I can start Burgoyne as Emg this week as he has the first game. Then have the option of moving Langdon on the field for Cutler if Burgoyne puts out a score in the 70's. But if Burgoyne scores over 80, I'd be inclined to leave Cutler on the field and use Burgoyne's emergency score. That sounds great in theory, but three of my backs play on Sunday! With the high frequency of players being late outs, I'm going to be extremely concerned until the last final teams come in, especially with someone like Bartel up against the Dogs in Geelong. Burgoyne has only scored below 80 on 4 occasions this year with 72, 74, 75 and 76. So if Langdon scores his average I should only miss out on about 10 points in a worst case.
Do I go for broke and use the loophole or do I play it safe and keep Langdon as my emergency?

Luckily I have Petrie as emergency in the first game, so providing no changes in my forward line, I can take a look at his score (85+) and then throw Cameron on or hope Walker smashes GWS. However Cameron is not a suitable captain choice as Adelaide play before GAJ, Hartung plays first and the only possible captain choices from Haw/Nth are Burgoyne, NDS or Petrie - all unlikely to go over 140. This means I am forced to use King in my captain loophole and SMartin becomes deadwood as R4 since Brisbane also play before GAJ! Do I skip EL in rucks in favour of CL this week?
Edit: I think I know the answer to both these questions after writing this all down, but there it is
