Harmey Returns to Greatness! | Round 1 Review #PODPOD

Fantasy Footy is back for 2026 and for many, it was a stark reminder of the torture this game puts us through… but we love it and we wouldn’t have it any other way! The game was fast, transition players feasted whilst the rucks and inside midfielders really struggled to score like we are used to. There is plenty to discuss!

In this episode, a full panel is on deck this week to review round 1. The lads discuss their rounds and the key decisions they made, talk about the key topics of Errol trade outs, trading strategy around rookie options and key players losing value as well as answering a stack of listener questions. We say it every year, the rankings at round 1 are always skewed due to rookie roulette and the real grind starts this week navigating the season and trading your way to success!
