Round 12… The first week of a months worth of byes was largely quite fruitful for coaches, particularly those fielding over 18 and in doing so ridding themselves of those horsesh*t 30's... Read on for you weekly fix of corrosive footy chat! 12 down, 12 to go… Must be time for The Weekend That Was!

The Weekend That Was: Round 11
Round 11... In general, a pretty standard round of footy with par around 2200. Par certainly won't be 2200 over the coming four weeks as we enter the byes - more on that later! Read on for you weekly fix of corrosive footy chat! 11 down, 13 to go… Must be time for The Weekend That Was!
The Weekend That Was: Round 10
Round 10... A largely fruitful round in fantasy land for coaches with some big dogs putting up some uuuuuuge numbers! Conversely, the weekend was another reminder that we need to be 'rookie recycling' and getting them off the field in a hurry in the lead up to the all important byes.

The Weekend That Was: Round 9
Round 9... A largely fruitful round of fantasy footy for most, unless you owned Callum 'Pills, Thrills' Mills. In that case, commiserations and may your season rest in peace! Read on for your weekly fix of corrosive fantasy footy chat! 9 down, 15 to go… Must be time for The Weekend That Was!
The Weekend That Was: Round 8
Wowzers what a round of fantasy footy that was... Well, for some! Over a handful of players pumped out uuuuuge 150+ scores! Question is, did you have none, some or all of them? Read on for your weekly fix of corrosive fantasy footy chat! 8 down, 16 to go… Must be time for The Weekend That Was!
The Weekend That Was: Round 3
Round 3... It was a mixed weekend of footy as Fantasy coaches begin to settle on their squads! The curse of the late withdrawal struck leaving 10% of the competition scrambling for UDL-sized contingency plans... Other than that, we had the usual standouts mixed in with the mega spuds!
The Weekend That Was: Round 2
Round 2... Strangely, I can't recall the last time most coaches dodged all the Thursday night bullets and had all their rookies hold! Fast forward to Sunday, and coaches would have been relatively pleased in what was a (mostly) high scoring round... Unless you own Max, in that case, ta da 2023.
The Weekend That Was: Round 1
And just like that, the footy is back! What a whirlwind of a Thursday and Friday evening coaches had scrambling to get their squads in order! Round 1 had it all... Read on for your first edition of The Weekend That Was for 2023!
2022 Fantasy Review: Fremantle
Flagmantle Fremantle... Not a bad season but once again the only ship that will never dock in Freo is the premiership. From a fantasy perspective, it was basically all about the dynamic duo of Brayshaw and Brodie... In these reviews, we will take a closer look at each club’s Fantasy snapshot for season 2022, whilst I nominate players for MVP, best rookie and biggest flop. I will also provide my two cents on what to look out for in 2023!
Fantasy Fanatic’s 2022 All-Australian Team
With the recent unveiling of the 2022 All-Australian team, I was inspired by my stunt double (twin brother!) to create a squad for the 2022 season based purely on Fantasy numbers. Selection criteria is simple: highest averaging players and highest points scored in their respective positions across the season get a run! A starting side of 22 will be selected with an interchange/emergency in each position for a grand total of 26 players chosen. How much different will the Fantasy Fanatic's 2022 All-Australian team be to the official AA team selected on the 24th of August? Read on to find out!
