Game Day 2025 Round 2 Discussion

[South of the Yarra]

Round 2 in Poetry

The rookies from all over came,
With a price so low, they hailed their name,
"Get Tsatas in your squad!" the pundits cried,
FOS is a gun, his price would rise

But when the game kicked off, what did we see?
Davidson, my goodness me!
Few tackles, some kicks, no points to gain—
We were simply left with Rookie pain.

And those premiums, we trusted so,
They burnt our teams, their scores so low
A big score or two seemed all too late—
Our Supercoach hopes met an early fate.

Lachie burnt us and Sanders too,
Will we ever learn? Trade Round 2
Our anger built, our hand was dealt
The only thing to do was melt

But don’t lose hope, it’s still the start,
The season’s long, so don’t lose heart
With trades in hand, we’ll fix our flaws,
Rebuild our teams, rewrite the laws.

For hope’s not gone, it’s just delayed,
A few good picks and we’ll be saved.
The tide will turn, we’ll rise once more
Supercoach dreams? A massive score

The season’s early, but can we see—
Supercoach hopes? A fantasy

 

[Veer Right]

Never saw the saints winning tonight in a million years. Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde team.

SDK i still have no interest in
COS has locked himself in
Jack Sinclair with an interupted preseason is in serious consideration
LOC - Will be a long burn but might be a safer option then Trainor as he's older
Keeping Hugo

 

[Smooth Banana]

Paton to O Sullivan first trade

 

[TheEscapeClub]

Panicked and slapped the VC on Macrae just before the game when I heard Smith was a late out.

 

[Scythe94]

Might be some big scores, half my players were shit still projected 1900+

 

[Petrify]

Jack Macrae was 2 marks off the extremely rare AFL quadruple double (10 kicks, 10 handballs, 10 marks, 10 tackles). And he did it at 82% efficiency with 9 clearances. Absolutely insane game.

 

[Veer Right]

9/865

4 rookie scores removed. 7 big guns tomorrow plus Lashcroft and NOD.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

10/748

Cracking day;
71, 61, 24, 168, 74, 58, 9.

Can't wait for SBS

 

[Wellsy35]

Taking out my lowest 5 scores, I'm sitting at 7/643. Gonna be a big day tomorrow.

Washcroft
Hewett (bench)
Xerri
Sheez
Daniel
Trac C
Piggy
Lindsay
Serong
Clark
NOD
Roberts

The last two games will make or break my round. Projected 1811 which feels unders with some lowish projecteds for Clark (83) and Trac (95).

 

[Biggie]

Insane, used these facts on my board Petrify

 

[vanders]

Hope Bevo watched Macrae and cried

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Stewart, Smith and the Horny one. Absolutely cooked me today.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Jack Macrae was 2 marks off the extremely rare AFL quadruple double (10 kicks, 10 handballs, 10 marks, 10 tackles). And he did it at 82% efficiency with 9 clearances. Absolutely insane game.

Not a bad return for pick 45, you could say.

 

[Faz 2000]

I don’t want to gloat too hard, but I’ve had two…. Yeh, you read that right 2!… tons so far.

 

[Dougy85]

12/804.

5 lowest scores to hopefully drop out 9, 24, 34, 39, 57

 

[stevebbb]

13/1276 +C (Rozee)

Minus Trainor's 24
Minus JoeBerry's 56
Minus Knevitt's 58
Minus JHF's 61

Puts me at 9/1077 +C
I have 10 in play tomorrow:
Sheez, Clark, Roberts, Trac, Oliver, NOD, Lindsay, Xerri, Daniel, FOS
I reckon I can get 930 out of that lot and hit 2000, but SBS...


Edit: another score needs to drop lol, cbf doing more maths. I guess 1900 is the achievable goal, not 2000

 

[TheDoor]

Fielded Hall instead of Kako. Couldn't even get that right.
11 played, 7 under 60. Still have Flynn as Flex. Do I use a boost and flip him for Lashcroft?

 

[Saint Shags]

Panicked and slapped the VC on Macrae just before the game when I heard Smith was a late out.

I did the same thinking maybe I could at least get a small win for the evening!

 

[mochacinolatte]

Yeah yeah, get ****ed you VC/C Macrae players.

 

[Caztheconquerer]

I bloody hope serong isn’t tagged tomorrow

 

[Saint Shags]

Yeah yeah, get ****ed you VC/C Macrae players.

After stupidly putting the C on Neale last week I'll take all the help I can get!

 

[Raveneyes]

11/1032 (C)

Lowest Five 24, 34, 57, 61, 74

WAshcroft
LAshcroft (if he's sub, will update trade to Lindsay instead)

Gawn
Xerri
Sheezel
Petracca
Oliver
Daniel
FOS
(Lindsay)(Only if LAshcroft is sub)

Clark
Roberts
O'Driscoll

Confident my green text players beat 74.
If my remaining rooks beat 74 I'll be in good shape.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Well done saints kenties too good.

Mac was on .

Not bad recovery from.
Homes and mitchy K.

Stewie inj prob opens up bit extra JS for COS.

Saints play the doom way better than us z.
We were coming but run out of cat nip.

 

[Ingy]

1357/13+C.

The two scores I hope will drop out are 57 and 61.

That would make me 1239/11+C.

Roberts
Bice

Olipig
FOS
NOD

Baker
Helmet
Hewett
Dewar

If no more than two of that lot score below 70, I'd be delighted
