IT HAS all come down to this! The last round of the 2023 Toyota AFL Premiership Season is also the final round of AFL Fantasy where premierships are won for summer bragging rights … and one lucky coach will be driving around in a Toyota HiLux.
Darren, coach of Wise Ocean PODs, and Jonathon, coach of Fleabaggers, are ranked at the top of the overall ladder in Fantasy Classic. Darren holds a 57-point lead and there are only two players of difference heading into round 24, before trades.
Calvin suggests that moving on one of Andrew Brayshaw or Caleb Serong could be a good move considering Finn Maginness is likely to clamp one of those. The tagger has been holding some of our favourite Fantasy midfielders to low scores and you don't want that in your Grand Final.
Bringing in a Crow due to the West Coast match-up is going to be a popular play. Is Taylor Walker, who would like to win the Coleman Medal, an option?
Roy, Calvin and Warnie preview the round ahead and look at the best way to use your final two trades for the season. They also catch up with former Port Adelaide player, Sam Colquhoun, to discuss his team that is currently ranked 10th overall.
