Game Day 2025 Fantasy Round 2 Discussion

[WaynesWorld19]

Well, R1 is over .....my Feakin OP outdone by a poem ....for some, there's a bit of work to be done, some reconstructive work to be done on their side, or as I prefer to call it ....cosmetic surgery

All in all, I think we can agree, the matches last week were awful to watch ...error ridden, sloppy skills ...I dare say, if not for AFL Fantasy, I would have gone back to my Macramé

But, a new round awaits us .....renewed enthusiasm ....did my trades work.

Gee, it's good to have footy back

Have a great week everyone ....and good luck

Is this the 2026 pre-season thread?

At this stage, best 18 will hopefully come from:

Thursday: Day, Cerra, Hollands, T.DeKoning (4)
Friday: Sanders (1)
Saturday: Dawson, Short, Macrae, Smith, S.DeKoning, NWM (6)
Sunday: Washcroft, Lashcroft, Clarry, Sheez, Daniel, Xerri, Roberts (7)

Hopefully who I won't need to call on: Trainor, Lindsay, Garcia, Davidson.

Just the 5 rookies on field and get to take the best one, good work. Any loops?

Great point. I can take a crack at two loops:

Zach Reid (Sat first game) for Trainor (Sat second game) with Taylor as the loop; and
Davidson (Friday night) or Max Hall (Sat second game) for Co. Warner (Sunday last game) with Stone as the loop.

Hmm one to watch and wait a week or two to decide on what to do, i wonder if this means Hollands back to the wing aswell?

Who's 'the both'? I can't see it

Cerra and Hollands

That was the scare with Hollands and it’s happened one week into the damn season

FWIW I don’t own either Hollands or Cerra but it sucks for their owners

 

[4tune8]

Cerra and Hollands

Thanks, just Cerra here, was a bit cheezed that Cerra was moved back late last game and Doc moved to the mids.

They obviously need someone with composure down back after losing Newman, I can't for the life of me think why Doc isn't being used in that role

On the positive side Richmond broke Carlton

Yep, every team now has the BLUE print on how to beat them...............sorry

 

[Pure Grunt]

Need to choose 3 from 5
NOD (Syd)
Lashcroft (WCE)
Lindsay (Roos)
Campo (Hawks)
FOS (Melb)

Same lol. Soft run coming up and just gotta watch it. I’ll be getting off them both at R7 or before pending the outcome of the changes
I hope they can do something grr

Me laughing at people with Cerra and Hollands while my team has about 15 players that are considerably worse…

Just realised if Doc goes mid, Cerra goes back, Hollands goes wing then who goes sub? Campo!!!

I'll get the trifecta of getting ****ed over

Haha agreed, this would be disastrous

Hey google, what’s the racing term for correctly predicting the first 20 finishers instead of just the first three??

Well anyway. I’ve got the twentyfecta of getting screwed over.

I refuse to concede that I picked bad players, I’ve just been unlucky.

Maybe next time you should try pick the worst 30 players and if you fail 20 times you'll be in the running for a car...

It is highly unusual for so many vanilla picks to perform in round 1

Scratch this, i've realised that I can just get both SDK and Friejah this week.

I was worried about moving Leake on to Hall, but Hall probably isn't as much of a must have that I shouldn't just take the points now. If I trade Taylor instead of holding I can get 18 mid pricers or premiums on field without relying on any rookies.

Thursday: Day, Cerra, Hollands, T.DeKoning (4)
Friday: Sanders, Freijah (2)
Saturday: Dawson, Short, Macrae, Smith, S.DeKoning, NWM (6)
Sunday: Washcroft, Clarry, Sheez, Daniel, Xerri, Roberts (6)

Will then have Ashcroft, Lindsay, Garcia and one of Davidson / Warner snapping at their heals to keep them honest.
