LUX trades for the AFL Fantasy finals are a double-edged sword and Roy feels he is on the wrong end of his big decisions.

Murphy’s Law sees a lot of negative trades in recent weeks where coaches essentially trade lateral premiums. Roy lost 10 points by “upgrading” Connor Rozee TO Adam Treloar. It made sense. Shape, fits… and everyone else was doing it.

We have to get on the right side of the 50-50 calls going forward.

There are plenty of close calls this week for coaches to consider. Filling out the forward line has been a big talking point, and we’re probably no closer to having an answer. Games worth of Matthew Phillipou or James Peatling check boxes. You could even consider the northern pair Tom Powell or Jaidyn Stephenson in their friendly Fantasy roles.

In the back, it’s a decision between Jack Sinclair and Nic Newman for some. The first two rucks are Tristan Xerri and Rowan Marshall. If you didn’t have any, how did you share them?

Traders have a chance to make the right calls before round 22; fantasy semifinals. They answer lots of questions as the end of the business season is well and truly here.
