Not flowering up captaincy this week
Fyfe skipper
Unsure who to VC though
Sloane VC on the Friday night. Not enough time between Macrae and Fyfe to get an idea of yay or nay
Rocky into Fyfe
Quote from: Koop on March 24, 2019, 10:27:31 PM
Rocky into Fyfe
That's also a good option. Rocky always destroys us.
Dusty into Cripps
Possibly Cripps into Macrae. Ill have to be paying attention at the right time on Saturday to use Bines for the loop.
Grundy into Gawn
Quote from: tor01doc on March 24, 2019, 10:43:55 PM

Seriously though Grundy always destroys Richmond so I'll be VCing him.

Last three games - 115 140 odd and 150 odd - so yep.
Cripps into Cogs

suss rockys last 6-7 vs carlton. swear theres a 200 and a 180 in there and a bunch of 120+
Grundy into Macrae

Grundy/Cripps into Fyfe
Cripps into Macrae for me!

M crouch or Grundy into Macrae

M crouch or Grundy into Macrae
this. leaning matt crouch at this stage
Definitely staying away from rucks this week.
M Crouch into Coniglio at this stage.
Tipping Grundy will bounce back so Grundy to Macrae
Grundy averages 130 v Richmond so will he maintain and do I take the risk.
or do I be conservative and Cripps/Coniglio to Fyfe.
The Hoff or Cripps into Cogs or Fyfe
Grundy into Cogs
Grundy -> Fyfe
Cripps/ Danger into Macrae
Cripps does what Cripps does.
Danger with cats first game at GMHBA for the year.
Macrae keeps on keeping on.
Cogs an outside chance but it’s a long trip West....
VC is the guy you want as a risk/reward prospect. Grundy is the perfect option. If I had him I would throw the VC on him and then go with a Fyfe/Macrae
I'm almost happy to throw my VC away so I can back in Fyfe again.
Grundy > Fyfe
Grundy's three games against Richmond last year, 115, 157, 147. Ill back him VC into Fyfe C
Grundy into Macrae or Fyfe...leaning towards Fyfe
M Crouch into Fyfe
Grundy or Sloane into Macrae
Cripps into Macrae

Watch out for the Hutchings tag if Kelly doesn't play. Could go to Whitfield, but surely the guy that dominated the Bombers and kicked 3 goals is prime target for WC looking to bounce back.

Good point. If Kelly plays I'll go Cogs.
If he doesn't I might go Grundy into Cripps.

Pretty sure Hewett didn't tag anyone. I think they backed their mids to do the job but they failed. Surely they'll change it and send him to Sloane.

He followed Macrae. Still worth chucking the VC on Sloane because if he fails you don't really lose much
For those that have Rocky and can VC him, his last two scores against Carlton look poor. What people forget is the 2017 score he could barely go and they got him to take Bryce Gibbs completely out of the game when Gibbs had been absolutely dominating for a month prior to that. Rocky's last six scores are below
92, 57, 159, 204, 145 and 97. That is an average of 125.6 with the 57 in the rotation. He is the perfect VC candidate.
Down to Grundy and Sloane for VC into Fyfe C.
Liking Grundy at this stage...
Grundy into Fyfe for me.
Fyfe will destroy the Suns, so need a 130+ from Grundy I reckon to take it.
Rocky into........ Not gonna need a captain
GRUNDY to bounce back As VC. Hoping most people bypass him due to low score last week.
MACRAE or FYFE C. Worried Fyfe could be rested/managed when the game is over by 3/4 time.
Added a poll for everyone to put their two votes into :) Even has an option to change your votes should you change your mind!
Matt Crouch into Coniglio for me

Why would you risk Conigs with a Hutchings tag? No Shiel or Kelly who are his usual go to's.

Hutchings tag - Shirley you can't be serious
http://www.drsc.com.au/lahugs-captains-2019-round-2/
Forgot to mention Rocky when I wrote this but he'd be my first choice VC as long as I had one of the safe backups (Macrae, Fyfe).
Regarding the Hutchings tag, I'd rather tag Whitfield...

If Grundy spuds it up then ill happily lock in Fyfe and likely trade out Grundy. if Grundy kills it then im double happy
I don’t have him but with the limited data we have Rocky has to be the best VC option this week. Will be another story when Wines returns though.
I didn't pay all that money for Danger to not get a C or VC. Probs go Danger into Foife.

Passing on a 125 vc score is crazy IMO. See what happened to those who didn’t take the Cripps score and picked Grundy. 45 points lost, for the hope of maybe and extra 15. You’d need to nail grabbing the extra 15 for 3 weeks to make up the lost points, and that’s running significant risk, and another fail sees you fall further behind. 3 or 4 fails and any ground you happen to make up in a given week is probably already negated for the whole season...

I take 120+, worse case is my C option goes 150 and I lose 30, could easily go 60 and lose 60 though.

Just enjoying SL putting the "C" on a WCE player .... we have our uses
Didn't have Grundy VC myself but you would have to be crazy not to take a 132
Have to take 130+, downside is too precarious.

I'll hold Hore this week so I can VC The Pig. It had to he Sloane or Rocky. Going Rocky
disappointed got vc on grundy in dt and didnt get it done in sc. so now cripps danger/neale
looking good crippsy
Probably can't take Rocky VC here. Scored 16 points that quarter with the tag on him but he is on 105. Will likely throw it on Fyfe since the overlap sucks with the Cats vs Dees

danger by mistake when i was taking cripps vc as i didnt take it last week. too late game had started. good fortune for me. probably averages out over the weeks.
Happy with fyfe recovered well after his terrible 3rd qtr
You’d be spewing if you were trying to watch stats this arvo to make a call on the VC :-X
It was stressful enough not knowing Macrae was scoring well as my C ;D
