AFL FANTASY TAKE
Preuss averaged 50.0pts from 3 games at the Demons in 2020, he averaged 62.5pts as solo ruck in 2 games.
The Giants are in need of a No.1 ruck & Preuss will slot into that role in 2021, this should provide a significant season long fantasy opportunity.
Preuss should have a good points base with his ability to dominate hit outs with his power & strength, if he can find a way to integrate well with the Giants midfield then an increase in disposal numbers is possible.
Preuss is a consideration for AFL Fantasy classic, his ADP will be higher than expected in 10 team standard draft leagues.
