I'm not trying to be funny, but that is a 'crystal ball' question, because there are so many factors that can influence a player's performance.
I too am considering those same players, and basing my thinking on;
for the Vice Captain, you choose a player that can score high and for the Captain, you play safe and choose a player that has a high floor.
That is why I am leaning to Bont, his history shows he has a high floor, and can also score high, and playing a bottom side Team. Also, 64 SuperCoaches out of 103, in the Poll above, reckon he is a good choice.
Butters has proven that he can score high, last year he had 7 scores above 129, but he had 9 scores that were below 100, hmmm, too risky for me for a Captain choice.
Heeney has a new role, so past years history is no help. This year, his scores shows that he is a safe Captain choice when playing on the small Sydney home ground, but unknown how he will score on the MCG in his new role. So, I see him being a risky choice.
I'm playing safe, so selecting Bont. I hope you make the right choice.
P.S.
