    The rookie episode should have been named the WC show. Hardly heard boo on all the other teams and it was hard to listen to. But it’s good to see some of the best rookies are totally going under the radar.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Heeney, Merrett, Bont or Holmes? | TRADE THERAPY
Q: John asks about the best buy options given Rankin's injury and the run home: who should be prioritized?
Prioritize fixing the dead rookies and strengthening the bench with players like Banfield and Isen, while considering Holmes as a key upgrade; Rankin should be traded out if injury updates suggest longer absence.
Heeney, Merrett, Bont or Holmes? | TRADE THERAPY
Q: Daniel asks, who averages more from this point forward, Heeney or Merrett?
Heeney is favored due to a steadier run and ability to push through a tag, though Merrett offers a higher ceiling; overall, Heeney is the safer and more consistent pick.
Round 24 best 22 | Who will you trade?
Q: Dave asked for a recommendation between Track to Manor and Colby Tahini given tough matchups.
The hosts lean toward Tahini for upside in a potentially high-scoring week, acknowledging Manor's consistency but highlighting Tahini's upside against Adelaide and the value in chasing a big scoring week.
Ruck archetypes that could shape AFL Fantasy in 2026 | with special guest Vams @fantasynut_afl
Q: How does the data divide fantasy scoring into stoppage vs transition, and what does that imply for which rucks to target?
Scoring splits into stoppage-based points (ball ups, center bounces, throw-ins) and transition points (turnovers, kick-ins). If stoppages fall, the best bets are rucks who can build a strong transition scoring profile to offset losses, meaning archetypes with high transition potential may outperform traditional stoppage specialists.
Ruck archetypes that could shape AFL Fantasy in 2026 | with special guest Vams @fantasynut_afl
Q: What are the main 2026 rule changes impacting rucks, and what was your initial reaction to them?
The center bounce is replaced with center ball up, the last touch rule changes scoring between arcs, and nominations for rucks are removed to speed up play. My initial thought was stoppages would drop, which should reduce ruck scores overall, but there's a big caveat: teams may compensate via increased transition scoring, so the impact isn't straightforward and varies by player archetype.
