Round 18 Captains

[BigVic]

Who is going to be your captains in round 18?

Swan. Dane Swan for me. Will smash it against the Suns.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Swan or Pendles, its a real shame its another Dream Team bye week, was looking forward to a monster score

Huh? Only port have the bye, so it's not a DT league bye. We'll all have full-strength teams, so it should be good fun =D

D.Swan

Looking at 50+ possessions from him on Saturday night.

 

[Ess_don]

Watch Swan gets subbed out at HT for a rest.. but doesnt really matter as everyone will have had him Cpt anyway, just like this week not too disappointed at barely scraping the ton as all my opponents had him and the majority of the DT world.

Wonder how many Pies players will be "sore" after their "tough" game vs Blues..

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Mitchell

 

[Rudeurrection]

Chris Masten or Cale Morton.

These two top 5 draft picks will have dominate this week.

I was spewing i took the captaincy off Jack Ziebell last week but Bryce Retzlaff's match up was just to good to ignore.

oh well, live and learn.

Another score of 2500 coming up.

Tossing up between Swan and Mitchell, but will most likely opt for Swan. Steering away from Pendles, as he is a strong candidate for a rest this week.

 

[Jezza Jenkins]

There is no question. D SWAN!~

 

[Tippaz]

(c) Swan
(vc) Pendlebury

this poll is heading in the one direction

 

[Jezza Jenkins]

Petrie vs Brisbane could be a nice unique choice...

 

[lmach]

No Hodge?

My options:

Pendlebury - likely to be rested
Boyd
Ablett
Hodge
Priddis
Thompson
Cloke - Looking very tasty v suns
Goddard

Any suggestions please?

Petrie vs Brisbane could be a nice unique choice...

Jezza, there's clearly potential in Petrie but I don't trust him as captain. I'll be very happy if he goes bang and gives us another 146 (he's my second ruck), but he's just as likely to give us a 60. I couldn't do it myself, but it's a gutsy move and it could set you apart if you do it

 

[Benno_900]

The Collingwood mids could still beat him even if he scores 140+ (which he won't).

 

[Robbo88]

Montagna is back in business and should outscore swan this week

 

[BluesMan]

No Hodge?

My options:

Pendlebury - likely to be rested
Boyd
Ablett
Hodge
Priddis
Thompson
Cloke - Looking very tasty v suns
Goddard

Any suggestions please?

Bock is in pretty decent form and will go to Cloke. Bock is far better than hendo, and what he can dish up.

 

[JBrooker03]

Bock should do a decent job on Cloke.

Anyone have large enough balls to go Krakka? Small forwards generally score very well against GC, and this could gain more momentum after selection if the rumours about some of the collingwood midfield guns being rested is true.
He could be up for 30pos and 5 goals!

I, however, certainly dont and will be going Swan (C)!

Oh yes.. i forgot about Bock

Tossing up between Goddard and Pendlebury now. Goddard is in great form and LOVES Etihad, plus Adelaide havent really got anyone to go with him. On the other hand, Pendles could be rested or subbed off.

 

[Spider Klein]

I will be going Swan. Not unique but

of all teams collingwood use the sub the latest.

Late sub means Collywobbles will sub someone if they have been working hard and game is in the bagg (Like Daisy, Swan will only get subbed if he has a ton already)

Swan had the extra week rest in the US so as far as rest goes it is more likely to be Pendles (if anyone, it really is speculation)

My thoughts anyway

 

[Main Man]

D.Thomas.

 

[jonesy86]

Gazza, Pies never tag and he always racks them up against us.

 

[Magic33]

Swan, although I'd be surprised if he gets a monster 150+ like a few are predicting.
As a player, being 12 goals up at half time (which may well happen) doesn't exactly motivate you to come out and have a big second half.
He should still get us a 120 though which I will take from my captain every time

 

[huggy_b]

The more I read this week, the more I suspect that the Pies will rest a few and run a few of the lesser players through the midfield and park the likes of Swan and Pendlebury on the bench/sub or in the forward line.

Goddard v Adelaide?
Cox v Freo?
Chapman v Richmond?
Franklin v Melbourne?
