Comben is likely a pass in AFL Fantasy classic to begin the season with, although his DPP flexibility does provide a non-scoring angle for Ruck cover from another forward/ruck player with a longer term view to having him debut at some stage this season.
Comben is a pass in 10 team standard draft leagues.
