I’ve been dabbling a bit with the VC > C fallback option the last few weeks, always relying on the backup after getting a less than impressive score from Dane or whoever else I’d had.
This week i’m tempted to just lock in GAJ from the outset, but part of me wants to flirt with danger and put the VC on GAJ, with an option to put Buddy under pressure to perform on Sunday. A risky move, but he looked the goods for at least a 1/2 of footy last week, and the Hawks are playing the Dees this Sunday …. he could kick 10?
For a straight out Captain, who are you going to rely on?
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.Playing with a VC > C? Let us know what combos you’re looking at in the comments.

Pendlebury with the loophole, Gaz for the backup plan.
The messiah returns…… Gaz at The Cattery.
Mornin Mutley. You certainly found the best place to learn this game, and great great choice to follow Adelaide.
Tempted to go Stevie J, but GAJ kicking flukey goals from 60m out with the wind going the wrong way is hard to go past…
Will put the VC on Swan, but don’t expect much.
I am going vc ablett and buddy as backup. If I had to choose just one it would be gaj, but I dont have to.
Trying to think if I have managed to use the loophole yet. Think the answer is honestly no, its been gaj every week.
Tossing up who the better option is on Saturday night. Stevie J or GAJ. Reckon they’ll both go large. Currently thinking I’ll have one of them as vc and Buddy as the backup on Sunday in case Stevie J or GAJ fail to fire which is unlikely.
Marc Murphy VC versus GWS
Gaz as backup Captain.
Swan to pig it up tonight VC…. Perma captain in case
Trade to get Staker and Watson
T/U – Heath (take a donut)
T/D – Dwyer (full side)
Can’t go past Gaz. This will be as close as we will ever get to the second coming of Jesus
Putting the VC on Pendles, but not expecting him to go too big. C to go on “THE REASON” Steve J, he has a habit of mauling lower sides especially at home.
Historically Gaz does not pile on the numbers vs the Cats, last year he was tagged for the first 3 quarters then the tag went to Harbrow, he finished with 64 points in the 4th to total 110 for the game. 108 the year before, the Reason on the other hand avg’s 158 vs the Suns.
Pendlebury or Swan for me as VC, with Stevie J getting the captancy.
Voted gaz but going stevie J for the big c pendels vc need 145+ for capt
First time in a long time that I can’t remember Ablett being involved in my captaincy, as he clashes with my number 1 option.
VC: Swan.
He has been in poor form but he is a champ. Last four against Brisbane: 170, 122, 132, 138. Fully expect Raines to go to Pendlebury so Swan can run free and make the kind of statement that he likes to make.
C: S Johnson.
He just rips the bad teams. Against the four worst teams running around right now:
Vs Gold Coast (both career games): 162, 155
Vs GWS (only career game): 156
Vs Melbourne (last two years): 199, 169
Vs Western Bulldogs (last three years): 147, 146, 103, 160
That’s a lot of very high scores!
Cloke with the VC for mine. No Merrett in means that Patfull is going to be in for a long night!
Cloke vc into Johnson c
Going to put the VC on Danger, last two games against Freo he went 145 and 187. Then I have GAJ with the C.
all the way with stevie j
pendles is the v/c
With Jobe Watson up against Sydney, I’m not confident putting the VC on anyone playing against the bloods. JPK burned me last week with the VC, so he’s not going to get it back.
Ablett might not go as high as he usually does, so I’ll put the VC on him (just over Bartel) and leave Nic Nat as back-up, based on his recent scores at Patersons and that Maric seems to be suffering somewhat.
A lot of VC+C options are playing each other this week. Jobe v JPK. Bartel v Gazza, Deledio & Martin v Priddis, Cox and Nic Nat.
Of course, Bryce Gibbs v GWS could be a left-field option.
Going to to Ablett vice capt into Buddy capt
If Ablett pulls a decent one, then I’ll bring Viney onto the ground and make him capt
Otherwise betting on Buddy to smash the Dees. He looks like he is going to get it together soon. His 2nd half last week was a vast improvement
Thanks for those stats! Stevie vc, any number of hawks for c if he dosent go huge
Stevie J VC into NicNat C.
No way GAJ can outscore Stevie with JK back in to tag him.
Jobe VC and Gazza C.
My only concern though is will there be enough time between matches (3 hr difference between Gazza and Jobe’s matches) for this loophole to work?
Stevie J to Budwah. Get the heavy roller out boys!!!
Rumours abound that Swanny might be having the night off. Resting, injured, disinterested???
Anyways. Mr Reliable – S.Pendles for VC.
Nic Nat for C against a mediocore Tiggers.
Geez, as you start to load up your side it becomes tougher to decide on your Loop hole to Gaz,
Watson Sydney Nah
Murph GWS Maybe
Buddy Dees Maybe
Danger Freo Nah
Cox or Nic Nat hmmmm
Well I stuck it last week for VC Buddy 85 points in the second half reckon this could be the week for the big fellow and I would be really pissed if I missed it.
Before trading in any Essendon players, do yourself a favour and read this first.

Bloody decisions, vc on plendles and c on ablettio
However
T/U daisy>staker and terlich to s.johnson (leaves 420k in bank to roll out next few weeks)
T/D daisy + omeara > watson + johnson (leaves me with 11k and no staker)
Only need 5 premiums with 15trades left after first option
VC on Pendulbury, much more consistant than Swan.
Jelwood, Cotchin, Priddis, JPK or maybe even Stevie J if Pendels stuffs it up, thoughts on who?
If pendels scores around 125+ ill take that
VC on murphy but most likely go GAJ. just heard cloke out. Rev trade again. F@#k
I went swan over Pendles for the loophole. Should I take his 130, or chuck the C on Stevie J or Gaz Abs ( I’m think Stevie J out of those two)
TU Take Swans 130
TD Take a gamble!
Does anyone think the Cats v Suns game might throw up some rain effected scores?
Currently have 119 from pendles as vc with God Junior as C but wondering if I should select a ‘fair weather’ captain or possibly even take pendles’ score?
Thumbs up – Stick with GOD Junior he will carve it up in the wet tonight under lights!
Thumbs down – pick another C from the likes of Buddy, Priddis or Cotchin
Comment – Bank pendles’ 119
