Week 1 · Tuesday 9 September 2025
Twelve blokes, one spreadsheet, no idea
Round 1 delivered three fair-dinkum floggings, a 32-point quarterback on a bench, and the first committee inquiries of the season.
From the Commissioner's Desk
The 2025 season is away, and the early returns suggest nobody learned anything from the draft. Surtainly Autistic top-scored with 148.95 and still managed to leave Daniel Jones and his 32.2 points sitting on the pine — winning while blundering is the purest expression of this league's spirit and the Gazette salutes it.
Elsewhere Kempsey opened with 145.5 in a workmanlike win, MaHomie N Herbie put 45 points on Push Tush, and tim7w — still unnamed, stewards notified — flogged Post Chubb by 35. The wooden spoon betting market has opened and Deep Balls and Grimace drifted on debut.
