I could be wrong, but I think since he is your number 1 player in your team list he will be given the captaincy. But as if you were going to name him captain anyway. Surely you would have named him VC so you could loophole if he killed it.

Yeah, would've been VC then loopholed after his score tonight.

I'd be more than happy if you're right HB.

Ouch Chumps!

As it's partial lockout, think as it's now after the Tigers Vs Lions game, don't think you can include any of those players in the side unless named prior to the first lockout :-X. Could be wrong though so will let Ossie have final ruling, as don't think this has happened for a while! Even though Cotch would obviously be in the team.

---

Bold players are ones playing tonight - don't think I missed anyone.
Sub rule in play.

Don't think that Q realised Sam Gray is a mid only (stupid - he should be m/f!) but because of that we are going to use the flood rule so that we don't cop OOP penalties. Q may tamper with this before the next lockout :P

Sam Mayes & James Aish played.

[kilbluff1985]

[Toga]

How come mate

[kilbluff1985]

Reminder... Sub/Flood/attack needs to be nominated BEFORE the first lock out

What about restng ?

I think it goes that since it was a partial lockout and chumps didn't name a team, any players that were due to play tonight get locked in, going by how they rate in his preference order. So if in the first 15 they get automatically put in. But you're right this doesn't usually happen so will wait for os' ruling :)

TBH think that's only if he doesn't name a team at all. I think if he goes on to name a team then Cotch = locked out.

Ah flower, serious? I was at training tonight so didn't see final teams (Caddy out) till after the lockout. Not sure what else I could've done :(

[ossie85]

idk whether2restornot

can I announce resting tomorrow per chance? think I asked a similar question last week

Sorry Nails, resting has to be done before round starts. All teams announced at this point anyway!

@My Chumps and pyronerd

Both you didn't name a team. I should just name a team for you, and have the Lions/Tigers players locked. But think will give this choice:

- Name a team by Saturday, but you can't name any Tigers/Lions players

- I name you a team based on preferences (and yes Cotchin would be captain of Cape Town), but this would count as a strike against you. A second strike would mean you lose a premiership point.

So.... choice up to you...

Yeah, sorry Toga. Gray can still be moved around (not a Lions/Tigers) player, but you can't name flood/attack anymore.

Also, Luke McGuane scoring a 0 in SuperCoach after playing the entire game is really harsh luck for Wellington :/

On the bright side at least they're not wasting their HGA this week.
