Who For Captain?

[Vinny]

My opponent will have Gaz most likely and it could be the POD between winning so I'm leaning towards one of the other three  for some reason.  :-X

[roo boys!]

Head says Ablett but if you do need a POD leg up on your opponent then Swan has a fantastic history against essendon and I'd be backing him in for another big one.

[GoLions]

If you think you'll definitely need someone different as your captain (and hope Ablett doesn't go massive), then you probably have to go Swan or Pendles. If you think you have a good chance without a POD captain, go with GAJ.

[Vinny]

Thanks Guys.
It is -

Me-
McKenzie Grimes Wilson
Cotchin JPK
Grundy
Zorko JJK Rocky


Him-
48points
Shaw Duffield Pittard
Hodge O'Meara
Leunberger
Roughy Mayes Staker

He will probably have Gaz C. What you think now ?

[GoLions]

Hmmm, think you may have to go with one of Swan/Pendles. Mids and forwards you should have him covered I reckon, defence will be very close, but Leuey should do a lot better than Grundy I would imagine. With a 48 point disadvantage, think you'll definitely need a POD captain, unless of course someone absolutely kills it/spuds it

[Vinny]

Thanks Go Lions ! Looks like I'll go with Swanny :)

Yeah looking at the matchups, I would go Swanny Vinny. Good luck!!!

Some stats to help you Vinny - posted in another thread but added Jack for you

Pendles last 5 against Essendon 136, 140, 125, 130, 160 Average 138
Swans last 5 against Essendon 127, 180,175,106, 176 Average 153
Ablett last 5 against West Coast 87, 154,121,176, 175 Average 143 Last 3 in Geelong colours last years 87 when tagged by Scott Selwood but was also tagged by Scott Selwood when he scored the 154 and was at Subi)
Jack last 5 against Bulldogs - 141, 120,96, 44,148 Average 110. Bear in mind that Jack is having his best year this year though so may be a POD in the first 3 he was tagging Griffen so will that be the case this match and the last 2 was tagged by Picken so something to also consider and try and forecast this week whether he will tag/run with Griffen or will cop the Picken tag.

Cheers Tommy !

Sweeet. Thanks heaps Ringo. :)

Think Swanny will explode and for once I hope the Pies get up as it will help their scoring.
Jack would be a good POD too but I think Swan can go huge.
