Roy thought outside the square and halfway through the first quarter, he was stoked with his punt on Tristan Xerri as his second ruck. Unfortunately, a cruel ankle injury saw him subbed out and Roy was scrambling.

He had to think ahead to next week so he decided to take in close to $500,000 in order to go back to Tim English, his preferred ruck.

The coach of destROY also lost Josh Kelly to concussion, making both of this week's trades forced ones.

Plenty of coaches will have a few fix-up moves to make this week and The Traders chat through all the options on the Official AFL Fantasy Podcast.
