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

FOS contested mark I like it

 

[stevebbb]

I will need about 10 trades next week to get rid of all my underperforming players, 3 won't be anywhere near enough.

Yep. So many spuds. I really feel for those with Stewart.


Here's my trade out list:

Short
Prior
Trainor
Reid

Trac
Fos
Kako

Boyd

JHF
Paton

 

[Veer Right]

Lindsay is this years Darcy Wilson. Only player i can swap for him is FOS but i dunno if i want to do that, he he the role at HB and the scoring will come.

 

[stevebbb]

Lot of disrespect for North looking at the bookie line the opening three rounds. They are not spuds we have come to know. They have a fearsome midfield and it won't be easy for the opposition.

Agree, I tipped North to beat the Dogs last week, lol. I love North, they're certainly on the up.

What's that got to do with Trac being a bad pick though?

 

[Chronz]

Powell

It's going to be a sweaty trade week that's for sure.

 

[Wellsy35]

More of that Trac! About 20 more pls

 

[Jiska]

Christian ****ing Petracca

 

[SavDog23]

Think I will trade JHF.

Trac will be at F1 from RD6 onwards anyways.

 

[BOMBERBLITZ]

Is PIGGY Clarry back?

 

[gutsroy]

buttox Powell put o a bit of size? Unit

Maybe your venting at his score when the opposition had something to do with it. Trac is a gun and won't be stopped.

 

[SSwans2011]

Trac will be fine. Most the premo mids are injured or spudding it up anyway.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

FOS to whom? Just brought in Lashcroft and Lindsay this week

 

[TasSixer]

FFS Gawn and Petraca, score like premos ya kents

 

[Plugger35]

Could have done with a goal there Gawn, it was lucky to scrape through for a point.

 

[buttox]

Powell baby!
1% pod ftw!

 

[SSwans2011]

Xerri gone missing this quarter. Wake up kent.

 

[stevebbb]

FOS to whom? Just brought in Lashcroft and Lindsay this week

Henderson. $99k, looks like he's got a spot in that forward line.

 

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

This week you can brag about Powell Makeshift Park

 

[kyri]

FOS to whom? Just brought in Lashcroft and Lindsay this week

hendo 99k.

 

[Wellsy35]

Where was this last year Powell

 

[gutsroy]

BJW cramping before 3/4 time maybe good news for Flynn holders

Interesting one.
Nullified Big O and gave a good contest,.which is the best Williams.is ever going to give you.
Deserved to be further ahead, the Eagles.
Was 35 degrees, but he and Archer Reid both cramping up hurt them badly in the last

 

[Veer Right]

Never seen Gawn have such a low score in a half

 

[SSwans2011]

Agree, I tipped North to beat the Dogs last week, lol. I love North, they're certainly on the up.

They've noticeably improved this year. Reckon once the recruits settle in they'll be a real good chance of getting out of the bottom four this year.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Why did I trade out Powell after having him all pre season
