Alright, so it seems that Jasmine has been whisked way for a few weeks for work related duties- sheesh, whoda thunk that being an international arms smuggler come secret agent would have such an effect on SuperCoach!?

Now, taking a quick look around the traps, Im kinda tempted to just lock in Swan v the Tigers, then go to lunch (or as its known at this hour, brinner - how I love brinner...), but I would hate to incur the wrath of Jasmine when she gets back!

Swan v. Richmond

Round 17, 2010 - 190 SC, 34 disposals.
Round 20, 2009 - 149 SC, 34 disposals.
Round 3, 2008 - 69 SC, 18 disposals.
Round 19, 2007 - 51 SC, 13 disposals.
Round 3, 2007 - 132 SC, 35 disposals.

Current form: 142, Ave against Richmond in last 3: 136

Notes: Well, there was a time where Richmond restricted Swan, but that was a long time ago. Lock him in and dont look back.

Pendlebury v. Richmond

Round 17, 2010 - 84 SC, 30 disposals.
Round 20, 2009 - 116 SC, 31 disposals.
Round 3, 2008 - 87 SC, 21 disposals.
Round 3, 2007 - 92 SC, 16 disposals.

Notes: Like Swan, has racked up the possessions against richmond of late, but hasnt seemed to score a decent reward for it.

Current form: 125, Ave against Richmond in last 3: 96

Hodge v. West Coast

Round 7, 2010 - 128 SC, 22 disposals.
Round 13, 2009 - 111 SC, 31 disposals.
Round 5, 2009 - 115 SC, 26 disposals.
Round 14, 2008 - 110 SC, 23 disposals.
Round 9, 2007 - 146 SC, 23 disposals.

Notes: While I doubt anyone is currently holding Hodge, prior form dictates that he aint gunna be getting any cheaper for an upgrade for us.

Ave against West Coast: 118, Ave at ground: 137

Mitchell v. West Coast

Round 13, 2009 - 160 SC, 40 disposals.
Round 5, 2009 - 147 SC, 40 disposals.
Round 21, 2008 - 91 SC, 34 disposals.
Round 14, 2008 - 87 SC, 27 disposals.
Round 9, 2007 - 57 SC, 16 disposals.

Notes: Has absolutely torn it up against the West Coast the last few times theyve played- if the injury rumours turn out to be false, definitely look to Mitchell as a captain option this week.

Ave against West Coast: 132

Cox v. Hawthorn

Round 7, 2010 - 112 SC, 16 disposals.
Round 5, 2009 - 163 SC, 30 disposals.
Round 21, 2008 - 98 SC, 22 disposals.
Round 14, 2008 - 128 SC, 22 disposals.
Round 9, 2007 - 81 SC, 16 disposals.

Notes: Definitely an astute selection, his current form, form against the Hawks and form in Tasmania all point to Cox having a day out - just be weary of the travel to Sydney last week and the hugely bruising nature of the encounter.

Ave against Hawthorn: 124, Current form: 138, Ave at ground: 138

Priddis v. Hawthorn

Round 7, 2010 - 87 SC, 20 disposals.
Round 13, 2009 - 141 SC, 35 disposals.
Round 5, 2009 - 173 SC, 32 disposals.
Round 21, 2008 - 102 SC, 31 disposals.
Round 14, 2008 - 138 SC, 45 disposals.
Round 9, 2007 - 115 SC, 31 disposals.

Notes: As with Cox, he has a fantastic record against the Hawks in recent days- not that many have him!

Ave against Hawthorn: 133, Current form: 114, Ave at ground: 144

Judd v. Essendon

Round 19, 2010 - 110 SC, 30 disposals.
Round 13, 2009 - 79 SC, 22 disposals.
Round 3, 2009 - 119 SC, 33 disposals.
Round 13, 2008 - 59 SC, 12 disposals.
Round 3, 2008 - 151 SC, 32 disposals.
Round 11, 2007 - 89 SC, 26 disposls.

Notes: While his overal form against Essendon tends to be below his general average, he has been known to carve up the Bombers early in the season a couple of times.

Average against Essendon: 102

Watson v. Carlton

Round 19, 2010 - 101 SC, 20 disposals.
Round 3, 2010 - 119 SC, 26 disposals.
Round 13, 2009 - 64 SC, 16 disposals.
Round 3, 2009 - 123 SC, 20 disposals.
Round 13, 2008 - 81 SC, 27 disposals.
Round 3, 2008 - 38 SC, 16 disposals.
Round 3, 2007 - 84 SC, 19 disposls.

Notes: Carlton really seem to have a knack of restricting Watsons possession count, however, when he does touch it against them, they seem to count- on current form, youd back him to break that cycle, but youd have to be a gutsy player to try it.

Current form: 122

Jude Bolton v. Geelong

Round 18, 2010 - 68 SuperCoach - 18 disposals.
Round 7, 2010 - 65 SuperCoach - 20 disposals.
Round 20, 2009 - 103 SuperCoach - 23 disposals.
Round 7, 2009 - 100 SuperCoach - 21 disposals.
Round 20, 2008 - 75 SuperCoach - 21 disposals.

Notes: Due to his new position, and recent form- it doesnt seem fair to look in the past, but that said, a form line of 145 SuperCoach - so if hes in your squad, you have to consider it.

Current form: 145

Bartel v. Sydney

Round 7, 2010 - 76 SuperCoach - 23 disposals.
Round 20, 2009 - 142 SuperCoach - 32 disposals.
Round 7, 2009 - 78 SuperCoach - 19 disposals.
Round 20, 2008 - 124 SuperCoach - 29 disposals.
Round 5, 2008 - 181 SuperCoach - 27 disposals.
Round 13, 2007 - 52 SuperCoach - 7 disposals.

Notes: Taking a look at Bartels form line against the Swans, Im just not sure if I should give him the C, or put him on the bench! Hes either going to go horrible wrong, or awesomely right.

Current form: 131

My Opinion: Swan. All Swan all the time. I thought he was a little robbed in his score last week, sure- he got a lot of touches when the heat was out of the game, but he also got a bunch when the heat was on- *heaps* more than Dawes who was rewarded for his junk-time touches. Lock him in and nom the delicious 150+

If you dont have Swan, one the the West Coast boys is probably your best bet, and failing that, whoever is the most expensive in your team.

Good luck everyone!
