I passed on T Mitchell and VCd Macrae

Without Gawn and Neale in my side the Captaincy is a tough one.

I currently have it on Oliver but have mulled over (in no particular order) Llloyd, J Kelly (if traded in) and Grundy. Hopefully I make the right call.

 

[Maccas marvels]

I’m thinking left field Captain selection in Lloyd, whilst his recent record against power isn’t strong they have only played twice in past 2 years..... his recent form and rampe our has me thinking he can get 130plus today.....

 

[Beast_Mode]

Opponent captained Macrae. Will play it very safe this round and take Mitchell's score.

 

[Mudflap]

Taking Titches VC score. Have the C on Macpherson. My live score shows Titch as 122. Have an opponent that has the VC on Titch and the C on Neale. His live score shows titch as 244. Anyone know why one counts the bye player as a zero and the other doesnt (will change at some point I assume)

Strange. I've got mine on Laird, and it's doubled. I'm assuming you're referring to Adelaide's McPherson?

yeah correct. Did you have it on him at the start of the round? Maybe because I switched just before the Port V Syd game. Also has not counted my Mills score with the E on

No, I moved it from Neale to Laird when I moved Neale off the ground. Could have to do with how many players you have onfield, and will clock over eventually? Not sure.

Funny. When I move McHenry on the field and put the C on him it gives Titch 244. Must be some glitch that has not locked out Macpherson

Now considering putting the C on Oliver....... 20 minutes to make a decision (not based on the Macpherson issue)

 

[Zimmer]

Jeez that puts me off bringing him in this week as well.

Well Lloyd's history against Port was not a good indicator; but still would have been a trade wasted that I couldn't afford.

Did you put the C on Oliver @Mudflap?

No. Did not. Would have been a crazy game for it.... absolutely bleeding at him for 2 and a half qtrs and then watching him fly home

 

[BomberSam]

Grundy vs. Cripps?

 

[Zimmer]

Grundy vs. Cripps?

Cripps.

Same thing that happened with Grundy last week is likely to happen. Cox and Cameron seem to be there to help manage his TOG through the short turnarounds.

 

[WindyHillWizard]

Was just looking at Kelly for a C option. Remarkably he only has a 84 average against Freo!

Very timely post @Juzzo. Thanks to you I dodged a bullet. Hopefully others also took note.

Putting the Big C on Grundy today.

I didn't predict injury, and he was travelling good prior, anyway, glad it helped you. I took Macrae in the end.
