Inside the Fantasy Numbers – Round 18

The scramble is on to find extra funds to complete what should be the final few trades in preparation for AFL Fantasy Finals, looking at quite a few highly ranked teams some benches remain thin with very little cash reserves with many wanting an overdraft facility at this time of the year. As a result options are very limiting without a healthy bench and a solid bench to extract cash from, all is not lost if you sit comfortably with the knowledge of playing finals with a solid team structure. For others it is likely a must win game in Round 19 to secure a spot in the finals or even a Top 4 position.

Trading decisions are extremely important this week and game match-ups might provide an insight in to potential short & long term winning moves, the numbers below could deliver comfort in knowing your player/s are in a position to succeed at a time when you need them the most.
