Wonders FFC 18.6 (114) defeat Gold City Royals 8.5 (53) at the Colosseum
A new season had dawned on Sweet, and the Royals travelled to the Colosseum hoping to kick off a successful season for the Gold Citizens. Not sure how it eventually panned out for the Gold Citizens (well I do but I won’t spoil the surprise), but after an even first quarter the Wonders put their Roman sandals on whatever a chariot has for an accelerator. Leading by 16 points at half time and 30 at three quarter time before doubling that lead in a ruthless final quarter to win handsomely at home.
BFew had a day out in front of goals kicking six feasting on the service of dogs105 (17 disposals/15 hitouts/2 tackles/1 goal), jezzajay (13 disposals/5 tackles/4 marks/3 goals), HARPSichord (20 disposals/3 marks/1 goal) & ClarkeM (17 disposals/3 marks), while @croweater41 also chipped in with three snags.
Cadsky (15 disposals/5 tackles) was probably best on for the Royals while GreyCrow (12 disposals/8 hitouts/3 tackles/1 goal), Nothing (13 disposals/3 tackles/3 marks) & Membling (15 disposals/4marks/3 tackles) did alright. Brenton Davy was the only multiple goal kicker with a spare (I think that’s two).

Mount Buller Demons 12.8 (80) defeat Baghdad Bombers 7.7 (49) at the Snow Dome
The Bombers went up the Mountain to kick off season 40 hoping for a bright start to the year. But it was the Demons who took a slight lead in the first quarter and kept making it bigger to finish 31 points in the black to win handsomely at home.
Expect Proper Gander to find some votes in this one, having 10 tackles to go with 22 disposals. Rookie tomcruise put in a Top Gun performance (cue audible groans from the audience) in his debut with 24 disposals/8 marks & 3 tackles while other to do well for the hosts were the returning Scythe (20 disposals/13 hitouts/4 tackles), DemonJim (25 disposals/4 marks), Headless (19 disposals/3 marks/1 goal), sante (16 disposals/4 marks/2 tackles) & Gralin (12 disposals/4 tackles/5 frees for) while Yakker & Bluelegs kicked seven goals between them.
JoeldTrafford (16 disposals/8 tackles) should also have a vote to their name while WAbulldog (20 disposals/5 tackles/6 frees for) and Footy Is Good (16 disposals/5 hitouts/6 tackles) will also be in the conversation. Other to impress were tomjoad (27 disposals/5 marks/3 tackles), CursingFijian (27 disposals/7 marks) & The Sultan (15 disposals/2 marks/1 goal), while Grav Raz & DemurePrincess each kicked two goals.

Dragons FFC 13.18 (96) defeat Fighting Furies 12.4 (76) at Ljp86’s Lair
The fuchsia team from the hippodrome arrived at Dragon Island a leaner outfit after demoting 99.96% of their captains from the previous season in the hope of having a fruitful start to season 40 and go one better than their runners up place the previous time around. And after an even first quarter it looked like it was working, leading by two goals heading into the last quarter, before catching an early ferry back to the mainland and allowing the hosts to kick five goals and a thousand points to win handsomely at home.
For the Dragons Pie 4 Life (23 disposals/6 tackles/5 frees for/1 goal) rolled back the clock while Strigoi (27 disposals/9 hitouts/4 tackles/1 goal), freo84 (24 disposals/7 marks/1 goal), Blaze Storm (28 disposals/4 marks), Hatchy1992 (24 disposals/3 marks/3 tackles), Ljp86 (21 disposals/7 marks) & Drizzy (18 disposals/9 marks/1 goal) made hay while @PhenomentalV1 & Lbaddie29 kicked 3 goals each.
On the other hand the best for the Furies were ShaunDuggan (7 goals), Greenery (22 disposals/5 tackles/1 goal), NaturalDisaster (21 disposals/4 tackles/1 goal), Pickitt (19 disposals/6 marks), omgfridge (22 disposals/6 marks), crazywildhorse (19 disposals/6 marks) & James Colorado (18 disposals/5 marks).

