Early News: A fresh batch of Dual Position Players (DPPs) dropped last week, so if you haven’t checked them out yet it’s worth a look here. The main Fantasy-relevant additions in my opinion are Angus Anderson (FWD), Dyson Sharp (FWD), Matt Reid (MID), Tanner Bruhn (DEF), Brad Hill (TPP), and Paddy Cross (MID). The big early news is that Lachie Whitfield has been confirmed out under HIA protocols. Reports are that he has recovered well, so this appears to be the mandatory one-week stand-down and he should be right to return next week. Many coaches may now be considering Hugo Hall-Kahan as cover, with indications he will come into the Giants side this week. We also have another downgrade option confirmed, with Ollie Greeves (MID $230k) set to make his AFL debut for Hawthorn. Test players this week:Wayne Milera, Karl Amon, Jack Impey, and Archie Roberts. Brisbane are also expected to regain Hugh McCluggage and Zorko. Jaxon Artemis is also a chance to come into the Bombers side after overcoming his injury. Hayden Young failed his fitness test and has been ruled out of tonight’s match. George Wardlaw has suffered another injury and is expected to miss at least a month, opening up North Melbourne’s midfield. Sadly, Sam Ross has suffered another concussion after previously dealing with concussion issues. Jack Sinclair has officially been ruled out for the season, while Connor Budarick is also out injured.
OLLIE OLLIEEEEEE
Ollie Greeves will be making his debut Saturday night at the MCG ??
Notes: A shower or two is forecast for tonight in Perth, so there could be some slippery conditions. The main change is Sean Darcy out managed for Mason Cox, which might make Luke Jackson owners feel a bit safer with shared ruck duties. Hayden Young is also out injured again, while Jaeger O’Meara returns for Fremantle. For Sydney, Tom Papley is back, with Corey Warner omitted.
