Alright time we take a look at possible captains for the upcoming round in the hope they may do us just enough favours to have our teams keep climbing the rankings! Fixture for Round 18 is as follows: St.K v Adel @ Etihad Nth.M v Bris @ Etihad Syd v W.B @ SCG G.C v Coll @ G.C Stad. Ess v Carl @ MCG Geel v Rich @ Etihad Mel v Haw @ MCG Freo v W.C @ P.Stad. Port have the bye(Wouldn't effect too much i'd say)
My biggest questions involving the obvious captains choices would be... Will Pendlebury play against Gold Coast? If so you have to lock the C on him! Will Ablett dominate against a team that may show him little respect around the ground? Will Swan continue his good form since returning from the states? Will Judd run riot on the MCG yet again this year, this time against the Bombers? Will Hodgey or Buddy get ahold of the Dees? Will Cox have it all his own way againt Griffen(Sandi a 50-50 chance to play)?
I'd also chuck Petrie v Bris in there. In great touch and Played well against the lions in the wet last time. Could score huge on Maguire after JPod kicked a lazy 8 on the weekend against him
Dal Santo v Crows. They will try to clamp down on Montag after last week, so I expect Dal to have huge one.
McEvoy vs Jacobs Hippy, big forwards dont seem to score much against Gold Coast due to the All Australian Nathan Bock in their backline!!! Would think Swan or Pendles would be a pretty safe bet.
If sandi doesnt play, cox in the derby could have a huge one. Opposing ruckman are really struggling this year against the nic nat/ cox combo. Even the in form ben mcevoy could only manage 66 last week
@Dun1 Yeah, Nicky Dal has averaged about 130 against the Crows in recent times, like the last 3-5 matches @hawks2008 Yeah Cox could be a good option if Sandi doesn't get up @hippy Gold Coast have Nathan Bock @NumberWonGuns Yeah I think Petrie could go well against Goose Maquire. James Podsiadly kicked 8 this week and a few weeks ago Jay Schulz kicked 7 on him! @Me Going Jed Adcock, versing all bottom teams in my Leagues this week, and think that he could be a smokie. But I think Swan, Joey, Goddard or Pendles if I bring him in this week.
@Fez Nah, planning to go Montagna who I have the Yellow C on now, but if I do my single trade of the week of Mzungu/Smith>>Pendles then Pendles might get the nod, I think I need a perma-captain in my side.... @NedFlanders Not crazy at all. Dale Thomas would be a good smokey option when others would be going for Pendles, Swan & Ablett.....
Depending on how Pendles gets up, its mainly just a choice between him Swan and Daisy who is hitting his prime. Sainter if your going with Adcock, is there some inside information your not telling? You seem pretty shaw of that call.
Nope, No Inside Information........I Don't Think - However I Do Know Where He'll Be Starting, Although Not Keen To Follow Through With The Decision.....
Daisy a chance to just do what he likes this week. No obvious chaser to keep up with him by the looks.
