Round 3 Captain

[Papa Juggs]

I'm gonna smoke you all. Woof woof!!!

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Ablett, like the first two rounds. I know as soon as I change he'll score big again so I'm stickin with him.

 

[Big Kitty]

Chad, Kane or Swan.

Not keen on Cox at the dome.

If I trade in Gibbs I might give him the gig though. I reckon the Essendon/Carlton game could be massive for DT scores.

I thought everyone had him

Will probaly go with Cox or Ablett although Lids, Gibbs and Kornes are in contention.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Gibbs most popular choice... now THAT is gold.

had him last week.

going to give Nathan Brown another chance - given it is still DT pre-season.

the doggies play an open game of footy - so should get a few touches.

my only concern is dale morris might pick him up

 

[Dunn - Well Done]

Didnt P.Burgoyne get injured during the eagles game, i saw him on the bench getting his leg looked at. Unsure how serious it is??

I think ill go Ablett, he chopped collingwood in NAB GF so i reckon he can do it again. Collingwood actually dont have anyone similar to him in speed, strength and fitness. Wellingham has always played on him and found himself struggling up against a player in his prime. Unsure who collingwood can put on him, something we should consider.

Who will go to Ablett ??

burgoyne happened right in front of me yesterday - just looked like cramp to me

 

[oddsok]

Although I hate to say it Gibbs is going tear the Dons a new one. Lock for me (y)

 

[lifelike_]

I thought everyone had him

Some of us who could only pick one of Selwood or Gibbs thought (wrongly at this stage) that Selwood was the better option of the two.

Very keen on trading him in, but it all depends on who's named on Thursday.

 

[Hodges]

Im thinking either Ablett, SJ or Cox. Dont think Gibbs will be able to repeat his effort.

 

[beglee]

Why? So you can look at who the most popular choice is and lock him in? No poll is good IMO.

The poll winner last week by a huge distance was GAblett, and that didnt really work out.

 

[Pie Legend]

I dont generally like to pick captains playing against the Pies, but Gablett is tempting.

 

[chickens_law]

Either Boyd or Kornes for me.

 

[Lakey91]

Ah...surely gibbs is due for a score of 80 though? He cant keep scoring at 120s. I know they are different players, but last year, alot of people went heath shaw after his 150 in rounds 4-5. He scored like 25. Id have to say gibbs simply Must be ready for an 80. Well, lets hope so, as i just dont have the guts to pick him.

 

[senrulzisback]

Lakey, mate, he is playing Essendon.
Him and Judd and due for a joint 250+

 

[Lakey91]

Sssshhh.... stop it. It is simply unethical to pick him over the more proven corey, and when everybody else is picking him! It must be!

He doesnt have that great a record against essendon though - his bogey team perhaps?

 

[senrulzisback]

Record Shmrecords......Any gun midfielder that is playing the Dons will dominate.

 

[Juddtastic]

Sssshhh.... stop it. It is simply unethical to pick him over the more proven corey, and when everybody else is picking him! It must be!

He doesnt have that great a record against essendon though - his bogey team perhaps?

Or maybe he wasnt the Bryce Gibbs we know now when he played them before

 

[Lakey91]

Everyone just stop, i cant handle this peer pressure.

Its just not probable for him to score 110+ 3 weeks in a row, and corey is due for a 120.

 

[senrulzisback]

Nah they are both duds. Pick the man on a roll: Richard Hadley.

 

[Knight Ryders]

Yep, I can see Gibbs running around by himself every week gathering 34 possessions with 91% efficiency. I'd expect some tighter tags to be on his way.

 

[senrulzisback]

Who's gonna tag him? Stanton?
Please.

 

[Juddtastic]

Who's gonna tag him? Stanton?
Please.

I don't think he meant this week, he makes a good point though...

FWIW I can't possibly go past Ablett this week, or any other for that matter!

 

[senrulzisback]

Ah well, he's not going to be my captain every week anyway.

 

[Knight Ryders]

I can't see Gibbs getting tagged this week, but I also don't see Carlton getting it all their own way. Generally in these clashes, the underdog performs very well and that would be the Bombers this week. Hocking has been our run with player to date and he could possibly go to Gibbs considering that Judd would be a mismatch with his pace.

You may laugh at Stanton but he is one of the elite runners in the AFL.

 

[senrulzisback]

Stanton is good, actually, he is very good. Just don't see him tagging Gibbs out of the game.
