2021 FULL FIXTURE RD 1-23 HERE

[A Bit Dusty]

LOL Tigers get the easiest draw again everyone we play finished lower than us last year & the year before

 

[TheMcManusNose]

Decent bye spread, round 14 probably the worst with Oliver, Petracca, Lloyd and all 3 of Marshall, Gawn, Grundy. Not as bad as it has been in past years though.

Saints got served a platter of shite on a pizza disk made of crapolla the poor kents.

Brice Mitchell, always handy visualizations:

Treacy should be a handy R/F for looping.
Makes Grundy into Gawn simple, opens dpp for anyone going with Marshall.
Only downsides are that he doesn't have a funny name like many past R doughnuts and he shares the round 14 bye with Gawn, Grundy & Marshall, not that we'd expect him to play tho.

TMitch very appealing C option for the first 6 weeks.

Really hard done by. Port look really well treated though. How do the minor premiers escape playing any of the other top 4 teams twice?

Im trying to ignore the fixture as much as possible this year.
It could change in an instant.
Ít makes it hard picking a loop player, but everyone's in the same boat.
But as far as premos go it doesnt come into my thinking.
I think the byes are almost certain to change again.

 

[Hai_Newman]

and off we go again.

Yeap... the AFWL FIXture is NOT gonna pan out.
That bye round?
Scrap it, not gonna happen, start pulling players of 3/4 or more out of your teams before you get stung.

Corona is pretty scary. Adelaide has no cases.

I think they should play every game at Adelaide oval and Here2tellyouwhy should sit on the hill and drink all the beer

How we lining up for byes guys?

I’m going
13 in 12
6 in 13
And 11 in 14 as of the time I write this

I went from having like 4 people in round 12 to 13 since the last 2 weeks of practise games haha

Haven't paid any attention to it. Worry about the byes when they come, plenty of time for long term injuries, sideways rage trades, rookies being dropped and never playing again, etc before then

Nice balance there mate

and of course there’s always time to plan
I know I’ve made good ground over the bye rounds since they’ve been introduced so I think many underrate how important those rounds can be

 

[Significant]

BYES (Premiums and MP only)

R12: 0-3-0-1 = 4 out
R13: 3-3-0-2 = 8 out
R14: 3-0-2-0 = 5 out

Seems to be relatively even
