<p>Things get tougher from here with those that have planned well set to be rewarded. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Bye strategy – week three</strong></h2>



<ul><li>Keep on upgrading (or move on Sicily …) to players who have had their bye &#8211; Neale, Brayshaw, Sinclair, Stewart, Parker, Warner, Anderson or Rowell.</li><li>If you’re still short on players, move some rookies in that have also had their bye – Melican or a debutant (slim pickings this week …).</li><li>The other option is to sideways an underperforming premium to an option above – Coniglio, T. Green, Ziebell and Sheezel could be an option if you think they will continue to fade in the back half of the season and have a few trades up your sleeve.</li><li>Count your trades out for the remaining bye rounds and double-check for round 15.</li><li>Hope your premiums aren’t the next tribunal victim of the dangerous tackle.</li></ul>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How’s everyone else looking &#8211; the top 1,000:</strong></h2>



<p>Below we can see the average top 1,000 structure as of round 13 and how they are set up for the byes.</p>



<ul><li>For round 14, the average top team will be fielding about 20 players and have about 5 premiums off on bye. This might improve with trades but should be what you are aiming to match or exceed.</li><li>Round 15 remains the toughest week but has gotten slightly stronger compared to last week (1 less premium out on average). Teams will have an average of 11-12 premiums plus whatever rookies can be scraped together. If you can get ahead of this, you are doing well.</li><li>Non-playing rookies are down again from an average of just under 5 to fewer than 4, with S. Mitchell returning and coaches moving out their dead wood.</li><li>Most of the top coaches have traded Ashcroft out (45% general ownership vs. 15%) but if you still have him, I would hold until the byes are over despite an elevated breakeven.</li><li>The key points of difference the top coaches have on the rest of the completion are Merrett (20% vs. 85%), Laird (32% vs. 91%) and Stewart (25% vs. 90%). These could hurt non-owners down the final stretch of the season if their form continues so could be good players to get in.</li></ul>
