Round 8 Captain Selection

[phealey]

The footy show mentioned that the weather is looking terrible for the Geelong game, with the possibility of hail. Surely that would put Geelong players out of the picture?

Ablett, Corey and Bartel aren't really affected much, but if the weather turns really ordinary then IMO their scores will most likely be down.

Will be keeping a keen eye on the forecast tonight.

Bartel dominates in the wet.

 

[stylz]

Of the 4 times cross has played freo he has averaged 52.3

no thanks.

 

[MightyIrons]

Salopek for me, was either him or Kane Cornes.

 

[SnIcKeRs #3]

Jonathon Brown for me

no thanks.

Two of those games were in years he averaged 14 and 51.

The last time we played Freo at Subi he picked up 35 touches.

Josh Hill for capt this week, will L-O-V-E the freedom he will get at subi. another good choice would be any essedon backman since the ball will be down there at least 97% of the time. Definatly nooo geelong player as richmond WILL cause upset of the year with a 7 goal hammering of the cats, and expect richo to kick 21.76 with at least 40 posses and 39 marks and 41 kicks. Thus is conclusion bartel the obvious go to man, as he has been my capt every round this year.

 

[Saint KFC]

with at least 40 posses and 39 marks and 41 kicks.

And how does that work?

 

[KouDogg]

Who would you make captain out of Cross or Swan??

 

[DT_fanatic]

^ swanny

im going with shaw though. might toss a coin later on to pick between him and swan later on in the night though lol.

Not biased are we....?

lol, guilty as charged.

but, he averaged 117 @ the dome last yr. cross without west apparently doesnt score as well as he usually does.

But its safe to say Cross wont get tagged and the open space in Subi means he can rack it up at will....

swan never gets tagged either. hmmmmm its a tough one, its got to be your choice really. if you get it wrong atleast you'll have no one to blame but yourself.

He'll be on the bottom of more packs.

Averages 7.3 marks when West's in the team and 3.7 when he's on his own, which works out at a ten point difference.

Lol thanks for that.

I reckon i will stay with Cross because every single time this year i changed Cross from captain he got over 100.

So he obviously doesn't like me changing him as captain, so he gets his wish.....

lets just hope Cross gets a higher score than Swan and if he doesn't then it doesn't really matter.

Edit- ARRRGGGHHH dam you Lifelike i dont like that stat....oh god....now i may have to reconsider.

 

[favourites]

I dunno why but i changed from Corey to Swan, I get the feeling he is going to have a huge night tonight.

Who will cop the Crowley blanket? maybe it will be Cooneys turn..

 

[KouDogg]

K i cant take it anymore and i am going to the gym now, so its my last chance to change captaincy.

So its coin flippin time......heads means Cross captain, tails means Swan........and it is.........tails.

So Swan it is.

 

[force65]

i think i am going to pick heath shaw this week....he should do well against the saints because of their big forward line and push up the field

i also have cross but he has been annoying me this season because he would get a 80 when as captain and then 110+ when i decide to change him

so this week he is going to get 110+ because i am going to pick shaw

That is exactly what happens with me, every single time i have changed him he got over 100. And every single time i have kept him captain he has gotten under 100.

So i couldn't decide what to do so i flipped a coin and Swan won.

I can just tell Cross will get a 150.....

[Deez Baby]

should i go with

shaw
cross
pavlich
didak
m.murphy

? i need help cant decide

 

[Dunn - Well Done]

tossing up between Cross and k.Cornes.
Cross in dry open Subi or K.Cornes in wet hard team hawks at smallish ground Launceston

 

[Mr.Jingles]

Salopek, Cox or Brown.....

so tempted to go Brown, but cox should destroy Kangaroos
and i don't think salopek will be tagged by the hawks and should do some damage there...either way i rekon i won't lose to much with any of them!
