QAFL 2025

[Miller1971]

Sherwood. Can’t quite understand them. Seem to be pretty strong at home. Perhaps the smaller field is an advantage. They play like a top 4 side against most top 4 sides just like how they spanked the reigning premiers but then other games they play like a bottom 4 side. Very inconsistent team. Regardless of injuries or not.

Mentally weak. Came good when they had nothing to play for.

I've never been much good at tipping, but this is a record display of incompetence from me! Kudos for helping me access an untapped talent

Some great games coming up in the 1st week of finals , all games open to anyone winning really

Mentally weak. Came good when they had nothing to play for.

Sherwood may be mentally weak but Morningside seemed physically weak on the weekend… When the going got tough clearly the pressure is too much for Morningside. Heavily regressed from the side they were last year with some of their leaders not standing up when it mattered. Looking like straight sets then off to footy trip for the siders.

correct me if Im wrong but do they not have many young players who could be playing colts

They have a couple - duke fry and maybe McCarthy?

Tipping Cooparoo twice early and Sherwood in a few for upsets cost me. I blame Thommo.

 

[Thommo 42]

The team vs Broadbeach had 6 x Colts eligible players, the team vs Morningside had 5.

Plus Ryan Gilder is also Colts eligible, but he was injured in first half vs Coorparoo and hasn't played since.

There are no prizes for being younger. We acknowledge this was a year of missed opportunity, our best is very good but we were inconsistent and not always because of injury (though it does play a role, as it did for Morningside on the weekend).

Very positive signs for the future having 7 Colts play regular senior footy, the Colts going 17-1 and some strong improvement in the 20-22 year old brigade.

Having said that, if I'm sitting here next year on the eve of finals saying we have a good future having missed again - then I'd be taking the piss.

Wondering if anyone would like to for a bit of fun put in their final ladder for the H&A season?

The way it’ll work is I’ll keep a record of everyone’s ladder and the winner will be determined as to who got closest. So say for example someone had Aspley 1st and they finish H&A season in 4th, they would be given 3 points, if you correctly place a team it’s zero points.

I’ll add up all the scores for everyone’s full ladder, with obviously the lowest total score the winner.

Once you’ve submitted your ladder you’re locked in (no adjusting) and entries close once the first ball is bounced Saturday.

If we get min 5 takers I’ll put up a leaderboard every 6 rounds.

Anyway here is my final ladder to get the ball rolling, those that put one up a few weeks ago feel free to repost.

1. Aspley
2. Morningside
3. Broadbeach
4. PBC
5. RVP
6. Surfers
7. Maroochy
8. Sherwood
__________

9. Noosa
10. Grange
11. Labrador
12. Coorparoo
13. Mt Gravatt

Apologies for not posting a midseason update on the ladder predictor comp.

Congrats to SMY who went closest to having the correct ladder. Interestingly of 16 people that entered their ladder none had Labrador making finals so kudos to them for a better than expected season. 11 had Sherwood in finals and Broadbeach and Morningside were predicted to be higher by most and Surfers finished higher than most predicted.

Final scores (lower number is more accurate)

SMY1305 16
Bud63 & Allfornothing 18
Miller 20
Unspoken Brizz, Footyboy, Djonno 22
Carnthejets 23
Sportsfan, Migraine, Windsor Zillmere 24
Noosaboy & UpitStumpy 26
2010Premier 28
Thommo & Mobbs 32

All for nothing actually had 7 clubs in exactly the correct position.

In the end overall peoples ladders were pretty decent.

Tom Simpson not named for palmy?

Tom Simpson not named for palmy?

Suspended for 2 games , he should have been rubbed out for the year considering his record. Still don't know how he got away with deliberately Kneeing Ben Woodburn a little while back .

 

[Thommo 42]

think he only got 1 week

How does his record count for specific incidents?

good replacement for Simpson be it Thomas Thynne

Not sure how you can take an early plea , when you've had 7 reprimands (that's guilty 7 times) and suspended for kneeing in the last 2 seasons ... I'd say he's very lucky to not get 3 weeks instead of 2. (that's if it's two or less) for the early guilty plea .

They must be relatively minor offences if they’re early pleas down to reprimands and as I understand there’s only a certain number of reprimands a player can have in a season? Like 2 or 3?
