What's everyone's thoughts please?

I personally think its to risky and will captain Rocky.

I'm wondering the same thing, except I don't have Rocky so am leaning towards risking ZOB as captain.

Late inclusion,  probable sub if he is... Could cost you 100 points

timmyparso

Very very very speculative.

What are chances of late out after a week off? What are the chances that ZOB will be a late in over the other 2 emergencies? Very slim actually


Too much paranoia

You may be correct but are the extra points that you MAY get worth the risk. At worst Rocky gets a 75 and you lose 70 points. If there is a late out and ZOB comes in wearing the vest and suddenly you've lost 150.

or Rocky could pull a hammy, sprain an ankle, etc at start of game on only 10 points or 20 as captain.

You have opportunity to double up Stevie J and lock the points now. Yes there is an extremely small chance of any late in for Brisbane could be ZOB but in my opinion a sub par Rocky score is much more probable.

Your choice in the end, but I'm captaining ZOB in DT and taking Stevie J's score.

So you honestly believe Rocky is a better chance to be Injured than one of the 22 lions players being a late out?

Only time will tell.

Just let this sink in boys....

Beams subbed out last match with a knee problem... he's named, could be a wee bit of doubt

This is why I'm hesitant in loopholing SJ in RDT

timmyparso

I believe the the chances of Rocky getting a sub par score are far greater than Brisbane having a late out AND if there is a late in that that player will be ZOB.

Haha I'm probably gonna #yolo it and give ZOB the armband. Then pray, pray a lot.

Beams has had 2 weeks to recover and Nick Robertson is also listed as an emergency.

There are many different possible combinations of events that COULD happen, every selection or trade is a risk, you just have to ask yourself what is the most likely scenario.

Knowing his history with injuries it's a high possibility the club wont risk him
