AFTER a big campaign, the AFL Fantasy finals are finally here for leagues playing a final eight.
Coaches who finished in the top four will get the double chance. A win, they're through to the round 23 preliminary finals, a loss and it's facing the winners of the elimination finals for teams ranked fifth to eighth.

Luxury trades are all part of what coaches are doing and they don't always work out right, but process is what it is about.
Adam Treloar is the No.1 trade target this week. He's in form with scores of 149 and 125 in his last two and has the Fantasy-friendly match-up against the Dees.
Can you trade a 'premium' to him? Roy floats the idea of moving Connor Rozee or Sam Walsh to the ball-magnet.
Some midfielders can be traded, but the biggest name thrown up was Nick Daicos. Fears of a tag could mean an aggressive move could be on the cards.
Warnie is keen to correct his ruck move from three weeks ago. He chose Tim English over Rowan Marshall. That has cost him 75 points in that time. The boys discuss the upside of making that change this round.
Plenty of your questions are answered on the latest episode of the Official AFL Fantasy Podcast as The Traders help you get on the path for premiership glory.
