The AFL Fantasy season refuses to slow down, and neither does the injury carnage.

This week, Jesse and Kman work through a chaotic team release packed with fresh injuries, late selection headaches, and major question marks over some of the most important fantasy players. We break down the biggest trade dilemmas, discuss the best options moving forward, and help you avoid the common traps.

As always, Trade Therapy returns as we answer your listener questions and help you navigate the toughest decisions ahead of lockout.

Plus, we have some fun discussing Tom Morris's 2026 Disappointment Ladder and where a few AFL clubs find themselves in 2026.

If you're searching for your best trades this round, we've got you covered.

With the business end of the season approaching, finding the right trade target could be the difference between holding rank and making a serious charge.

This week, we break down the best trade options available right now, discuss the players we're targeting for our own teams, and identify a range of PODs (Points of Difference) that could separate you from the competition. From premium upgrades and underpriced value picks to unique selections flying under the radar, we explore the opportunities that could shape the run home.

With just four rounds remaining, AFL Fantasy becomes less about perfect plans and more about adapting to the unexpected.

In this episode, we explore the challenges of the run home, where injuries, restings, role changes, late withdrawals, and surprise selection decisions can quickly derail even the best-laid strategies. We discuss how to manage uncertainty, when to stick to your plan, and when it's worth pivoting as the season reaches its critical stages. We also identify the key trade targets,.

The trade dilemmas keep coming, and this week there's one question dominating AFL Fantasy conversations: what do we do with Lachie Whitfield?

Beyond the Whitfield discussion, we tackle the biggest trade headaches from across the competition, assess the key upgrade targets, and identify the players on the chopping block as coaches prepare for another crucial round.
