Game Day 2025 Round 1 Discussion

[South of the Yarra]

Twas the morning of SuperCoach, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The rookies had been selected by the experts with care,
In hopes that the SuperCoach Gods would be there;
The coaches were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of mid price magic danced in our heads;
With value all over and still room in our cap,
We had just settled our teams from our long summer nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and then came the crash
The moon lit our fears as our dreams all sunk low
We were smacked with reality by the objects below,
Because what to my wondering eyes did appear,
We knew it was coming, carnage was here.

O/U on how many minutes into Q1 the trades thread kicks off?

5 mins in to first game when Cerra does a string, I'll open it.

I currently only have 8 players with less than 20% ownership. Is that too few?

Nope

It's a game of trading

You know that

Is it too risky to pick Callaghan, without seeing the impact of the Green / Jelly / Callaghan combo ?

No, have you seen the size of Callaghan? He's built to be an inside mid. Cogs is done it seems. Jelly can go back to his favoured role.

fwiw I'm not picking him because of the early bye, but think he's going to explode. I'll look at trading him in.

Callaghan was my boy to pick in his Draft year ....I was all over him ...he's a quicker, more aggressive version of Jelly

I don't see Green effecting Callaghan. He might help if anything, winning the ball and giving to Finn.

 

[JuddgementDay]

It's been a huge off season by all the construction teams .....team innovations have been meticulously worked on, to get an advantage on the opposition

Some teams have taken big risks to get that advantage .....will it pay off ....will the reliability of these innovations be tested & found wanting ...only time will tell

It's a marathon .....but you don't want to crash & burn on that infamous 1st corner, that tests most teams .....just play it safe, and then settle down & enjoy the ride that is SuperCoach 2025

Is Callaghan the real deal .....is SDK a tease ....can a 2nd year player in Roberts really be the DEF QB for the Swans
Can Xerri back-up his awesome 2024 season, or will English reclaim his throne as a premier RUCK .....and will age wear our SC God, Gawn down ?

Can our midfielders regain their status as the premier scoring zone, after defenders have recently taken that mantle ?

So many unanswered questions that only time will answer

Welcome to Round 1 Discussion on the BigFooty Board .....we hope you will enjoy all the banter & fun, that traditionally we all have

Yippeeeee - now we can send a message to the AFL that’s the season is finally starting - the real deal!

I’m keen to watch some exciting AFL matches - enhanced by SC of course!

Now, I just need all my midpricers to show up

GL for the season everyone, but the $50K is mine

BTW - thank WaynesWorld19 for your enormous efforts on this SC forum. It’s greatly appreciated

 

[Funbeanman]

There's no right or wrong answer about whether to start Finn Callahan or pick him up after his round 2 bye especially he's on the bubble round 3,

I think he's a fine pick regardless of which way you leaning.

 

[Red4]

You can’t plan trades like that in SuperCoach, something always goes wrong. Also how do you even plan a trade before price increases? There’s no way you start players for two games. You either start Finn and cop it or wait and see until later in the season if he follows up

We will agree to disagree regarding Finn Callahan I'll leave it at that

Any concern for Cats/freo players?

 

[Funbeanman]

I still think Murphy Reid is in freo's best 23 regardless of what's happening around him

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

The Red Bull is still tempting me, not gonna lie.

Be more worried about your boy Nick, full body cramps incoming.

More worried about me moving into a new rental without a bloody air con

It will suit Freo way more than Geelong

This made me laugh
