Fantasy Forwards feat Jake Waterman – Ep. 758

PODCAST: We’ve got the 3 locks … but who else?

Let’s face it, we’ve all got Jack Macrae, Bailey Smith and Caleb Daniel in our Fantasy Classic sides. But who sits beside them? The Traders chat through who should be F1, where the value lies and the strategy you should look at. They also discuss the draft rankings for the forwards in a position where the numbers fall away quickly.
