Round 21 Captain - Make or Break

[footyfan_25]

Captain choice will make or break many this week.

Who is everyone going?

Ill decide between ...

Ablett (If I trade him in. Has found form again and score 180 against Nth in Rd 11)

Franklin (Eagles defence very poor. Would be looking to get his 100 out the way)

Riewoldt (Has rarely let me down so far, was a great choice this week. Will get Bock or Rutten im guessing)

Cox (always good at home. Hawks rucks are nothing special)

J.Brown (Blues defence not the best either. Loves the Gabba)

Pav (Coming off a shocker. Beware the underrated Tigers backline )

 

[OneEyedHawk]

Definately Ablett for me. Riewoldt is in rare form, but lil' Gaz is the master.

B Franklin....... 1 vote

N Riewoldt.......2 votes

G............Ablett....3 votes


(boomer only misses cause he'll cop the pink pig)

 

[Ex President]

Either Ablett or Richo for me.

Ablett 180 vs Kangas last time, Richo v Freo, Goodesy and Roo have spanked the Freo defence the last two weeks.

 

[sblack]

Brown + Carlton + Gabba = HUGE score. Last time @ Gabba, Round 16 2007- Brown 155 DT 177 SC... 20p 14m 10.1.
Last game vs. Carlton, Round 8 2008- 133 SC

Lock the Browndog in

 

[Judd_Magic]

Yeah I'm going for Browndog too, he seems my best choice for captain this week. Bit weary of Franklin, Cox and Pav so think I will give it to Johnny!

Lock it in Eddie, lock it in!

 

[IDIG]

Gaz for me. I chose Roo last week to see where he was at and although it worked out well, the little maestro seems to be in top SC nick.

Brown a close second.

 

[Headless]

Franklin or Ablett?

Killing me, I'll be changing it continuously all week...

 

[Flashhh]

For me its out of Gaz, Brown or Buddy.

Gaz looks to be back and has burnt me many times before (254 and last week's 155).
Brown loves the Blues at the Gabba but he is capable of pulling out a 22 as he id against the Hawks and that would mean curtains on my prelim.
And Buddy well, he's Buddy. He could kick 12 and score 200+ but he could kick 0.6 and have 9 clangers.

 

[johno_1989]

Atm going for Gazza, but still thinking about going franklin

 

[JasRulz63]

Looking at G.Ablett, will be sweet if he scores well, because my opponent traded him out a few weeks ago.

 

[TheWiseOne]

With all the talk about the Hawks going to Franklin a lot yesterday (And yes they did go to him every time it was shocking..) I will not be shocked if he only kicks 2-3 and passes a lot off... Roughead to kick 8 this week

But yea i am going with Ablett

Roos will try to curb ablett, they won't do the same mistake like last time.........gazza will still get his 100 i guess but wont be the stud we're all looking for.

They all try and curb Ablett.

He is "un-curbable"!!

 

[camsmith]

Is anyone else worried about Rawlings shutting down Ablett? I know it didn't happen last time but it could be different this time around.

I'm tossing up between Brown or Ablett.

 

[PowerOfThePussy]

I'm sure Ablett will be a big focus for the Kangaroos, however he is still very very difficult to stop. He uses the ball so well that Geelong players always look to dish off to him when they can, and he can get his own ball easily enough anyway.

Last time against the Kangaroos, I remember a couple of their players stating that they decided in the 1/2 time break I think it was that they would try to just corral him because he was so evasive and difficult to tackle. That didn't work out great for them either, so I am sure Laidley being the tactician that he is will be working on something to stop him. Whether he can find something is a different story altogether though.

 

[boppin]

Franklin to score his first 200+ this week

 

[Judd_Magic]

Franklin to score his first 200+ this week

What makes you say that?

Would have to have huge balls picking him against Glass over at Subiaco.

J.Brown seems the safest bet for me I think.

 

[boppin]

buddy will love the open spaces at subi and the hawks are keen with buddy to get the 100 over with, Glass is good but no match for buddy

 

[Parasite]

Either that or they will react to the overuse of Franklin on the weekend and direct all their kicks to Roughhead. Franklin is not going to be my captain, no sirree.

Hence why I am going with J.Brown.

I can see him scoring 130 + easily against our backline at the Gabba.

I predict he will score 164 points.

If I was Woosha I would have one instruction for my backline this week: "Buddy DOES NOT get his hundred playing us!!"

Seasons over for WCE but I think this would be a goal of theirs.

 

[boppin]

time will tell. He fires after a bad game. Capt for me

 

[Spudregus_87]

Franklin or Ablett?

Killing me, I'll be changing it continuously all week...

Atm going for Gazza, but still thinking about going franklin

flip a coin lads...... i think you'll win with both

 

[The Grover]

Brown - should score well against Blues
Ablett - Rawlings will do a better job this time
Bartel - should score well as usual
Franklin - hawks will go to Roughead more this week.

If I trade Richo in, he could have a massive game.


I'll decide between J.Brown,Bartel & Richo.
