IT WAS a tough round for many AFL Fantasy coaches with rookies dropping low scores and some trade-in targets performing below expectations … especially for Warnie and Calvin.
Team Calvinator and the Warne Dawgs had disappointing rounds due to their two trade-in targets, Touk Miller and Matt Roberts, both injuring their knees. They are now the two players who will be traded out of their teams for round seven.

Moving Roberts to Alex Cincotta is the obvious move, but who Miller goes to will be a big question coaches have this week.
Marcus Bontempelli is a good candidate after his huge return in round six, while there is a case for picking a player in another position.
The Traders debate the options for trades this week and mull over whether Nick Daicos could be the youngest player ever to receive Fantasy Pig status.
