MATT Rowell going down on zero was one of the many challenges faced by AFL Fantasy coaches on the weekend.
Not only did Rowell’s shoulder injury leave coaches with a donut, the most popular Fantasy Classic selection’s amazing price increases this season came to a grinding halt. While he added $4k to take his season price rise to $257k, the cash cow of the year will have that zero affecting future price changes.
Roy, Calvin and Warnie discuss the options for a potential Rowell trade which has the added factor of new dual-position players, Victorian clubs moving interstate and more selection headaches than we have ever seen in the game.
