Bloody hell, Coleman with a 5 week hammy.

Never seen anything like this years injury plague.

saladin · June 9, 2026, 1:24am

Sheesh.

An absolutely decimated lineup ran Craze close and posted the third highest score across the league. It really does matter who you play sometimes.

Just checking if we’re all comfortable with playing injured players in bye weeks. Want to make sure I’m not cheating

wimmera1 · June 17, 2026, 9:51am

I played Gunston last week.
I don’t love it, but that’s the rules.

Edit: but if you have them on your injury list it won’t let you play them. Hmmmm.

redbull · June 17, 2026, 10:11am

This is my current injury list. Plus Petty who will go this week, Riley Hardeman and my LTI listed player Jack Viney

Split_Infinity · June 17, 2026, 10:17am

Definitely allowed

Windy_Dill · June 17, 2026, 11:08am

My position is if Keeper Fantasy allows it, go for it.

wimmera1 · June 22, 2026, 3:48am

lol.
Sorry for my trade pm’s.
Didn’t realise trade period ended 14 hours ago.
Bugger.

I thought it was running through the bye rounds (to end of next round)?

wimmera1 · June 22, 2026, 1:48pm

I mean…

Split_Infinity · June 23, 2026, 1:37am

@Windy_Dill can you confirm - is the trade period over or do we have until the start/end of this next round?

Windy_Dill · June 23, 2026, 1:44am

Trade period is over. Happy to extend by popular demand.

FYI all key dates in first post of this thread.

Windy_Dill · June 23, 2026, 1:46am

I definitely don’t like it. I think I did do it for Weitering, I figured it was allowed.

wimmera1 · June 25, 2026, 1:46am

Pimpinio Tigers trades Moraes and a third round to Hotdons for Yeo.

wimmera1 · July 13, 2026, 5:18am

It’s freaking wild that at this stage of the season there’s 673 points seperating 3rd and 7th, right?

And that third (no offence, Crushers) has the least points and 7th has the most?

wimmera1 · July 13, 2026, 5:28am

It’s been a cracker of a season.

I kind of miss the banter. As long as it’s good-natured. You suck, btw, Crushers, and we’re gonna destroy you this week.

I don’t know that we want two more coaches. Because if this is how 16 coaches works, when second-last on their day could absolutely smash first…that’s a friggin’ good league.

Windy_Dill · July 13, 2026, 6:00am

I agree 16 seems like a sweet spot. There’s no need for us to replicate the AFL with regard to team numbers. Having an extra 60 players in the free agency pool is a real benefit.

wimmera1 · July 13, 2026, 6:04am

I love that we all had reasonable access to the mid-season draft.

Look, honestly…I’ve been in favour of 18 keepers since forever. It’s such a small impact on the top teams and such a large impact on the bottom.

But sixteen teams addresses that.

This has been the best season in a very, very long time.

The_Melkman · July 17, 2026, 7:29am

I really hope everyone appreciates the sacrifice I’ve made by trading in Parish and then him immediately losing (any remaining) form and getting dropped. You’re welcome
