Chat log from R5 of 2025: North Melbourne vs Gold Coast

Pavs: Afternoon all
EvilMonk: Afternoon Pavs and all
Stu7: Hey Pavs
Stu7: I traded Xerri don?t trust this hammy
EvilMonk: I finally took the VC/C option off Xerri, prob will go 140 now lol
Stu7: It would be a risk but you?re right now the I?ve traced him he?ll go –
Pavs: Yep got VC on TDK this week if that doesn’t work panic
LionBoy: Afternoon all. Xerri to go big today. I bypassed him for VC. Carrying a niggle and Wittsy miserly.
Birdman18: He has tendonitis Lionboy, I’m not expecting much
pluggerpig: i put the C on Sheez at the last second…
LionBoy: Yeah Pavs I think I?m gonna have to C TDK directly. Risky looping.
Stu7: C Brayshaw thoughts?
XquaHD: Back to round two of Humphrey gets one touch and benched for the next ten minutes?
XquaHD: At least Curtis looks a good pickup off my draft waivers
AGauci30: Boyd wont be playing for saints
original: Humphrey going bench after 3 mins. Man i regret that trade over Maric
Stu7: Daniel and Cheezel both on the bench oh dear come on guys 95% game time please
Birdman18: I’ve been switching between Bayshaw and Whitfield Stu
Pavs: Yeah good Stu. Not sure who I’m trading in yet Brayshaw or Serong
circle52: One of the few without TDK so going Neale into Serong
XquaHD: Simpkin half of his score last week in nine minutes
original: Insufficient that?s a f&$ing joke
Stu7: Thanks Pavs & Bird
XquaHD: Is FOS worth a trade in if he does well today?
LionBoy: It?s the ?if? that?s the problem Xqua. Traded him out early so biased.
Pavs: I traded him out Xqua so its a no from me
XquaHD: I probably don’t need to waste a trade on him tbf as I get more issues come up each week
Apachecats: Rowell one effective disposal in 15 mins ,oh my!
XquaHD: Had given Campo a chance hoping he’d at least make emergency this week but he’s not even the best Campo in the VFL side
nbartos: flanders, touk, noah Pull ya fingers out!
LionBoy: At the risk of receiving feedback, brought in Rioli this week.. sorry holders.
XquaHD: Swapped for Lynch who I’d dropped this week originally as at least I can probably blow a few more bucks (and a score)
Pavs: Blake Acres a late out. Probs not relevant but…
Stu7: So far the Xerri trade has paid off
Fordy13: Who’s you go instead Stu
original: Hey guys drafted Flanders with my first pick in draft pick 8. Genius me
Fordy13: Who’d*
Apachecats: Rowell working his way to the bottom of the page.
pluggerpig: good start humphrey bear
Hooks: Would you look at that Humphrey not doing to bad?
MrWalrus: Humphrey gonna be top 6 forward
original: Wow humph
CamT: Rowell does this every season.
Birdman18: Everyone’s snoozing on Touk
Birdman18: Will he the best Gold Coast player this year
pluggerpig: rowell on my never again list. fades out every year. touk far more consistent.
LionBoy: Got Hump as my flex. Wasn?t looking that clever 10 minutes ago.
original: Imagine touk gets dpp
nbartos: is flanders injured?
Stu7: TDK Fordey
Birdman18: He might by round 12 Original. Not this week though
MrWalrus: He’s no longer sexy
original: Not sexy at all. Killing my draft team
XquaHD: Wonder if I could pick up flanders on my draft for peanuts npw
Pavs: Rowell’s decision making and kicking it a bit more is better this year
EvilMonk: why is 15m so much shorter in the D50 than the F50?
J_Herer: Flanders started slow last week didnt he?
Primetime: flanders will still ton up
nbartos: Xerri doing the C proud
missmagic: who wouldhave thought that in a massive fantasy trade where i picked up t.grren and flanders,that the steak knives jack
Birdman18: What a dud pick Xerri has been this year
missmagic: macrae would be saving my blushes
TheLegend6: Here comes sexy flanders
clay007: Xerri not the same since he hurt his knee two weeks ago
Pavs: Concerning clay I agree
clay007: His first few weeks were huge. I was surprised he was named last week
MrWalrus: Anyone else hearing the enthusiastic gentleman in the crowd going off?
Pavs: Yep that’s Wada Walrus
original: Humphrey where are you
LionBoy: My Rioli trade going well.
Birdman18: Points chasing never works Lionboy
Kangagang: Sheez!
