Inside the Numbers – Rd. 13

We have arrived at the final Bye week of the season, scoring well in Round 14 will be critical for those that made a move in the opening 2 games of the Bye period & especially for those that have a heavy Round 14 structure in order to make up lost ground.

Regardless of where you stand, setting up your team for the run home should be a high priority. Those players that are being traded-in right now will likely remain in your team for the remainder of the season.

Trade well!
