The GOAT of AFL Fantasy, Moreira’s Magic, AKA Selby-Lee-Steere, joins two-time top 10 AFL Fantasy finisher and 2021 Runner-Up Kyle "Holmesy" Holmes for the final of The Holmes Files series in the 2024 pre-season.

Selby’s back-to-back AFL Fantasy Classic wins in 2017 and 2018 etched his name in fantasy history forever. Joining Holmesy for an intimate one on one interview in the week leading up to Opening Round, it’s time to pick The GOAT’s brain on a number of hot topics, and get his thoughts on some of the biggest names of the pre-season!

While Selby is now retired from AFL Fatntasy (he still dominates SuperCoach, his Moreira’s Magic platform has helped an average of 8 Moreira’s Magic members crack the top 10 of AFL Fantasy in the past two years, despite making up less than 1% of the competition.

Aside from creating the first AFLW Fantasy platform, Selby’s also recently launched a new fantasy platform called Bolter and has a draft platform (Slyder) in the works! The man truly is the GOAT!

Give Bolter a go – https://bolter.team/

AFL Fantasy is really starting to heat up as we got to see some televised practice matches over the weekend.

Then, five-time top-100 finisher, The Statesman, drops a team reveal ahead of the final official practice matches before Opening Round. Plenty will change ahead of the season, no doubt, but the Fossil's structure is looking fire just two weeks out!

It was only the first year at the helm for Adam Kingsley, and the G-Dubs nearly went all the way! What will year two of the Kingsley era bring for the rising GIANTS? 

As always, the Orange team is filled with juicy fantasy potential but with the grim 'opening round' reaper lingering over our selections, can we back in the high-priced premiums?

Dos, Lewy, Statesman, and Harmey talk about the bye-round impact for the GWS GIANTS, including just how tempting it is with two incredibly fantasy-friendly matchups to start the year.

PLUS: All the big names, including Tom Green, Toby Greene, Aaron Cadman, Josh Kelly, Lachie Whitfield, Lachie Ash, Stephen Coniglio, and much more!

Bevo is bound to give AFL Fantasy coaches more nightmares in 2024 as he undoubtedly shuffles the magnets once more this pre-season. But will Jack Macrae - the top averaging forward eligible player available to us - benefit from this shuffle?

Dos, Lewy, Statesman, and Harmey discuss this, plus plenty more Bulldog AFL Fantasy talk,  including Tim English, Marcus Bontempelli, Adam Treloar, Tom Liberatore, Ryley Sanders, Ed Richards, Caleb Daniel, and much more!

It's the Adem Yze era at Tigerland, and an offense-first mindset is set to kick into overdrive. Does this mean more fantasy points will be on offer or just the opposite?

Dos, Lewy, Stato, and Harmey try to figure it all out on the fly in this episode of our 2024 AFL Fantasy team preview series! There's plenty to discuss outside of the game plan as well, with the Opening Round coming into play once more, but also some spicy positional changes on the cards. 

Hear about all the hottest names including Tim Taranto, Dustin Martin, Jayden Short, Tom Lynch, Toby Nankervis, Liam Baker, Josh Gibcus, and, of course, Thomson Dow!

A new horizon is dawning at the SUNS with Damien Hardwick arriving in the off-season. That's great for the mighty Gold Coast SUNS, but what will it do for our AFL Fantasy teams!?!

Not only is there a new man at the helm, but we also have to navigate the opening round bye, with the SUNS having a bye just three rounds into the season.

Dos, The Statesman, Lewy and Harmey analyse the red and gold top to bottom to find all the options worth considering in season 2024, including Sam Flanders, Touk Miller, Jed Walter, Will Powell, Bailey Humphrey, Jack Lukosius, and more!

The Official AFL Fantasy podcast has dropped the brand new rules for season 2024 following the AFL's bizarre decision to introduce round 0 into the mix... 

It has massive implications for AFL Fantasy coaches who now need to navigate four extra bye rounds ahead of the usual mix of mid-season byes. So, what did the AFL Fantasy platform do the help coaches navigate this mess?

Join Dos, Lewy, Holmesy, and Harmey as they discuss all the new changes and the potential new early season strategies that AFL Fantasy coaches need to think about.

This week, the Headliner PodPod is all about robots. 🤖 Our team dives into one of the latest episodes by Rocketship.fm titled "Will Robots Take Over The World?" So, if you want to hear our thoughts on the episode (or about some of our team's fear of robots) - check it out below!

Description Powered by Eddy AI:

The Headliner team eagerly dives into discussing the rocket ship FM episode on robots. Nicholas praises the musical production but Alyssa's initial fear gives way to feeling robots are overhyped. Max drops knowledge about more pressing issues with AI today like model bias versus far-fetched robot takeover scenarios. A heated debate erupts around whether robots will pose an existential threat or if human manipulation enabled by technology is more likely. The team laments the episode didn't explore these issues more instead fixating on the tired "will robots take our jobs?" trope. Their wide-ranging conversation covers robot fails, 3D printed houses and the role of government in AI, leaving listeners hungry for insights into the fascinating implications of emerging tech.
