Round 18 Captains

[Cynic]

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

Second to Sydney by my stats but wouldn't say that's material.

I'll be going Swan too.

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?

This is the one that's got me thinking the most!

Goddard at Etihad:

Average over last 2 seasons: 115.3

Has scored over 110 13 times out of his last 20 games at Etihad.

Has scored under 100 only 3 times out of his last 20 games with scores of 97, 92 and 73.

Averaging 120 from his last 4 at Etihad this season.

And his averaging 114 in his last 3 games.

To sum it up, he is in great touch and LOVES Etihad..oh and he also averages 109 in his last 7 against the Crows

Yes...i done a bit of research

****, why did I have to read this? I'll probably make Goddard Captain now and he'll score 70

His almost certain to score low now after i convinced myself to make him captain

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

Gonna go Pavlich this week. He'll be fired up for a big one against the Eagles, particularly after losing the earlier Derby this year.

 

[BluesMan]

I wouldn't think they'd sub Swan because he just came back from his "break" from Arizona. I doubt he will be subbed.

All good uniques who could score big this week, huggy.

Petrie v Bris?
Mitchell v Melb?
NRoo v Adelaide?
Boyd v Sydney?
Murphy v Essendon?
Bartel v Richmond?

are all also worth considering...

 

[Benno_900]

I wouldn't think they'd sub Swan because he just came back from his "break" from Arizona. I doubt he will be subbed.

They're just convincing themselves otherwise to be "different".

Lock him in for 130+.

 

[lmach]

Anyone thinking Pendles will get subbed?

 

[James]

Anyone thinking Pendles will get subbed?

Good chance if Pies are up by 80 @ 3/4 time. Should still be good for 100+ but I wouldn't be making him Captain just in case..

Yeah i think i will stick with Godds

 

[bigburger]

I own Swan and Thomas and at this stage I am leaning towards Thomas.

 

[huggy_b]

I've decided I am probably over-thinking it and will stick with my initial gut feel of Swan. I looked over my opponents team and they will probably go with Mitchell (who I dont have). Everythings crossed.....

 

[WakeUpPies]

No reason to sub Swan, if anything they need to play him more to get him back to his peak fitness.

 

[Covvy]

I'm going Montagna tonight. Should score pretty decent because they won't tag him.

 

[Fitzey]

I'm Going with Cox, AVG: 90 against Freo.

 

[BigVic]

Swan. Enough said. Will get 40+ possessions against the Suns.

 

[Covvy]

At half-time I was cursing myself for picking Montagna and not Goddard. Turned out alright at least for me.

[Pure_Ownage]

Went Swan, too worried about Pendlebury being subbed.
