Game Day 2025 Round 11 - Sir Doug Nicholls Week 2

[swindle]

Got in Jackson this week, first week of the 2 week sugar hit giving me a high

 

[JuddgementDay]

Bolton sighting!

 

[kyri]

Yes but how to you have enough cash gen to do that when a lot of people are carrying rookies (hustwaite hall Saad stone Carroll etc and now Simpson) who are sub 200k? People will have to cut corners to field full teams.

would be very unlucky to have all 6. let alone be able to sit and stare at your team without rectifying it..

I traded carroll out at 181k for boxshall.. hasnt really worked out, but im currently carrying only 3 dead rookies.

 

[Scythe]

Freo giving that contract to Darcy when they already had Jackson was a diabolical list management decision

 

[team_dog]

Bergman tagging brayshaw

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I did too and I waited to make sure that Bolton and Simpson weren't too late outs before trading them in.

They may as well have been anyway.

Same here they were sound decisions at the time (especially simpson) but luck has killed my season.

 

[Jiska]

Bolton dead

That is harsh.

He is worth persisting with. Need to get games into him.

He’s getting his ass handed to him buy a second ruck. So far out of his depth. Not ready for AFL level based on tonight’s effort.

 

[kyri]

And did you stick with the Blonde God ?

 

[Nelso]

Jiska

Bergman half ton

 

[BOMBERBLITZ]

First time Serong owner here... geez he's a plodder... how does he even score?

I have Carroll stone hustwaite hall campo Boyd clohesy (fwd bench) Brock and now Simpson.
I'm sure a lot of coaches will be in a similar boat so you will see people cut corners with mid prices to finish teams.

Jackson isn't a second ruck.

 

[Plugger35]

Bolton is showing some signs of life at least.

All is not lost.

Have had all 6. Corrected Stone, but still have the other 5. Plus Paton, Knevitt and Boyd. Get around me.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Is A.Simpson based in WA still? Would have thought he'd pack up back to Vic

Wouldn't be then surprised if when Freo's season go completely south and he replaces JL

 

[Jiska]

Jackson isn't a second ruck.

He hasn’t been a first ruck at any time during his AFL career. He should be, but that’s a different argument.

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Xerri needs to get his hand off his helmet and start some of that premo sh!t I paid for

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

He hasn’t been a first ruck at any time during his AFL career. He should be, but that’s a different argument.

He's first ruck tonight.

 

[Jiska]

Jiska

Bergman half ton

He’s looked bloody good tonight. Everything you’d expect Butters to be TBH. Likes the wet it seems.

well done - frustrating, I had him at start of the season and was tempted to bring him back but Darcy is perennially ‘close’ to coming back in

 

[Scythe]

Changed trades and brought in Simpson

Meant I didn't bring in Serong

 

[kyri]

we're barely halfway through the season, and people are cutting corners already? right before a bunch of best 18 games??

im trigger happy. but come on.. heeney at 510k didn't interest anyone? taking players you can afford, over players you want, will usually not end too well..

 

[Pathetic Pittman]

What a night of extremes so far

Xerri (VC) and Rozee smashing it

Bolton and Parker spudding it up badly

Parker been great, may need a rest

 

[JuddgementDay]

Serong should excel in this weather - but he’s spudding it up

Did somebody say dead rookie?
