options.
