LaHug's Captains - Round 1 2014

[LaHug]

Dean Cox last 5 v bulldogs averages 120 and hasnt gone below 100 so hes not a bad look either

Great against the Dogs but not great last year with Nic Nat in the side. Very worried that lack of ruck time and an aging body for a big guy will hurt his scores. Way too expensive to have in your team as far as I'm concerned.

as much as I want to loophole GAJ, I have a feeling Scooters going to go bonkers.

but for rd1?

vs Minson (and WB):
2013 rd18 - 102 with Lycett as the other ruckman
2013 rd6 - 112 kicked 4.0 and other cukman (was Sinclair but NicNat came on in Q3) combined for 81
2012 rd1 - 107 with NicNat scoring 71

depends on NicNat's selection, but I'd probably pencil in somewhere between 95 and 110 (103 to put my neck on the line)



ALSO, for comparison:
Calvin's gone with:
Swan, Scooter, Gaj, Beamer, Watson (in that order)

[Ricochet]

Word is from sydney that Horse said 'He is still an important player for us but couldnt get a game this week'.

Has TMitchell taken over his midfield role?

Wow seriously? That is huge if he has. My whole thought process on not picking TMitch is he wouldn't get enough mid time with Jack, Hannebery, Kennedy, Parker and ROK in there

[elephants]

Titch just entered my AF free-hit side, I'll re-evaluate after next week.

[LaHug]

Am considering turning Pav into Titch in RDT...

Tmitch vs Parker suddenly becomes a LOT more interesting
or has ROK lost his place to a rook? (Cunningham, I'm looking at you)

I did it in SC ;)

[LaHug]

The guys at DT Talk seem to be completely unaware that Daniel Jackson is injured and, thus, won't be tagging Ablett. Both Calvin in his progressively less impressive Captains article (seriously, used to be super well researched and now it seems like he's putting a lot less time into it) and Dunny in his article today have mentioned the fear of Jackson tagging Ablett.

There's a reason GAJ is number one on my list this week and that's entirely because Jackson is out!

[Windigo]

Deledio?

[Windigo]

Going the VC on Swan.

The classic.  :P

[LaHug]

Don't think I'll get the time to look at any more options today but maybe tomorrow morning if I'm up?

We all know Lids has a good record against the Suns (84, 141, 119) so is worth a look for the free hit round, especially with his solid preseason. Not worthy of the C though.

Bit of a random, left field one (well, two) here.

Just wanna see Treloar and Heppell, my two main BXVs captain choices (even though it uses Sportal).  :P

Cheers Huggy!

Only just saw this :(
Heppell very poor vs. North! Treloar solid (think 95) against the Swans. Definitely go with Treloar.

[Mr.Craig]

Feeling the stress of not being a loopholer. This is the life I have chosen.

[LaHug]

Getting to look at Swan before having to choose between him and Ablett is a gift man! Why wouldn't you take it?!

[Mr.Craig]

I think my position has been fairly well covered previously, it's just not the way I want to play the game.
