What is the Classic Cup?

GameDay Squads head-to-head knockout system competition for both Rugby League and Aussie Rules! The Classic Cup is a head-to-head, survivor-style fantasy competition where coaches select a new squad each week. The losers of each round are eliminated, and the last remaining coach wins the cup! Each week, winners from the previous round will have their fixtures randomised.

Competition Details:

  • Format: The 2025 Classic Cup follows traditional survivor fantasy rules.

  • Competition Type: All squads must adhere to CLASSIC COMPETITION squad rules.

  • Participants: A total of 512 coaches will compete. (Top 512 post round 14 for Aussie Rules and Round 15 for Rugby League)

  • Fixtures: Each round's matchups are randomised.

  • Number of weeks: The competition spans 9 weeks, starting June 19, 2025 for Aussie Rules and June 20, 2025 for Rugby League.

  • Sports: Both Rugby League and Aussie Rules.

  • How to Enter: As the coach, you don't need to do anything besides set your Classic Competition squads each round! From there the GDS Team will create the fixtures and provide updates after each round for who is progressing, and who has been knocked out.


How to Play

As a coach, your only task is to set your Classic Competition squads each week! The GDS Team will handle the rest, creating the fixtures and providing updates after each week on who is advancing and who has been eliminated.

Coaches progress through the Classic Cup via head-to-head matchups in each week. The loser of each fixture is eliminated, while the winner advances to the next week. This continues until only one coach remains!

Example of match progression:

  • Week 1: ✅ 912 vs 830

  • Week 2: ✅ 899 vs 890

  • Week 3: ✅ 934 vs 910

  • Week 4: 900 vs 803 ❌ (Eliminated)

If you win your matchup, you move on. If you lose, you're out!

It is important to note: In the case of a draw, higher seasonal score will be the tiebreaker.


Prizes

Each week you survive earns you rewards:

  • Week 1: 1 x 3-player Common Pack

  • Week 2: 1 x 9-player Common Pack

  • Week 3: 1 x 9-player Rare Pack

  • Week 4: 3 x 9-player Rare Packs

  • Week 5: 2025 All-Star Card

  • Week 6: 1 x 9-player Unique Pack

  • Week 7: 3 x 9-player Unique Packs

  • Week 8: 1 x 10-player Elite Packs

  • Week 9 (Final): Prize Card
