St Kilda
Without Paddy Ryder splitting time in the Ruck at the Saints Rowan Marhall STK (DK $6,900, DS $13,160) has averaged 94.0pts from his last 2 games, the match up against Sean Darcy is quite favourable on Saturday.
Marshall has averaged 17.0 Disposals &23.5 Hit Outs from his last 2 games, his ability to stay involved in general play keeps the fantasy points ticking over.
The spot for Marshall on Saturday is one of the better options at Ruck, it would be a surprise if he didn’t exceed value.
West Coast
Andrew Gaff WCÂ (DK $8,000, DS $16,220) was relatively quiet last week scoring just 66pts after being shadowed for Ryan Clark early on, the match up against Adelaide could be the perfect bounce back spot.
The Crows have a league worst -54.2 disposal differential this season, they also rank last in contested possessions at 108.0 per game. If this game is largely uncontested then Gaff is in play to hit a ceiling game with his uncontested marks that elevate his scoring.
Keep in mind Ben Keays has been shadowing opposition players for Adelaide this season, but an early blowout may see any attention withdrawn that is consistent with other games.

Value
Andrew McPherson ADE (DK $2,500, DS $5,000) will make his AFL debut on Saturday for Adelaide, he was selected at pick 40 in the 2017 AFL Draft.
McPherson has had his injury issues early on in his career but now fully fit finally gets his opportunity, he can play as a rebounding half back type.
The low salary is appealing enough for McPherson, if he can settle quickly the scoring should tick over enough to exceed value.
