AFL Fantasy Tips

AFL Super Sunday arrives and so does a full fantasy guide covering the three scheduled games, with the Tigers set to butt heads with Fremantle at the MCG, Marvel playing host to the Dogs vs Hawks before action is rounded out with the Q-Clash up North.

Draftstars have been kind enough to cover us with a whopping $60,000 main contest over the fixtured Sunday games, along with a trio of supplementary options that you may take a liking to for the final day of Round 6 action.

AFL $60,000+ Sunday 

AFL $5,000+ Sunday High Roller

AFL $3,000+ Sunday $2 Mini

AFL $2,000+ Sunday Fiver

The AFL Star contest is back for 2024 and Draftstars are offering the biggest prize pool in Australian DFS history with a $1 million guaranteed final with $250,000 top prize! There are qualifiers and satellites running for every AFL match, while there will also be a sprinkling of qualifiers across other sports such as NRL and NBA.

Meanwhile the 1000 AFL Target contests are set to return to Draftstars for the first time since 2018. Enter the contest and hit the 1000-point barrier with your team to scoop the jackpot!

Where to Attack

Turn your attention to one of the highest scoring teams on paper so far this season in the Gold Coast Suns, who match up well against Essendon. Short and sharp wrap-up of where to attack during the final day of Round 8 action.

Game Script – Zero in on the fantasy pigs wearing yellow and red.

 

Value Play

Jake Rogers ($6,000) looms as a potential steal at the price off the back of a sound debut. Created a number of opportunities for his teammates by playing a selfless role, will have the confidence to take the onus upon himself now.

 

Mid-Priced Plays

Sam Darcy ($10,820) continues to elevate his game going from strength to strength. His versatility separates him from other dual position players, hopefully Luke Beveridge utilises that by playing him in a high scoring position.

Sam Clohesy ($10, 270) is following a similar path to Will Graham, as the pair have taken everything in their stride since being welcomed into the Suns side. Both are no stranger to these fantasy lineups and will look to post another big total.

 

Premium Plays

Bailey Dale ($14,800) has put up video game numbers in consecutive outings. Hoping the role change of Ed Richards stays despite Tom Liberatore being announced fit to return to the engine room. Will still likely score well regardless.

Noah Anderson ($16,100) after a slow start to the year is rapidly finding his feet. Much of the focus and attention has been on his partner in crime Matt Rowell, which in turn has allowed him to flourish in recent weeks.

Eastern Suburbs boy, Trent Callen, has grown up like many living and breathing sport. Cricket in the summer, and footy in the Winter was the ideology he became accustomed too.

Work currently has been no different, with seasonal gigs at both Cricket Australia and at AFL House, funny how things pan out.

Dating back generations, Trent's family has been as one eyed Carlton as you can imagine, and that was a path he was happy to head down. Bring on this year’s rollercoaster ride for the Blues!
