Another BIG week in the world of Calvin’s Captains and I’m sure we all hit some big scores last week – hey… my team might be puss, but here we are as we look at the best captain options for the round ahead. Make sure you have checked out his FULL article where 30-plus of the to players are covered.

🏴‍☠️ 1 – Bailey Smith 126 ✅
🏴‍☠️ 2– Nick Daicos 111 ✅

Here are some other option I LIKE this week and options worth considering….

Nick Daicos v North – Daicos scored 129 in the game last year and avoid the taggers on that day – but as we know, they do have Simpkin and O’Sullivan… this is always an issue, but as we know… Nick will be Nick. His from of 111, 143, 148 and 117 is great but the tag concern is real against a team that can be tough.

Zac Bailey v Essendon – Bailey scored 117 earlier this year on Essendon which happened to be his first ever ton against the Bombers from nine games. He cashes in here… big time.  99, 103 and 99 is his form… and that gets bumped up this week. That’s if… he is ok from his ‘little injury’ last week.

Marcus Bontempelli v West Coast – 131 last year on the Eagles… and… 103, 140, 80, 135 and 117 before that. Surely bounces back this week from his 63 from round 17. Dawson had 126 on the Eagles last week – similar players on their day.

💨 SMOKIE ALERT! 💨

Caleb Daniel v Collingwood – HERE WE GO! You know it…. Collingwood are #3 easiest for DEFs and we saw that to be true last week when Uwland (146) and Noble (130) combined for 29 marks. Two weeks before that it was Darcy-Byrne Jones 131.
