Team Sheets – Rd. 7

All the news, rumours, and team sheets for round 7!

It’s Thursday!!

I think this could be the week for carnage!  There are a lot of injuries going around and I’m hoping other teams follow Geelong’s lead and start resting youngsters.  I’m absolutely ready for some chaos because there’s been six rounds so far and I’ve scored between 2100 and 2200 every single week, it’s incredibly boring!

No partial lockout, finally!  Round seven doesn’t start until 19:50 AEST Friday night so have all your trades locked in by then!  The Traders will be reacting LIVE today from 18:15 AEST on the Official AFL Fantasy Facebook page to the team announcements, so think of this article as your text-based companion guide.

As always, this post will be updated as more information comes in, so if you’ve seen some news that I’ve missed feel free to tweet it at me and I’ll follow it up.
