Random question , but what is this 'round 0' the AFL are doing?

Is it preseason , or is it for competition points? Why are they calling it 0

Its a normal round ie part of the week to week comp. I have no idea why theyve called it 'opening round' and rhen next week is round 1. Its actually fucking stupid.

The whole point was supposedly to capitalise on the nrl being in vegas by having four games in qld and nsw but then they did it on the actual week that nrl was being played here and not the vegas weekend

Its basically their state of origin.

State vs state.

isn’t it because they launched the season outside VIC so the Melbourne teams got mad

So round 0 is the first half of the split round and Round 1 is so Melbourne clubs can say the season kicked off with the traditional opener of the Fumblers vs the Seagulls chasing the Hot Chip

I’d probably accidentally bring JAC in

Its not really a split round tho cos lions played yesterday and then play next week as well (same for the other teams that played this weekend)

Wow yeah it’s 4 games in round 0 then the full 9 in round 1. Don’t know when the other 10 teams make up for not playing R0. Very weird

It’s not a bad marketing tactic if they played the games in the correct week.

Anyway Dragons are leading the comp.

Hopgood - perhaps this big min lock role was a myth. Mid curved not starting with haas there.

Hutch - 34 in a team that was that bad? Honestly not the worst

Salmon - 29. Lokks bad, got sent to edge then centre before half time? Was on like 20 after 20 haha..

Kiraz - did fine tbh.

Hughes - plodder

Kini - hes not ready for first grade and the titans are woeful


All in all.. questionable players in shit teams is not wise. As always.

Ive ended on 754 by the looks

I had;

Hutch - and I'd agree that compared to the rest that's okay with me. Hope he holds his spot and Dogs improve.

Salmon - did he score a point at CTR? Pretty sure he didn't. Just have to hold and hope for now.

Hughes - yep, doesn't look like much action here.

Kini - I didn't think he was specifically bad considering how bad the Titans were overall. I'd hope for more from the Titans, and him as a consequence. Not overly hopeful, though.

V.Fifita - as noted above, I swapped him in for Flanno late in the piece. I'm not sitting here devastated I didn't get Flanno, but I am frustrated that there is no disputing the fact that he will need to be moved on. Annoyingly, his PPM was gold with 13 points in 12mins. But they obviously have absolutely zero plans to include him in the squad this year. Can't see him holding a place on the bench, and with 12min stints it doesn't even matter if he does.

Yep, when you get 12 minutes in a game and have Sele, Lawrie and Lucy to come into the team, things are looking grim.

14/589

Robson/Lolo/Sos remaining

I didnt mean he was bad. He lacks a bit of size. Not going to bust tackles 1v1, every time he carried the ball he was being swallowed. He looked keen for a run, but in a side like titans there isnt much chance to get on the end of attack.

my dear departed father loved golf when i was younger you hardly ever saw him on the weekend up very early back very late due to the 19th hole. in fact he holds some record in nz where if your round score was lower than your age it's some sort of big deal & he played golf well into his early 90's & was scoring lower...he was a very fit & was a builder & he didn't smoke well all his mates smoked so they were all dead into his 80's so my older brother would play golf with him.

Less than 0.04% of golfers ever achieve this. Think about it. The average golf course has a par of 71. How good do you need to be to break par at the age of 72. It's something very rarely done. My 82 year old mate did it a couple of weeks back. shot 80. He used to be a pro. Has a handicap of 15 now.
