Fremantle loved his run-and-carry off half-back during his latest brief stint in the seniors, and he’s certainly earned the opportunity after averaging 90 across his last 7 WAFL games.
FIFA 18 DRAFT CRACK
He’s been banging the door down in the SANFL with scores of 100, 115 and 105 on the trot, so don’t sleep on the son-of-a-gun.Īn alternative in the same real estate is Corey Wagner ($6,630 DEF), who gets another crack with Hayden Young ruled out due to injury. If that’s the case, pair him up with fellow backline inclusion Jase Burgoyne ($7,080 DEF) for some correlation goodness. Port will be very keen to jump-start his form in his return to the AFL side, a feat which is made simpler by the fast deck at Marvel that allows defenders to rack up a few extra easy marks.
I flagged the swathe of changes for the Power above, one of which was resurrecting their Captain Tom Jonas ($6,000 DEF) from his SANFL purgatory. He’s loved playing the Suns in the past, posting a low score of 111 in his past four clashes against them.
While the heavy minutes probably won’t repeat in Round 18, hopefully it sparked some confidence in the St Kilda skipper.
FIFA 18 DRAFT FULL
It’s about the time of the year where the redemption arc is in full force for some players, and Jack Steele ($14,640 MID) made an early start on his with a huge 146 last week in season-high TOG – largely due to that early injury spree that crippled the Saints.
JOM could be looking at season-high KPIs, which is usually a recipe for success – his two games with more than 70% CBA share this year have resulted in season-high fantasy scores of 103 and 102. This is the first time this year that the Dockers have been without one of the Andrew Brayshaw/Caleb Serong duo, and they also don’t have the break-glass-in-case-of-emergency option of Nat Fyfe sitting up forward. Of course, the safe bet is veteran Jaeger O’Meara ($12,340 MID). The sneakier play is James Aish ($10,300 MID), who could see a repeat of the inside midfield role he enjoyed earlier in the season with 75% CBA action against the Eagles – a role that resulted in a season-high score of 106. Youngsters Neil Erasmus ($9,490 MID) and Matthew Johnson ($9,910 MID) are both in play again as midfielders, although consistency hasn’t been their strong suit lately. I’m expecting something more substantial than last week’s middling 60 up on the Gold Coast.Īs I mentioned above, the Dockers are without Caleb Serong and such a significant absence creates ripples of fantasy value. The in-game hamstring injury to Seb Ross last week probably gave him a significant inside role a bit sooner than I expected, but the Teamsheets suggest he’ll be involved at the CBAs (54% last week) once again. His main competitor in the same price-range is Zak Jones ($9,610 MID), whose time-on-ground should grow as he builds match fitness. The elite runner has been averaging 24 touches and 87 fantasy points over the last month of VFL action, so I’m interested to see whether he can transfer that form over at this modest salary. Gold Coast caretaker coach Steven King hasn’t wasted any time stamping his mark on the Suns senior team, axing Brayden Fiorini in favour of young gun Elijah Hollands ($8,920 MID) out on the wing. Coach Justin Longmuir floated the concept of Jackson playing as a big-bodied midfielder when Nat Fyfe went down a couple of weeks ago, and it looks like the one-week suspension for Caleb Serong has brought those words to life. One thing I noticed with Fremantle’s Teamsheets was the addition of tall forward Sam Sturt, which hints at a potential midfield role for Luke Jackson ($12,080 RUC/FWD). This is a perfect example of when you might want to consider anti-correlation while splitting your exposures. I can make an argument either way given that Frampton held a 76/24 edge at the ruck contests the last time the Pies rolled out this combo, but Mason Cox went on to smack out a monstrous 129 as the solo ruckman the very next week following a Frampton injury. The most interesting subplot of this slate is the Collingwood rucking situation, with both Billy Frampton ($8,450 FWD) and Mason Cox ($8,500 RUC/FWD) in the frame to get the #1 role with Darcy Cameron injured.
I’d rather nudge up the list slightly to someone like Jackson Mead ($6,340 MID/FWD), who has a rare chance to do some damage with Port pulling the trigger on 7 changes. He’s a speedy small forward averaging just 65 in the VFL, and I suspect he’ll scale strongly with goals kicked. St Kilda has given us some fresh meat in the form of Jack Peris ($6,000 FWD), but I’m happy to let his one slide through to the keeper on a 5-game slate.