Gumbies FFC 15.9 (99) defeat Las Vegas Bears 11.8 (74) at the House of Gumby
The Las Vegans (Spanish for The Vegans) made their way to the House of Gumby for their opening game of the season hoping to come home with the four points after an off season of hibernation. They hadn’t fully woken up though, as the hosts led at each change to win handsomely at home.
Gumby Supercheapgiants (24 disposals/9 tackles/2 goals) was best on ground ably supported by former Mobbs winner GWS Goose (22 disposals/3 tackles/7 frees for), CatToTheFuture (18 disposals/4 marks/1 goal) & Brick Loosener (16 disposals/4 marks/3 tackles), with @Haydatina Physis & cats_09 kicked three goals apiece.
The Bears had quite a few decent performers as well led by Cap (24 disposals/5 tackles/5 frees for/2 goals), Senor M (17 disposals/15 hitouts/3 tackles/2 goals), RonnieRaven (22 disposals/8 marks/1 goal) & Millky95 (15 disposals/4 tackles/4 frees for/1 goal) while Art Vandelay_ kicked three majors. And shout out to spinynorman whose only stat was conceding a free kick to have a Dream Team score of -3!

East Side Hawks 20.13 (133) defeat Roys FFC 7.10 (52) at the Eyrie
The Gorillas were hoping for a big start to season 40 when they took a round one trip to the Eyrie to face the two time defending champions. And after they unfurled their flag before their jubilant crowd we had our third game of the round where scores were level at quarter time. It was all one way traffic from there though as the hosts had a day out – leading by 18 points at half time, 48 at three quarter time and finally 81 points by the time the Rubenesqe lady cleared her throat to win handsomely at home.
The forever young sausageroll had eight tackles to go with 12 disposals, 6 frees for and a goal while Itsmyshow (26 disposals/5 marks/1 goal), Giant Strides (a Michelle), boncer34 (4 goals), Callums_Guns (20 disposals/3 tackles/2 goals), SM (14 disposals/8 marks), larrikin (17 disposals/4 tackles/1 goal) & haydo (3 goals) were all prolific.
Mooch began a big season with six goals to lead all comers ably supported by DERRINALPHIL (14 disposals/7 tackles/9 hitouts), Phar Ace (21 disposals/6 marks), fitzroybowiedog (15 disposals/5 tackles/5 frees for) & Roylion (16 disposals/4 marks) for the Roys.

Ophidian Old Boys 25.18 (168) defeat Coney Island Warriors 14.7 (91) at Spotswood Oval
After many slow starts to seasons, Coney Island had won their round one games for the previous two seasons so were confident heading to Spotswood Oval to face an Ophidian outfit that had for the first season in their existence allowed the Warriors into their home ground without employing security guards and ankle monitors. This put the visitors into a false sense of security as the Old Boys led by lots at every change to… yep, you guessed it, win handsomely at home.
gab213 kicked 8 goals from 14 shots at goal to be one of many hosts to have big games as Braklet (17 disposals/7 tackles/ten (yes 10) frees for/1 goal), thewizardmelon (26 disposals/11 hitouts/1 goal), Over The Post (16 disposals/8 tackles), hammer180 (13 disposals/7 marks/4 goals), manicpie (20 disposals/8 marks), Mrs Turbo (16 disposals/7 marks/3 goals), Harvey Manfrenjensenden (24 disposals/6 marks/1 goal), Tigerturbulance (17 disposals/5 marks/3 tackles), Dingster (15 disposals/4 marks/2 goals), Fleabane (22 disposals/5 marks/1 goal)… hell, they all did well.
The visitors on the other hand were well served by jannissary (25 disposals/5 marks/4 tackles/1 goal), spudmaster (17 disposals/9 tackles/1 goal), pantskyle (24 disposals/7 marks/3 goals), @FootyGuy12 (26 disposals/9 marks), The Filth Wizard (19 disposals/3 tackles/1 goal), Barrybran (20 disposals/6 hitouts), Tonga Bob (3 goals) and ubiquitous226 (17 disposals/14 hitouts/3 tackles/2 goals in a wonderful debut).
