Sliding Doors: Opening Rounds

IF you thought moving to South Korea was going to reduce how much Nana's content is produced ...

THEN you're probably right, sorry in advance.

IF anything was to set the tone for the weekend…

THEN it was a Thursday night 25 from first round pick Liam Baker; hopefully that’s not the tone for the season.

IF you were dubbed the flag favourites in 2021, even by yourself…

THEN you’d want to avoid starting 0-2 with a loss against the side you tipped for the spoon.

Bailey Smith scored 131 off the bench but his side still fell short of Mundy and Boak

IF we wanted to overreact to The Catholic Church’s shock loss in round one...

THEN it means that Beat Jesse has already locked away their second consecutive minor premiership.

IF you dismantled the reigning premiers in round one…

THEN you can lock in a 2-0 start with a game against The UUFFT in round two.

IF you were meant to be one of the teams that went backwards in 2021…

THEN a whopping total of 1765 tells the league otherwise.

IF you were so confident about avoiding the spoon you swapped first round picks with Max’s Team…

THEN with Rowell and Harmes now out alongside Marshall and Rozee, you’d already be wanting that trade back.

Matt Rowell is expected to miss half the season after a knee injury on Sunday

IF it was almost expected league-wide that last year’s wooden spooners would be making their first finals appearance in 2021…

THEN after a league-low score of 1356, we’re not too certain anymore.

IF one coach predicted you to go winless for the first seven weeks…

THEN, after recording a first round win, you’d love to beat that same coach this weekend and hand them an 0-2 start.
