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.

I'm just passing on what's been said on the Carlton board by our ITK posters. I have no personal insight on the matter, never claimed to.

I'd had a glance at the Carlton board and hadn't seen anyone besides you mention TDK.

Anyway, apologies for the blunt tone - came off harsher than intended

 

[gutsroy]

Scoopscythe's just eager for the bloody ball to be bounced. None of this fancy-pants, late out stuff. No cats amongst the pigeons – the community is in a delicate state.

I plan on enjoying these next 21 or so hours before Cerra pings a string in the first five minutes and I start penning an apology for cultivating the seed in our collective conciousness.

Scoops been there, done that, bought the t-shirt,
Going around like a rutting rhino himself was going to punch on with my reflection in the mirror this morning,, go full Byron Pickett

You're on Cerra, too?
Funny how it works out, lukewarm on him and Perryman, both currently doing warmups with my main group .
Let's hope the collective burden won't be his undoing.

Have been talking the pick up for weeks. Was ready to back out a day or two ago as Walsh's inclusion has/had me worried, but like herpes, he's sticking around (barring a last-minute panic move tomorrow).

Helps that there's some decent bail-out options in Callaghan and Ashcroft there if/when things go inevitably pear-shaped.

 

[Chronz]

There's still talk there might be 1 change tomorrow depending on how they pull up overnight. Seems to be either TDK or McKay.

Walshy m9. This is 10x worse than anything you can troll me with in our shitfight fred. Please stop. I submit.

Yeah, I thought about him at stages, but the injury history was not ideal. Still worries, but...
Good start, works cash-wise and he knows how to get it in SC-wise, does the point-dense stuff

No probs Scythe. It's been around but a lot of posts on those threads have been being deleted in light of the Hollands news.

Anyway, I'm hoping I can lock him in and watch him go huge the first half of the season. Just saying to have a back up plan ready to go just in case.

 

[Jiska]

Just start the ****ing season already

Inb4 I want the season to be over

Big Pill used to cause solar eclipses whenever he out the bucket hat on in preseason training.

Bit of a bumpy preseason, reckon his ownership would have been 100% at the start of preseason.
Nothing wrong with going him, just hard to know if his body will hold up long enough.

He will never be in mine....unless they're derogatory...

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

Christ, have to decide on whether to commit to Cerra by this time tomorrow.
Sphincter toighter than tonight.
Can score, can do a calf walking down the driveway to check the letterbox

Easy sideways to a Washcroft or Powell type if already have Day & Callaghan

Yep much less risk this year with some of these expensive mid pricers. Usually it leaves you in no man’s land.

 

[buttox]

Happy supercoach day everyone!

 

[iDon]

We nearly here, monitoring HARD.

Last decisions is Cerra vs Trac / Rozee type.

Punched my face a few times about fading sheezel, clear thinking now.
