Goldy the obvious VC choice!

In the unlikely event he doesn't score 200+, I might take a gamble on the C this week, possibly Cal Ward vs Gold Coast, or Rocky/Martin vs Melbourne.

Good call jfitty!!

Well done Goldy

+1

I'll take my Goldy VC, because while the loophole option is there... You have to run with or you'll loose ground.
But, seriously, SC purists would have to agree that the loophole MUST be closed.
Different story if you had to go Goldy as C on Friday night with Fyfe and the reemergence of God.

Goldy has to be VC. Unsure of who to C but probably won't need to worry about it. ;D

Don't need to worry about it.
Hardly a unique choice (15/18 had him VC in elxam Champs)

Goldy scaled up to 221 :D

I TOTALLY agree!!! They have to close the loophole, and this is coming from someon who had Goldy as VC this week and is going to use it. It's a dimension to the game that I dont believe should be there. You don't get 2 shots at any other aspect of the game ie you get the lower score of 2 emergencies if you name 2 in the one position. So why should you get 2 shots at captain?!?

I've gone with a usual SC gun as the big C this week, although he's been down on form this year.

I expect him to really work some magic and win me my match-ups this weekend.

Time to step up Joel Selwood!

Reilly O'Brien this week for me

He's been pretty good this last month, will do the same. :P

Dunno why I keep selecting Tom Read as Captain every week. Have'nt seen him get a kick in anger yet.

The ever consistent and reliable McLaren gets the nod again this week! :D

I would hate to see the loophole abolished. Some weeks (obviously not this week) its hard enough jagging a decent score with 2 cracks let alone 1. Everyone can use it so it's an even playing field no need for it to change. I'm sure Crawf would like to see it canned he had the balls to go straight up on Goldy would have been one of very few that did. Kudos to Crawf and Appreciation to Goldy

Goldy into Goldy

This was the correct answer.

Personally I liked the old system where all games were locked out when the round started. Or maybe start the full lockout with the Saturday games. It's a big disadvantage if you're out camping or busy all weekend and aren't able to make moves throughout the weekend.

That being said, the current system brings people back to their site again and again throughout the weekend, which means more ad revenue, so no reason for them to change the system.

HotTiges · July 18, 2015, 09:18:01 AM

Reckon people that like the old system..play SC the old way..I was a victim of the old system (thanks heath TABshaw)...love the reverse trade option and ability to move sub affected players to the bench..VC looping is a free hit..doesnt always come off..

RaisyDaisy · July 18, 2015, 10:36:49 AM

NicNat moves to the pine with the E, and Tom Read comes up for a run and gets the big C too!
