Captains Captains Thread

Gawn C, have to play it safe.
Danger- can't captain him after 2 x 60s already this year
Grundy- enough doubt and rumour of injuries

Nothing surer than Gawn not tonning up and Danger/Grundy going 140+, just bookmark it.

 

[Shadow89]

Bit nervous with Danger, might be a late out with the birth due? Or am I jumping at Shadow89

Haha I see what you did there...

The way I see it, I'm getting a 92 from Gaff either way, so it's a risk, but not a massive risk. Danger said she should be due in about two weeks, so this week should be fine. It's basically a 1 in 14 chance that it happens this Saturday, so I'm happy with those odds

 

[_Cayz_]

Nice week for your VC to go bang then! Yeo made the choice easy for you.

Yep!

Taking Yeo.

 

[Shadow89]

Wouldn't Danger's missus have stayed in Geelong? So Danger should play even if she gives birth tomorrow? Or would he fly back before the game...?

He said it's not due this week anyway but who knows.

He definitely would fly back. Wouldn't surprise me if he had tickets booked already, just in case

Who’s keen to go Jake Lloyd with me for some Friday night entertainment

 

[Shadow89]

Yeah...so...I take it all back:



This is problematic

Brian Taylor called last night’s game in Perth so I’m assuming he’s not calling tonight? I honestly think that’s the deciding factor as to whether I put the C on Lloyd instead of Gawn.... will be so much more fun if every touch your captain gets is followed with a LLLLLLLLLLLOYD call from BT.

Isn't it raining there? Seagulls don't like rain do they?

 

[Zevon]

They don't. No rain up here at the moment though. It's actually a perfect night for footy at the moment. So I'm leaning more and more towards Lloyd as we close in on lockout.

The Seagull is about to become the C-gull... get it get it??

I just want to sit down and enjoy a swans win. Will treat myself with a day off from thinking about fantasy...Lloyd better ton up though, but not too big.

Radar looks like the rain is going to miss Sydney aswell, im locked in.

Who's your captain though?
I feel this info should be a defining factor for everyone else.
Danger is playing if you're still considering him.

I'm not usually a negative Nancy but it feels like it's one of those ones that's going to bite me no matter what I do. If I go Lloyd then the Hawks will send someone to him, or it will rain, or he'll get injured, or all of the above.. then Gawn will go 140+ tomorrow.

If I go Gawn then Lloyd will run riot tonight with no one within a hundred yards on him and Gawn will be uncharacteristically flat tomorrow and limp to 80-something.

Yesterday I said Grundy, but now decided to switch to Gawn. Grundy has the risk of being a late out. I am so confident of Grrundy going 150 now and Gawn will somehow not ton up.
Danger a good pick but I can't pick him after what he has done to me this year, twice. Just can pick him as C even when he is in form, cursed

I feel the exact same... That's why I've decided Im just going with Lloyd given the fact if he scores poor Ill forget about it tonight anyway and it wont ruin the weekend.

 

[JADED]

I'm going with Lloyd, first week in my team this year (usually spells let down)

Gawn is a sure thing for 130+.. I fear (for price rises) prediction 147.

No...please explain

Oh, now i get it

BT is on, first time I’ll ever cheer BT being on air

Yeah that seals it. Llllllllllloooooooooooyd gets the C.

Thursday night brings a few VC candidates.
Taranto, Kelly, Coniglio, Merrett.

No DeBoer to tag Merrett.
Worth noting that midfield bull Elliot Yeo top scored for West Coast against Essendon last Thurs so maybe Taranto is the similar type. He'll get my VC.

 

[GussyCanHaveMyKids]

Kelly or Taranto for the VC this week?

 

[Ah12]

Coniglio (161 last time they played) into danger/macrae

 

[Ah12]

Kelly or Taranto for the VC this week?

I like taranto, kelly or cogs could have dyl clarke restricted them from that huge ceiling this week

 

[Crashy]

I only have one choice Thursday night, Taranto it is
