Discussion 2025 Fantasy Opening Round Discussion - R0

I'm considering going all of Roberts, Perryman, Callaghan and Day to ride the cash.

I think one or two of them will crash and burn (my money on Day the most likely) but I don't want to miss the home run pick. I'm not considering Taylor or Meek though

Perryman cash?

 

[samFFC]

Does Perryman's performance warrant dropping Rankine to Sanders, or Sheezel to Clarke, to get SDK up to him (at D5)?
Or does Taylor's trump it, meaning skipping Perryman, switching SDK to him instead and riding the price rise?

I’m thinking this is a clear sign not to start with him.

To be fair, I’ve been looking for a reason not to, and was rethinking at half time.
But only 29 point second half.

Had plenty of the ball, 27 touches, heaps of CBAs, still didn’t even ton.

He then has two great midfield opponents before the bye.

Priced at 74, how much does he realistically score or make?

 

[samFFC]

OR is so shit, Day and now Daicos, 48% owned now they will all jump off, game is becoming so much easier with this bs.

Totally agree

However it means silly people like me will rip up their teams and add in useless players like Taylor, and prioritise others like Callaghan over previous picks like Cerra.
So does create a little more scattering.

I know it won’t pan out this way (injuries and all that) but Day to Daicos is a perfect swap with byes and won’t be far apart in price by then either.


Having Daicos in week 4 for what was essentially a 760k initial outlay is crazy.

A bit of caution with Lions players, very interrupted training week

Fantasy app isn’t showing BE’s for me. Can anyone direct me how to find them? I’m hearing Taylor is sitting at around -2 and want to confirm that

Just logged on to the website rather than using the app and it shows it, thanks for that!

 

[Tex Danger]

the projected price changes theyre showing are based on the 2nd of the 2 price rises I assume?
Is there anywhere to see the baked in change before that?

(eg it shows Callaghan as having a BE of 50 and price change of $26k if he scores a projected 80. But i assume that would be 26k for the 2nd part of it and theres this hidden inital portion that the site isnt set up to show rather than that being what he actually will go up by with an 80 (it'd be say 80k, 54 + 26 say as a demonstration)

Except they'll be playing water polo instead of footy

How f’d is the new AFL app update. Aside from the layout which is completely screwed they’ve added a bunch of new stats nobody cares about but taken away CBA’s. Absolute mugs

 

[Phar Ace]

First ones picked that haven’t changed..

Sheez, Short
Oliver, Day
Xerri
Crae, Smith, Daniel

Sheez, Short (add) Leake
Oliver, Day (add Serong, Rozee,
Xerri (add) TDK
Crae, Smith, Daniel (Add) Rankine

Hate updates (says the man still using Windows 7)

 

[Phar Ace]

Dunno if this makes TDK prone to FWD time again

Probs, but who would they ruck, Cripps again?

 

[Phar Ace]

Making a debutant the sub should be banned from just a pure footballing point of view.

100% - There is always the bench interchange if the coach sees it as a worry.

 

[Phar Ace]

Imagine if he goes 140+ his ownership %

I'm still trying to imagine it - not enough pickle juice I think?

Maybe they should bus it up to Maroochy and catch the plan to Sydney from there. Be clear enough tomorrow to train here......

Don't think they allow that on the tarmac or the runways - always wanted to drive one of those little Capt's tarmac runabouts.....

You can just customise it back !
Advanced and then the little widget icon thing.

 

[Jozzy]

Sam Taylor might be worth a 1 week gamble to wait and see what SDK and Freijah do.

Big gamble, I certainly get it. The fact he could score a 40, owners would be limiting their trade plans in such a vital round where we usually fix trades do make the risk very very high.

 

[dplggr47]

Is Gruzewski a short term play? Has negative BE. Has been helping out in the ruck when Keefe was rucking in both the practice match and when Briggs went down. Has scored about a 50 in both, but the latest score involved 2 goals. Has the very early bye though.

Probably gets dropped when Hogan returns tbh

Think we can call Trainor a D6 lock now

That's a fast recovery. Thought he was going to be out longer. Now I have to figure out how to squeeze him into my team.
