LaHug's Captains 2014 - Round 14

[LaHug]

edit: WAIT LaHug, can you make Prestia #1 for the curse?

I'm not the curse. Nails is!!! And why do you want Prestia to do badly anyway?

Given that Nails made his 2 options last week based on #1 (70odd) and 2(late withdrawal), I'm steering clear
I'm putting the C on Barlow, and I don't want him cursed
The fact that Prestia is the next best option is purely irrelevant

Requests have been updated too

Haha, fair enough. I decided to bring in Ebert over Barlow this week so I'll be making Beams captain. With Hartlett out though, I'm a little fearful of Ebert being tagged so I might change my mind...

Also, with your Gray summary, any fears that Picken will play on him?

Was a tricky one for me,
But Jelliott did score a ton on him

Thinking that Gray will be held early if he does (Picken could also go to Wingard, which is probably a better choice) before getting plenty of it late when WB get tired and overrun
Thinking around 30-35 at HT, and 40 in Q4
90 might be a little generous, but can see an 80+ (all depends on how well he starts)

Fair evaluation. And Picken could always go to Wingard instead. I'd have Gray around 80-90 too so all good. Just thought I'd ask.

Hey man could I once again request Redden? Thanks dude

Think his ton-streak (which has started with me doing captain options) is over, but still a handy score considering he hates the Nullabor trip

Thanks man :) I will continue to ask this every week no doubt haha

[Jalapeno]

Could someone please post the captain percentages :)

can tell you right now that it'll be a regular 90-110 score for him, seems more consistent rather than huge... won't win you a league game (or be a viable captain option), but won't lose it with a 50 either

Mids generally:
lowlights being vs Geelong/Collingwood/Adelaide/Carlton and the higher ones being vs Dees/StKilda/WC/North/Brisbane
obviously depending on form/history

personally going Barlow C/Beams VC this week

and LaHug, do you not think Kerridge will see off Stanton this week? considering McKenzie locked him (and Essendon) up so well last week

[ADEZ]

Hey pommy, this is for who to play more so than who to captain but wondering if you could quickly do Pav and Wingard for me, massive thanks!

did a vs write up, rather than a detailed one... I hope it's okay for you
Pav, because I think Picken will hold Wingard, and Brisbane give up big DT scores

Dunno how I missed that.... Stanton is the obvious choice but Goddard has been incredibly damaging of late so I still reckon it's a 50/50.

Edited to include. Thanks.

Perfect. Thanks mate

[kilbluff1985]

do you guys think Kieran Jack is decent C option?

Nails is going Ablett so not going near him

[GoLions]

Pendlebury VC into Ablett C.

Sorry fellas.

Cross of Ablett and probably Pendles as well, fellas

Beams VC, Barlow C for me

Great stuff Huggy and pommy :)

[pommyadam]

do you guys think Kieran Jack is decent C option?

yep
If LaHug thinks JPK isn't going bang this week, then one mid has to... and given Hanners being out, it leads to one way
and if the curse is headed to Ablett, then Jack's a good POD choice

comes with a risk though, given he's only had one career score over 75, but Richmond are BAD and it was 2 years ago (back when he used to be a tagger)
