Round 6 Captain

[Willo #6]

Is Murphy a good choice? Or will he be getting a lot less game time vs GWS?

If Murphy plays I wouldn't worry about game time. With the gut running and rotations a team can't afford to rest someone an abnormal amount of time. Maybe 2-3% less TOG at most. Should be outweighed by how much he can score against GWS.

However is it just me or do super premiums seem a little less interested playing GWS knowing the second tier players will kill it anyway.

Goodes and Boyd are my examples (Boyd still 115 but watched as he was my captain and he was lazy)

Too hard to say mate, anything can happen in this game....like Ellis being subbed instead of Dea last week. Anything can happen....take the punt. He should carve it up either way. They would probably nurse Judd more so than Murphy IMO.

 

[ShueytoGaff]

I don't think they can nurse Judd any more than they already are, seeing he's being rested

I'm worried that if they are 10 goals up they might decide to rest Murphy by subbing him out

 

[1.AW]

Murph won't be subbed out, but I'm sure JMac will go straight to him with juddy having a rest this week. Will this have an impact on his scoring? Well that is for you to decide by placing the C next to his name or not.

 

[mrpig]

Thinking of taking a risk this week and putting the big C on Gibbs. He is one of those players that can get a massive score because he is more of an outside player, and loves getting the uncontested marks. Murphy should attract all the attention of jmac and with judd rested, Gibbs should get more time in the mid. Probably will chicken out at the last minute, but at the moment it is gibbs for me.

 

[Jessbek]

I think it would be more crazy to own Simpson in the first place

Your kidding right? If you picked him, youd be laughing.

 

[Cynic]

Hahaha he's no Redden...

 

[Frankie23]

Slight concern over Pendles, if he cops the Picken tag that could hurt.

I've just bought Barlow, going with him, I think it's a safe bet that he will get 100, and at home, against GC, he has potential to get 125+

It's an away game for us mate. Still, I think it's probably a safe choice regardless.

 

[C_Turn]

What is everyones thoughts on Sammy Mitchell, surely he will bounce back against the saints. My only other options are pendlebury and boyd and i tend to avoid friday night captains for they are cursed.... is this a stupid idea?

 

[Stenglein's a Champ!]

Anyone else considering Scotland? 114 three-round average and up against the Giants.

 

[IDIG]

Argh Picken worries me, anyone else? Feels like a real threat to Pendles at Etihad..not sure why.

I wouldn't worry....and I didn;t

 

[James]

I went with Murphy, will get subbed out in the 3rd for 76 for sure now.

Murphy's a safe choice.

Much better than Ziebell.

 

[bombermick]

Went unique with robbo, but should have picked beams

 

[IDIG]

I don't understand the logic behind choosing beams??? Please explain. With all the options out there why him?

 

[policegetthatman]

110+ Rockliff.

 

[JDWCE]

I ended up choosing Beams as a unique because I wasn't confident in Boyd and the jury was still out on pendles.

Was a gamble that paid off.

The thing that made me pick him was last weeks game. He played a solid game, nothing outstanding, and scored a 120 odd. Looked like he was getting his fitness base back up. Figured he was a safe bet for 100 and Bulldogs don't choke the scores of opposition mids as we have seen in the last few weeks

 

[Jezza Jenkins]

majority midfield time with ball now out + won't get tagged?

 

[James]

Murphy's a safe choice.

Much better than Ziebell.

Watch Ziebell pump out another 140 now to really rub in last weeks Captain's choice.

 

[CrozaN]

Rockliff captain over Stanton.

Seriously......FMDT!

 

[bombermick]

I put the big C on Robbo ... suicidal I know
