Top 3 VICE CAPTAIN Options –
Patrick Cripps
Thursday Night vs Richmond – AVG vs Team: 93.5
The Tigers captain has come out and said it himself. The Tigers won’t tag Cripps, do we believe him? Regardless, he’s scored 130 the last time these two teams met and if he scores anything like that again, you don’t want to miss out.
Brodie Grundy
Friday Night vs Geelong – AVG vs Team: 98.3
Last year’s top scoring ruckmen and player overall goes up against the Cats on Friday night. So who does he go up against? Exactly. Rhys Stanley, Darcy Fort, whoever it is will be no match for Brodie Grundy who doubles as a big bodied mid when he’s not hitting it out of the centre.
Jack Macrae
Saturday Twilight vs Sydney – AVG vs Team: 86.6
Also an option for Captaincy if you’ve chosen any of the men above for the Vice Captaincy, but you have to weigh up the likelihood that he’ll meet very effective tagger George Hewett. No denying that the way Macrae goes about his business is a thing of beauty though, and he’ll be hard to stop after a great pre-season showing.
VICE CAPTAIN Smokey –
Scott Pendlebury
Friday Night vs Geelong – AVG vs Team: 122.3
Wasn’t long ago that Pendlebury was dubbed ‘Dependlebury’ and he was a captain or vice captain each and every week for every SuperCoach in the land. He’s a bit past that now, but his average against the Cats might be hard to ignore and as long as you trust your captaincy option the risk might be worth it.
TOP 3 CAPTAIN Options –
Nat Fyfe
Sunday Twilight vs North Melbourne – AVG vs Team: 124.1
Fyfey loves playing the Kangaroos as evidenced by his avg against them. No Ben Jacobs means he’ll be let loose and he’ll be hard to stop on the Optus Stadium deck, and being the last game of the round, you can literally VC anyone else.
Max Gawn
Early Saturday vs Port Adelaide – AVG vs Team: 120.4
In Gawn’s 100th game, he’ll be tapping the ball to a midfield that most teams would dream of. How doesn’t he tap it advantage? His average score vs Port Adelaide is bloody impressive. Only an option if you’ve gone with someone on the Thursday or the Friday night.
Patrick Dangerfield
Friday Night vs Collingwood – AVG vs Team: 96.4
A pretty safe option if you ask me, but only an option if you go for someone in the Thursday night game as your Vice Captain. His avg vs Collingwood was actually surprising considering he scored 137 against them in 2018 and 146 against them in round 22, 2017, bull I’ll digress. A great option and looks to be in ripping nick.
CAPTAIN Smokey –
Sebastian Ross
Sunday vs Gold Coast – AVG vs Team: 88.5
You’d have to have a big set to do it, especially at the start of the season, and he doesn’t usually score well against the Suns. The Saints are at home though and he recorded a score of 136 last time these two teams met. Can he do it again? If he starts this season like he ended 2018 then he’s going to be hard to stop at Marvel Stadium.

I'm thinking Danger into Fyfe.
Fyfe's last four scores against North Melbourne: 163, 139, 126 & 141.

Cripps into Grundy this will set the tone for my opening by the end of Friday night!
Lazza · 21/03/2019 at 09:02
Cripps into Danger
Rick Grimes · 21/03/2019 at 09:09
Danger into Gawn, I think.
kevwal · 21/03/2019 at 15:15
Me too, Danger likes to come out strong in first game.
TommyC99 · 21/03/2019 at 09:33
Locked Cripps in VC. Macrae is obvious C choice but Hewett tag worries me a bit. Thoughts on M Crouch or Oliver? If not, just gonna go Grundy/Gawn i think
magic mullet · 21/03/2019 at 09:34
Who's got leagues to join
KSinny · 21/03/2019 at 09:52
Dusty VC against the blues? Usually starts off the season big and is playing Carlton…
TOPHAWK1 · 21/03/2019 at 10:06
Be careful KSinny. Dusty does not have a great record against Carlton.
KSinny · 21/03/2019 at 14:22
? His last 3 scores against them have been 159, 121 and 139
Coz311 · 21/03/2019 at 17:37
No concern about Dusty just think Cripps is the better option. Might be a 160 v 140 type deal.
Roge · 21/03/2019 at 10:07
Is anyone worried about Dusty being named as FF, he might not get enough minuted in the midfield?
COREYSC · 21/03/2019 at 10:49
Selected M.Crouch over Dusty even tho they have two key talls the tigers it looks as though they still want him playing forward in patches
Clarkeyy23 · 21/03/2019 at 11:21
It’s only a team sheet, he might start at full foward for about 1 minute then run straight into the middle
SC_Kev7 · 21/03/2019 at 11:37
Tigers have named Lynch and Riewoldt in the pockets! Don't read too much into team sheets
Michael · 21/03/2019 at 16:30
not with Lynch, Riewoldt and Balta up forward
Teddy021 · 21/03/2019 at 10:10
Cripps into Gawn
Rick Grimes · 21/03/2019 at 11:07
Anyone else still struggling to lock in a team? I've chopped and changed myself to a standstill. Yikes.
Clarkeyy23 · 21/03/2019 at 11:20
Need to back your decisions and don’t stress trade players out, remember it’s only a game
dontblushbaby · 21/03/2019 at 11:21
Can’t decide between Fyfe or Cogs

Clarkeyy23 · 21/03/2019 at 11:18
I’m running VC Cripps into Dangerfield C, but Fyfe is very tempting!
John · 21/03/2019 at 11:37

Holty01 · 21/03/2019 at 13:48
Danger into Macrae for me.
Seeker · 21/03/2019 at 13:49
I'd like to go Cripps into Fyfe, but that is 1st game (Thursday night) into the last game of the round on Sunday twilight…hopefully Cripps pumps a 130 score and it won't matter
Teddy021 · 21/03/2019 at 13:51
I was thinking that too, but it's such a long time to wait haha
Jase · 21/03/2019 at 14:23
Grundy into Gawn?
Michael · 21/03/2019 at 16:31
Going safe and doing Danger into Gawn
Supercrows · 21/03/2019 at 17:02

redherringfc · 21/03/2019 at 20:04
Looking at Cripps quarter time score, I think Mr P Bines is going to be my captain for round 1.
crawf68 · 22/03/2019 at 09:08
those that had Cripps for loophole, who is sticking with him?
MattyB_76 · 22/03/2019 at 14:29
It's a tough one, Crawf. I was going Cripps into Gawn. 120-130 is a real grey area.
Just checked some numbers on Gawn and last year he was 13 games over 125pts, 9 games under. Average when over is 144, under when is 102.
Games against Port (Ryder) and WC (Lycett) last year were 140 and 156, but those 2 guys are together now, how will that change things? Also Gawn got 79 in the Prelim final, but that game was an outlier for all Melb players. Do we include it?
I think I'm gonna roll the dice on Gawn.
Tex · 22/03/2019 at 11:14
Danger or Grundy VC?
Tex · 22/03/2019 at 11:15
Also Dunkley and Kelly or Dunkley and Wallis or Wallis and Kelly? Not sure about Heeney
Jester · 22/03/2019 at 18:48
Ive created a league for JR community. Anyone welcome. Serious players appreciated. I consistently finish top 1%
