Game Day 2026 Round 2 Fantasy Discussion

[Barrybran]

1,857; up 15k places to 720

POD's led the way with Gawn, Brayshaw and Gothard going big. Windhager really my only disappointment outside of the Rozee/Petracca injuries that everyone has. Massively KOTD this round having started the week trading out Blakiston and Gallop to Murdock and Duursma and pivoting to keeping Blakiston and trading out Lindsay instead to bring in Gothard after the Petracca injury.

Thanks mate. Just had a look at the top teams and there are a few Bont/English/Ash combinations.

How the hell did you turn 1 backman and 1 forward this week into 2 mids?

 

[happy_eagle]

1623. Just a bad round in general, happy to forget about it and bring take both Daicos brothers (and Waslh/Bruhn/Jagga) off the bench.

Magic

I turned a forward and a defender into a forward and a mid. But I started with 9 forwards so I was able to bring in two mids if that's how the cards fell.

[sligorover]

1546 pts from the donkeys - which is the wins the worst score on this thread .. maybe
$1.25m in bank to fix the band aids

 

[squashface]

1659 and held position around the 20k mark. Zorks, Houston, Naicos and D.Cameron coming off the bench to save the day for me now. Only Richards of note on the bench for me this week even though he is a glorified spud mid pricer

Don't worry; when Richards plays again at Marvel v Bombers it will be

Is anybody else's "team history 2026" page badly bugged out? It's telling me I've finished rounds 1 and 2 ranked much, much higher than I actually have. It's nice of them, but not true. I'd like to see it show the actual changes from round to round.

A tough week with a million sitting in the bank and injuries to two premos can really take it out of you. But it’s a long season, trade smart and the ground you’ve lost can be made up just as quickly.

Yep. Says I was 66th overall in round 1

Maybe that was the correct rank

Pretty happy with that given the outs, up from ~12k. Cash gen going nicely with 31 green dots, would have liked to have lost Blakiston and Parish this week, guess it'll have to wait with Rozee and Petracca out.

Looks like Gun's and Rookies is the go with just a couple of MP's, Jacques, Jagga, Murdock, Blamires, McAndrew, Marshall and Robertson are all very fieldable and they're just the ones in my team.

My Team History is out of whack as well

I turned two round one studs into round two duds (Grlj & Cook) while turning two round one duds into round two studs (Johnson & Watkins) and got the arse end of all of them.
That's Black Magic!

You'll never catch me though. Turns out barely watching a second of footy is great for this competition.
