Same here.

Not going GAJ due to injury concern and I don't think Swan will have it as easy this week

 

[CrozaN]

SJ as well.

 

[nefarious]

Stevie J.

 

[JDWCE]

might as well change the name of this thread to "who will not be captainng sir stevie j this week?"

 

[frello02]

Nice work on the stats. its hard to not go with sj after reading that

 

[Nyaaamate]

gablett will score over 150

 

[lmach]

gablett will score over 150

If he plays...

 

[Forward Press]

If he plays...

I think so too. I'm thinking GAJ (c) and SJ (vc).

SJ can be a bit up and down at times but as your stats have proven he often pulled out monster games against weak sides at home.

Chasing big scores this year from players other than Swan or Ablett has killed me. Everytime I do it Swan or Ablett get 130+ and the player who SHOULD go big against a shit team does not and it backfires.

Will be putting the C on Swan. Crows are terrible and have no good taggers to shut down Swan, Pendles and Beams. Swan with get 150+

Having Gaz as a slightly more unique captain than usual it seems, now that's an opportunity too good to pass up.

I find that the BOM is a more reliable source.

nah what would they know

 

[Butler]

Was looking forward to Swan being a more unique captain this week but then Calvin put him as his number 1 choice meaning a lot of sheep will also be going with Swan.

Undecided on SJ or Swan.

 

[Suma Magic]

I find that the BOM is a more reliable source.

Every other site has 90% chance of 10-20mm.

Bom has now changed from 'patches of rain' to 'areas of rain'.

I find the bom undersells expected precipitation in their description.

[VSTone]

Baaa!

 

[Ess_don]

Locked and loaded SJ all week.. but now all this rain talk has me worried. Shouldnt bother Stevie too much should it?

Same here... I knew I shouldn't of checked this thread. I'm gonna go with my gut instinct and back SJ. Second guessing has costed my badly this year

Yeah ive taken it off Ablett twice and ive regretted it, and every time i think to myself "when will i learn my lesson?"
Obviously not this week. Swan is locked and loaded!

 

[Crawb]

Hate Friday Night Captains...but just going with Swan for the dry certainty. Was 50/50 between him and SJ anyway.

 

[CACA_TAZZA]

I too play the chasing the Captain game every week. I also told myself to NEVER EVER take the C off either Swan or Gaz, but but somehow I still like to go against myself, and suffered as a reslt (C on Watson last week, nuff said!!)

Had the C on Swan all week until I came into this thread 20 mins before the game starts. Now I am tossing up between Swanny or SJ, urgghhh!

Screw this, I'm going to back myself for once, Swanny you better do me (and the Pies) proud!
