The final week of the Fantasy season is here and we go into round 24 with a massive forced trade, Harry Sheezel. The popular MID/FWD has been a stalwart of teams since round one, but looks to be a must-trade for the Fantasy Grand Finals. The Traders run through who they think will be the best scorers in the final round using the Scale of Hardness and Roy’s Rollin’ 22 as a scaffold to name the top players and throw in some other ideas.
Don’t forget to tune in to AFL Fantasy LIVE on Thursday from 6:15pm AEST on AFL.com.au and the AFL Live app (podcast will be dropped into feed shortly after). Next week will feature the traditional Mad Monday episode.

Bit of talk Naicos, Jaicos and Cameron could be rested
Certainly could be carnage if players are rested and Heeney and Warner are stood down Michael.
Bont to miss again too.
Plus Petracca and now Horny. Destruction everywhere
Only had 22 green dots last week. Having 4 payers out last round of your on field squad I had T.Murray with 16 on field which was not fun. I still got to 2429 a respectful round score.
This round I can only hope that not too many get a rest because there may not be any cover.
The AFL doesn’t make playing fantasy easy with early byes, mid season byes, wildcard rounds, constant rule changes…
Bad Swans, Bad Swans, what you gonna do, what you gonna do when they come for you. Good news is I have guys like Herbert, Fitzgerald, Artemis riding the bench. Bad news is I’ve never been able to upgrade them due to all these shenanigans. And still not certain if I’ve have 22 playing this weekend.
The Sydney Bomb went off.
The final round is going to be absolute chaos. 😂
