For the third time this year, Bailey Smith was a late out and had Fantasy coaches scrambling. Roy held, but Calvin and Warnie traded … with mixed results. Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera was the captain of the week and we saw the last set of DPPs added to the game. But it is all about what moves coaches should be looking at ahead of round 18 in the latest episode of the Official AFL Fantasy Podcast.
