TRADITIONALLY, Fantasy Classic coaches have worked towards a ‘completed’ team for the Fantasy finals, but the definition of completed is rather loose.
A role change for Tim Taranto (MID, $734,000) saw him at just two centre bounce attendances in each of the last two weeks. His forward role has impacted his Fantasy output with scores of 67 and 51 in the last two weeks.
Should coaches look to offload him?
The Traders chat about whether moving on underperformers with a decent price next to their name should be a priority as the semi-finals loom. Other disappointing midfielders such as Jack Macrae (MID, $785,000) and Lachie Neale (MID, $696,000) are also up for trade discussion ahead of the knockout games this weekend.
