Marshall with 99 is the closest any of my players have got to 100.

Also, had the VC on Stewart until 5 minutes before Saints game and went Marshall. Not looking like a great week.
Don't want to burst ya bubble but he got scaled down to 98 :( I had him as VC!
I actually had Sicily in my team for an hour or so this morning! Grrr
Mullin looks the goods in his first game, 40 points from ten touches….

wont be the worst selection at $102k if he plays across the byes…
Hard to take him next week surely! Second game then the bye could be unsighted after the bye?

Outrageous to bring him in and field him unsighted, looking good for you so far, his vfl form wasn't great either was scoring 50's Fantasy wise at least.
I took a punt getting him (I have him on the E, someone else did straight on field), but I also had a look at some of his vfl and Gaelic football highlights, which gave me some confidence in him over Cowan who I traded him out for.

How do we think English matches up against Witts?
This looks to be the most recent game in which they’ve largely played on each other, and doesn’t look great for English (hitouts 46-14). English has improved a lot in the last 3 years, of course:

In general I would say that they score in different ways, but Witts seems hard for most to score against.

I didn’t seriously consider English for the captaincy, if that’s an indication. Merrett seems like he could go big though if he’s on.

Thanks for that, he's definitely improved since then and Witts has gone backwards. Just summing up whether I captain him.
