GRAND FINAL WEEK
This week is the final week of AFL Fantasy, and for some super Fantasy coaches out there, it’s Grand Final time.
So, you’ve taken a walk through the streets of Melbourne and are bracing yourself for the huge weekend ahead. However, the main question coming through this week, is what to do with the injured Dane Swan (FWD/MID, $613,000) who is owned by over 90,000 coaches.
Here are my top options, who are set to be huge this weekend.
Tom Rockliff (MID, $623,000) is the easiest option for this week after he is coming off scores of 159, 140 and 143 in his last three games. He averages 118 against the Bulldogs in his last three and loves playing at the Gabba where he averaged 142 last year. Now is the time to get him in if you don’t already own him.
Dan Hannebery (MID, $580,000) has averaged 129 at the SCG this year and plays the Suns this week, a team he scored 133 against this year. Tom Mitchell (FWD/MID, $529,000) is clearly the best forward option for Swan, especially after he has scored 142 and 138 in his last two games and even posted 131 on the Suns in round 10 earlier this year.
ADELAIDE’S 2015 FANTASY MVP
Patrick Dangerfield (MID, $566,000) has had an amazing year averaging 108, his best Fantasy season in his career. His top score was 147 in Round 9 against Fremantle and he only dropped under 90pts on four occasions.
RUNNER-UP MVP
Tom Lynch (FWD, $492,000) has had an outstanding year, increasing his value by a remarkable $165,000. He increased his average by 17pts from 2014 and is finishing year in style averaging 112 in his last three.
FANTASY ROOKIE OF THE YEAR
Cam Ellis-Yolmen (MID, $329,000) got everyone’s Fantasy season off to a flying start playing the first five games of the year averaging 84. Although we haven’t seen Ellis-Yolmen since Round 15, he has added $209,000 to his starting price.

2016 WATCH LIST
Brad Crouch will start 2016 with a discounted price after not playing a game this year. He has averaged 90+ in his first two seasons with the Crows and will be priced around an average of 80 next year. Bargain!
WHAT’S COMING UP
This week the Crows play Geelong on Saturday afternoon. Last week, Collingwood scored 9x100+ scores against the Cats and I’m tipping that the points will be flowing at the Cattery this weekend.
