Episode guide

0:55 – Zach Merrett is a safe premium midfield pick.

3:00 – While he had a dominant season, Darcy Parish could be a trap but Roy bullish on him.

6:00 – If Jake Stringer had a midfield role, there is no doubt he goes 90+.

7:45 – It was back-to-the-future for Dyson Heppell with his new DEF role.

9:15 – Could we see Andrew McGrath add defender status?

10:20 – Why did Jordan Ridley start the year on fire but then drop off?

13:00 – Jye Caldwell is value, even without his FWD status.

15:30 – Ben Hobbs and Garrett McDonagh are worth keeping an eye on as bargain basement options.
