Where to Attack
Turn your attention to the GWS game with the travelling side expected to put West Coast to the sword. The Giants meet a lesser opposition, which is expected to be all one-way traffic from the outset.
Game Script – GWS forwards licking their lips over the matchup
Value Plays
Ben King ($6,780) presents as a value play at disrespectful price that sees him slot in as the first Draftstars selection. Can bounce back after being well held last outing in conditions that didn’t suit key forwards.
Mid-Priced Plays
Jeremy Finlayson ($9,970) looms as a no brainer selection considering the back six troubles facing Richmond at the current point in time. Just need him to convert his opportunities when they present themselves.
Premium Plays
Elliott Yeo ($13,400) is seemingly back near his best after a horrid run with injury left him sidelined. Reassumed his midfield role and can act as a leader to support the youth that surround him at his feet.
Dan Houston ($15,110) is at the top of his game and made scoring a habit in recent years. Playing that sweeping position off half back with a license to create forward of the footy is a role that fits him like a glove.
Fade
Dustin Martin ($13,750) not necessarily a full fade maybe just a half one if we’re talking haircut terms. Happy for him to prove me wrong but just think at the price he lacks the consistency you’d be hoping for.
