PermaCaptain

rider, mate, you're going to put me out of a job... ;)

Sorry mate, not my intention....

Boyd's another decent option for captain, but not for perma-capt as he can get 70-80 once in a while

I've done the last few weeks well with captain choices  ;D
Round 15: Boyd captain(133), (Swan 105, Ablett 104)

Round 16: Boyd captain(131), (Swan 116, Ablett 128, Thompson 110)

Round 17: Swan captain(165), (Boyd 82, Ablett 143,  Pendles 142)

:)

I did this too if you look at my post... and it saved my average quite a bit....

As much as we all loving saying; "Swanny and/or GAJ as permaCaptain/s."

Most of us will be tempted to look for an edge, and usually it backfires.  ::)

+1 seems every time i went away from Swanny or Gaj i got burnt so i dont do it anymore haha.
Its either Gaj or Swan. Trying to hunt around for the highest scorer each week is almost imposible
to do consistantly and youd need to run at around 70%  accuracy to come in front of those two.

But the problem is when you swap between the two, you end up with the chance of missing their good ones and only getting their bad ones... I seem to have got most of Ablets bad scores and Swanns too... Yes i got some good ones too, but if i had of stuck to just one for the whole season i'd have been better off, and i bet you would have too!

you could think about it like this

Swan average 129 x 2 for the year is 258

If your happy for your captain to average 258 for you (i would be) leave it on swan

Just had a look through my captain choices over this year. Without Round 10 where Pendles was injured (and Buddy scored 204), my average is 130.94. Whenever I tried something different (Thompson, Pendles, Murphy), it hurt. Basically going either of Swan or Boydos is the way to go, as since Rnd 11 (when I only went those two), my average is 140.

Rnd 1: Ablett 136
2: Swan 116
3: Boyd 146
4: Ablett 97
5: Swan 171
6: Murphy 94
7: Swan 143
8: Boyd 128
9: Thompson 84
10: Pendles (i) 59
11: Swan 142
12: Boyd 133
13: Swan 132
14: Swan 172
15: Swan 105
16: Boyd 131
17: Swan 165
Total: 2154
Ave: 126.71
