How is everyone looking coming into the BYE rounds? How are you structuring your teams?
Have not even thought about it :-[
Will have a look at how I am tracking later today :-X
Yeah nor have I. It occured to me it could be a problem when I started stacking my backline with Hawthorn players. I don't actually think it matters, your best 18 players count. Works well if you've got 18 non-rookie players playing each of the rounds.
Outlined from the AFL website below.
There will be three Rounds (8, 9 and 10) in 2014 where six AFL teams will have a Bye in each Round.
During these Rounds you select your starting Team of 22 as normal, but only your best 18 Players will score.
Note that if your Captain
continued (not sure what happened there..)

Ok so at the moment i've got a 12/7/11 structure meaning I will have:
-18 playing in Round 8
-23 playing in Round 9
-19 playing in Round 10
But I am sure that will change with trades in the next few weeks.
I am in a similar position. Discounting this weeks trades I've got a 11/7/12.
I should probably start to balance that out. 10/10/10 going into the byes is pretty managable. By round 10 you could be 12/11/7 or something similar.
Lots of sideways movement
12/7/11. Next week's trades will be entirely bye focused.
I'm at 9/10/11 atm before trades this week
One possible planned trade will change that to 10/10/10

Nek minute injuries and/or rookies we have to jump on before they play a game so we get them at original price ::) >:(
After trades this week - 14, 6, 10. :-X
443k left so hopefully upgrade some R8 rookies next week.
After current trades for this week 13/7/10.
Haven't tracked byes for AF as much as the other 2 comps at this stage due to the 2 trades a week thingo, but will get those Rd.8 bye numbers down the next couple of weeks.
Ill be 15 3 12 after this rounds trades of bringing in swan and danger for wines and mitchell (sydney). first week of byes could be challenging with ambrose and pierce not playing atm. Hopefully i dont pick up any injuries.
I'm not travelling that great- with a 12-6-12 bye structure!
Need to trade in rd 9 players!!
after my trades I am 12-7-11 so not too bad I should be able to cover it
If I don't decide to reverse my trades I'm on 10/8/12. Feel like that's alright.
Mine is currently 8/10/12
Very comfy with that and will probably stay that way after trades
12/6/12 now for me... I'm thinking next week I will trade out some non-scoring blokes and maybe even some R8 premiums to avoid donuts this week.
Just a question regarding the byes, if you have say all of your defenders playing (which means two on the bench), are they added towards your best 18? or does it have to be strictly on-field players to count towards your 18?
Yeah, has to be on field.
Ok cheers Tom.
9/9/12 after my Round 8 trades.
Ideally I'd like it to be 11/8/11 in Round 9 and 12/9/9 in Round 10 but that will be tricky.
I am so flowered in round 10.

All my Round 9 bye players are in the backs and mids. That won't end well.
Hoping team announcements don't bring any bad news because I only have 19 on field currently.
Best case scenario in Round 10 is 18. :-\
Best case 21 this week although that relies on Fasolo being a late inclusion and Griffiths getting a recall which is unlikely.
Really stuffed in Round 10 ATM only 15 available players in AF and will not get better with 2 trades.
had a good bye structure at the end but having 20 players and then having KKol, Rocky out to bring me to 18 and then Zorko having a good bye structure hasn't helped me at all
Current strategy is to load all my players on a barge and send them out to sea.

Aaaghh the old "my team really floats my boat" strategy..... ;D
17 playing in AF and DT...after trades.
THE BYES SUCK ARSE
20 in AF and DT. 21 in SC. Hoping for a massive week in all forms.
18 AF :-\
21 VS :)
Looking for a huge week in VS to hopefully give me that boost I need!
16 in AF after trades, flowering Lloyd.
