    I took a punt on Jroo last week, shouldn't have broken my golden rule.... Never select a KPP.
    They can go bang... or with luck like mine they can go fizzle.

    No punt on Jroo DC, either Mundy or Swan for me. Flip of the coin!

    This! If Gazza can manage 198 against the Crows, surely Swan will get right up there.

    Tough one. I reckon Pendles or Swan could go big against Adelaide at Etihad.

    But also the Port ruck ticker is hot and the last time Sandi played against a hot ticker (Richmond) he scored 162.

    Hmmm....

    I went JRoo last week and it cost me two league wins and 1000 spots overall (should have gone J Sellwood).

    Swan for mine and Sandi VC.

    Goodes averages 129 against the Hawks if you're feeling like taking a risk.

    I have a golden rule. No matter how much of a good idea it may seem at the time, NEVER make a key forward captain!

    I don't think Swan is in the greatest form and even if he was he wouldn't pull out a 200 v Adelaide. Ablett was super dynamic, influencing the game when it counted and like the permacap he was for 2 seasons.

    I can still seeing Swan pulling out a 140 though. The difference in the past month for Swan has been the 'tag' he has been getting which didn't really happen last season and Adelaide's tags haven't been particularly effective this season.

    Surely it must be one of Sandi/Swan/Pendles? It would be seriously ballsy going anyone else.

    i'm tossing up between boyd, pendles and deledio (have a feeling he might explode in the dream time!) I've basically had boyd or pendles as locks all season.

    Pendles could go nuts against the crows, but i think i might stick with boyd, having a super year and will need to be bigger than ben hur for the dogs to get within 5 goals of the coasters.

    @turbo

    Yeah, I got cocky after having Sandi as my capt the week before. I convinced myself that JRoo would get at least 120 under the roof at idiot stadium against a depleted Dogs backline....Never again!

    How about The Judd Meister v's the Cattery? Coach Scott reckons that if Lingy plays, he'll tag Judd! That has me rubbing my hands together, what with Lingy being SO slow and everything! And Judd coming off the bye can only be a good thing. Got his last score of 153, (remember?), in that tough slog, in the rain, @ the SCG. Juddy only ever cones off for a serious rest...he's always knackered. Perhaps the bye will top up his tank a bit.
