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.

Another fade of mine going to be late out and everyone bailing on bailey ffs

 

[JT_the_Man]

Serong, Jackson (this one feels make or break), NOD first up.

Fully see a world where I trade out Jackson for Baz after this game lol.

 

[Caztheconquerer]

Knevitt avoided the sub, Clark will start with the vest

Damn was hoping smith would be the sub, the melts would of been glorious

 

[ArdentEagle]

Do you put crayons up your nose?

Well...I know a certain rotund spider who definitely puts them up is bum

I feel your pain - there's been quite a few thirst traps this season that sprung early.

I’m a Jackson believer, he’s gonna go hog wild and be a top 3 ruck for us

 

[Deadly6]

every dingaling on here confident with Z.Reid pre game

Same same. It was either Reid or risking Leake as a possible sub. Leake to now go 100. Reid looked way off the pace but only 10 games in 4 years I think he will come good.

 

[SavDog23]

Is Murphy Reid a go or no?

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Brayshaw, NOD, Clark, Stewart, Smith, Knevitt starting for me first up.

 

[TheDoor]

Clark, Serong, NOD in the next. They better beat the three rookies I've had on field who have averaged 50 so far.

Which two of Stone, Davidson and Berry to field is my dilemma at the moment.

[tiltraise]

459/5

Stewart, COS, Brayshaw, Knevitt

Meid on bench.

 

[SavDog23]

Been endlessly switching between Zorko and Luke Ryan for weeks but have finally decided to go with my MVP from last season Luke Ryan.

Mainly because Zorko is a natural born campaigner but also because I can see him missing games through injury or being rested. I also don't wanna have to shower everytime I watch that kent play cause I will feel filthy having him in my side.

 

[iDon]

Knevitt / Reid (freo) or Hastie for final mid rookie spot?

Probably leaning towards Hastie

 

[South of the Yarra]

May the SuperCoach Gods be with us today. High scoring everyone

 

[A Bit Dusty]

With all the melts about Short's 83 on Thursday I thought there would have been a lot more after last night's game.

Zerret 89
Meek 78
Day 77
Martin 74
McGrath 74

Luckily enough I don’t have any of them, melting about the rookies was bad enough

Martin 74
McGrath 74

Short melts were the best because he has a history of fading but was still picked by many.

I would say that you'd be way more confident with zerrett / meek drops and reserve the melts.

Zerrett going to be so tasty after his bye

 

[Nelso]

TIme to repay the faith Tom Stewart.

It has been a wild ride the last few seasons.

Stewart, Clark, Knevitt and NOD in this game.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

May the SuperCoach Gods be with us today. High scoring everyone

Or ...."may the odds ever be in your favour"

Zerret 89
Meek 78
Day 77

McGrath shouldn't be on that list if you picked him you deserve everything that comes to you.

McGrath 74

I had Martin, then changed him to Short before lockout

+9 points and 100k bby.

 

[JuddgementDay]

This is a very interesting SC game, there are so many relevant players.

Most of us would have 4 minimum - but, of the players I don’t have, I’m interested to see how they go:

BSmith SDK Stewart
Clark Ryan Serong Brayshaw Bolton even Jackson

Players I have are actually on the boring side: Holmes, COS, Reid, NOD and Knevitt

 

[A Bit Dusty]

McGrath shouldn't be on that list if you picked him you deserve everything that comes to you.

I don't have any of them but I used McGrath as an example he is priced at 95 average and has a similar role to Short.
