Game Day 2024 Fantasy - Round One Discussion

[Shane Heard]

1916 with mcKerch and sharp on bench …cat Clark on field and Bontasauras capt.

Could’ve been 2150 odd

Only Bomber Reid to trade

Happy with that bizarre round one

 

[Hillsy13]

1955
Hopefully it’s easier to climb rank this year with these early byes. Unprepared people could be copping some unwanted rookie scores

1954

60s and 70s as far as the eye can see

 

[Barrybran]

All out for 1970. I dropped 6K places in the last quarter with Young moved back. On a positive note, Fyfe did what I needed him to. Thank you Nathan.

Edit: rank 37,981

 

[samFFC]

2090
Just outside 5k

Best start in a while!

Mid pricers the ones to reconsider - ZWill, Wines, Fisher, Sexton

May get one more week each

 

[Phar Ace]

2077 all out. Let us in to rage trade!

Pipped me by one kick - well done

 

[Zevon]

1955

1954

Our scores were in descending order and so were our posts!

Stupid Barrybran after us ruined the pattern by scoring 1970.

 

[largebus]

2069 final, in the top 10k

Left some points on the bench and the cash gen wasn't the best, but not terrible after a few years out. I dodged some bullets like Budarick and Grundy

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

1980, disappointing start.

Cost myself over 100 points by my last minute trades and changes to my team.

Now onto the byes somehow already.

Better give me that dictionary

That’s gonna be the key I think, everyone’s that’s loaded up on Swans and Suns will be hamstrung

 

[TheRednWhite]

2142

Naicos Sheez Whit Green(C) Gawn Heeney all good

Bont very poor second half. ZW not great. Amon average. A lot of spuds that can be downgraded to cheaper spuds in the hope I can use the money in the future for less spuddy players.

Rookies decent on field apart from HReid.

I have pretty much ignored early bye rounds and just picked a common side. Looking at it now…Grundy Roberts Heeney Green Whit Jordon Sexton

Seems a lot but I reckon I trade half these guys out

Keep hearing this. He is priced at 50 odd and scored 75

Assuming his ability to run out games gets better with each game he plays, he should still be good ?

Yeah what im thinking, only 4 bye players here so hoping it helps me over the next 5 weeks.

 

[Mezzoculo]

Haha. Ha ha, ha. Ha. Sigh.

What a game we put ourselves through...


Lowest rank in close to two decades of playing fantasy footy

 

[SM]

You see the thing is I didn’t have any truly super bad scores, just meh scores.

I know it’s just a game and I shouldn’t get annoyed about it but man haha

1839 for me so I'm right there with you. Such a flat feeling haha.

 

[Sixpence]

Just cracked 2k (2002) thanks to Serong saving my ass. Green VC helped too.

Buda, Nuke and Grundy killed me. I think Nuke will bounce back, he was heavily tagged by Setterfield. Grundy should do better. Buda just killed his cash gen.

Wilson, Howes and Sharp were great on my bench.

Yeah Zilliams been a good pick.

Think we were hoping for 85-90 and it's a smash pick but he's been good for the price.

Yeah fair but I don’t really care about what someone is priced at. It’s harsh I know but I have a number in my head that I expect and judge players according to that. ZW is not a 50 scorer he knows that and he needs to be better. Also during the game he was on track for more so it was disappointing

Sounds like you have a new team.

Pretty much where I’m at. Didn’t actually have many s**t scores on field but the guys that should have scored didn’t.

Wines was a major f*ck up. Got sucked into how consistent he’s been (2023 aside) and how he’d at least get back to 850ish fairly comfortably.

But aside from him I’m still comfortable with the thought process behind the rest of the starting team.. they just didn’t perform

Sounds like we all have a new team to live vicariously through.
