DETAILS:

  • $75k kitty on Saturday and $60k for Sunday

Good luck and please, gamble responsibly.

Jy Farrar (FWD, $6,840)

Saturday v Sydney

Mature aged = TICK… He’s 24
Taking easy marks = TICK… Took 8 last week
Scores well = TICK… 86pts last week

Farrar was super-impressive in his second game for his career and looked at home scoring 86. He’s cheap, but this match-up against the Swans is much harder… However, at his price you can’t really go wrong. Expect 60 to 75 points from the big man.

Clayton Oliver (MID, $15,510)

Saturday v Richmond

I’m not sure how unique Oliver will be here, but he is coming off back to back 120+ scores and will not cop a tag against the mighty Tigers.

He has scored 95, 103 and 106 is his most recent games against the Tigers but I’m tipping he will be much bigger than that. Jack Steele (115) was great last week against them and Oliver should be as well.

Finlay Macrae (MID/FWD, $6,070)

Sunday Vs Essendon

The half-brother of the mighty Jack – Finlay showed his ball-magnet tendencies last week when he found the ball 12 times in the final quarter for 32pts.

The role is there. He will get plenty of MID time for the Pies and therefore he should be finding plenty of the pill once again.

At this price, it’s a no brainer. Yes… many will pick him but with this one, you might as well follow the crowd with, and let’s face it… they are all on the right track with this future star.

Tom Phillips (MID/FWD, $11,190)

Sunday v Adelaide

A trap… or a stroke on genius?

We believe the bigger ground at Utas will suit the struggling MID/Wingman who has been less than impressive coming off a tiny 56 last week.

The Fantasy community are turning their back on Phillips, despite averaging 77 this year. Plenty of the Docker midfielders cashed in with good scores last week against the Crows and we have our fingers firmly crossed that Phillips can as well.

Mason Redman (DEF, $9,090)

Sunday v Collingwood

Warnie has reassured us that Mason Redman will be the man to replace the vacant role left by Jordan Ridley. With Collingwood giving up the most points to defenders this year, the Warne-Dawg might be on to something here.

Redman is coming off 75 but this match up is more juicier than ever before.

Tom Mitchell (MID, $15,930)

Sunday v Adelaide

We all should know by now that Pig Park (Utas Stadium – Launceston) is one of the highest scoring Fantasy grounds in Australia. Its wider boundaries and extra space enable players to find more room for more easy ball.

Tom Mitchell has loved playing in Launceston, ever since he put his hoof on Tassie soil. From his eight games there, he has averaged 131.

On Sunday he meets the Crows, a team that is slowly starting to slide. Mitchell has hit 100+ in his last four games against the Crows and in this game on ANZAC Day, he could produce something very special. A score of 140+ is certainly on the cards.

REMINDER: Teams for Saturday are announced tonight with Sunday games being announced on Saturday night. Be sure to check final teams before entering your team to play.

T&Cs Apply. 18+ Gamble Responsibly