Birdman18: All those people who traded out Sheez before last week are deleting their teams right now
MrWalrus: Hehe, classic wada
Noxious: I’m here at the game, no water, shade or toilets anywhere on the wing next to the commentary box, so bad
Raspel31: I didn’t so much trade Sheezel but amicably agreed to part ways.
bhg26: Sheezel doing to those who traded him what Luka did to the Mavs on return
XquaHD: Come back after finishing up work. Sheez Rowell Daniel ig Curtis get in there. Xerri brother what are you doing
LionBoy: 2 nineties and the big 160 Bird. Didn?t seem just a points chase at the time.
original: Maric already over taken Humphrey after 16 mins. Fml trades like that ruin your year
LionBoy: Imagine if you traded JHF last week and Sheez this week.
Harambe: Only a 1st year coach would do something like that LionBoy
J_Herer: O’Sullivan worth the hold so far
LionBoy: That?s salting someone?s wounds Hara.
clay007: Xerri…great comeback
OffaStep: Got an Op with Sheez VC. I took TDK VC because I don’t like making the call after a quarter. Sheez has validated that.
Harambe: Not really, I made plenty of nonsensical moves like that in my first year of DT. We all suck as beginners
original: Can?t wait to rage trade Humphrey and punch myself in the groin for being sucked in over maric
circle52: Not the only one that Humphrey over Maric.
Primetime: good to see finny finally have a break out game, been hoping for this. good lad
Harambe: Happy Humphrey was a wrestler in the 50s and 60s billed at 802 pounds
OffaStep: Did he get in all manner of strife, Harambe?
original: Circle I had Maric all week and then got convinced on game day to flip
Harambe: Pretty amazed he lived to the age of 62 Offa
LionBoy: 62 without ever blinking. Sad life
donsboi: I have noble and happy atm
Harambe: You’re a nobleman
LionBoy: Great POD don
MrWalrus: Listening to Dermie is like flossing your brain with barbed wire
DragonLass: The 5.458 people who traded O’Sullivan out this week must be feeling sheepish
Birdman18: Get on the ground Sheez
TheOnyas: Onya Longys
DukeNewc: Dragon, most traded him out a while ago with the injury he copped
SwaggyP: Walrus-truer words have never been spoken
OffaStep: Yeah, but if you held until now, Duke… Ouch.
ausgooner: Dragon, I traded one O’Sullivan for another O’Sullivan so no regrets at all
KneeGears: thought I got stitched up again trading Rowell in, turned it around
Phasir: Laura Kane’s babies vs Gil McLachlan’s babies. There’s around 30 priority picks in this match
Phasir: And/or Academy picks
KneeGears: what role is sheez playing this game? not watching it
Noxious: I was so happy with Rioli in my draft team last week, not so much today
Harambe: Usual mid-fwd role KneeGears
KneeGears: appreciate it harambe
EvilMonk: who was flaming out Rowell before? Aged like milk in the sun lol
Birdman18: No impact from Sheez in that quarter
original: Big finish please Humphrey
robrocco: these gc jerseys give me 3rd jersey alternate vibes like from man city and barca when they wear fluro lol
Rebuild: I seem to have a knack for bringing in players the week before their role drastically changes
original: Wish gc went with black guernsey with pink logo
sMiles: Where’s Humphrey … Serious too hard to bear!
OffaStep: Got Hump looped with Davidson. After last week, I’m feeling twitchy backing Davidson in over 60.
original: Cmonnn humph get a goal or something
Roarix: Ppl who complained about Rowell.. womp womp
Raspel31: Humph not a primo- what did everyone expect-150? He’s plodding along.
MrWalrus: Just a little honey for Humphrey, it’s his favourite
sMiles: That’s not really that much B-Better Humphrey – Keep moving up – last minutes – get a kick
sMiles: B-Bench Humphry… B-Boo
sMiles: Bench loving hard to bear
Birdman18: Sheez only 20 since halfway through the second
original: Flanders some come back. Was 4 at QT
Raspel31: Rivetted to the bench- no here’s Humphry today alas.
Roarix: Of course Xerri has been parked.. ffs
original: 12 min on the bench to end game Go get effed Humphrey
dave2021: Humphrey sad ppl who got him not me lol
LionBoy: Can?t all have a team of champs like you Capt Hindsight
MrWalrus: He’s a funny old fellow.
XquaHD: What a comeback rowell you lovely fella
XquaHD: Humphrey just barely ok
