Inside the Numbers – Rd. 19

Congrats to those that made league finals, the challenge ahead will be finding adequate unique options to set apart your team from opponents hopefully for the final 4 weeks of the season.

Already plenty of coaches have jumped ship away from James Sicily & Tim Kelly, there may be an opportunity available to make some Round 20 adjustments this week if your match-up still has them.

Also make sure you are aware that AFL Teams will make game & player adjustments in the final 4 weeks of the H&A season (especially those teams in not AFL Finals contention), it is crucial to stay on top of news that may also provide another trade opportunity.

Good Luck!
