There are only two seasons ... Footy Season and Waiting For Footy Season

How does Footy Rocks work? It is a lot like other dreamteam competitions but each week you pick a team of players IN POSITION. You will need 2 back pockets, a full back, two half backs as so on. No zones or salary caps here. We get the team lists on a Thursday night and then open selections until the first game starts. It's a unique version of dreamteam that has been going for 22 years now.

The best bit? Only your BEST 5 SCORES count. If you miss a week or start late then do not worry. You will be in it right up to the end.

The Footy Rocks top 8

This is the Footy Rocks top 8 for season 2025. The ladder order is based on the best 5 scores made by each player. The Blitz! score is how much you need in the next game to jump into the top 8. If you are already in the 8 then your Blitz! score is how much you need to take top spot.

No footy makes Homer something something so last weekend we held the count for the Footy Rocks Dermlow Medal. The player who gets the highest Footy Rocks score in each game gets 3 votes. Next highest gets 2. Then 1. If there is a tie then both players get the votes. Players are still eligible for the Dermlow even if they get suspended because that stupid Brownlow rule is a throwback to the days before there were cameras everywhere and you had to do something outrageous in front of an umpire to get reported. The top 10 in the 2024 Dermlow medal were... 10th - Nick Daicos (co) - 19 votes (it is currently a legal requirement to have a Daicos win something at every awards function) eq 9th - Nick Martin (es) eq 9th - Tim English (wb) eq 9th - Andrew Brayshaw (fr) - 20 votes eq 8th - Dayne Zorko (br) eq 8th - Noah Anderson (gc) eq 8th - Brodie Grundy (sy) - 21 votes eq 7th - Zach Merrett (es) eq 7th - Zak Butters (pp) - 22 votes 6th - Lachie Neale (br) - 23 votes 5th - Harry Sheezel (ka) - 25 votes 4th - Lachie Whitfield (gws) - 28 votes 3rd - Max Gawn (me) - 30 votes 2nd - Tristan Xerri (ka) - 34 votes And the winner is... 1st - Rowan Marshall (sk) - 38 votes Congrats to Rowan Marshall from St Kilda, winner of the 2024 Dermlow Medal.

Round 5 is here. Collingwood and Sydney have byes so their players will be available in their round 4 positions and will get their average score so far for the year towards your total. Pick your team now before they all get suspended for calling eachother names like they are in an Xbox Halo lobby.

Round 3 is the big Easter round with games from Thursday to Monday. Suns and Giants have byes so you can pick players from those teams now under the usual bye rules. The teams for Geelong and Hawthorn will not be named until Sunday afternoon so they will be available to select NOW in their round 2 positions but with round 3 scores. Pick your team before they allegedly sneak off for secret drug testing and fake an injury.
