Port Adelaide
Scott Lycett remains in a strong position on Saturday night despite the inclusion of Stefan Martin for the Bulldogs, Lycett should be able to control the ruck contest & find enough ball in general play to keep the fantasy scores ticking over.
Lycett has scored 100pts or more in 21.1% of games this season, the match-up against the Bulldogs should be suitable enough for him to be in a position to be the no.1 scoring ruck on Saturday night.
Expect moderate to strong ownership.
Western Bulldogs
Josh Dunkley could see a decent spike in midfield usage on Saturday night if the Bulldogs move Marcus Bontempelli into more of a forward role, Bontempelli injured his knee late in the game against Brisbane last week.
Dunkley averaged 115.5pts from his opening 6 games of the season, this included solid usage through the midfield.
His role since returning from injury has been a mix of forward & midfield usage.
Ownership could be strong, he should be highly considered in a Bulldogs stack build.

Value
The salary for Dan Houston remains quite viable again on Saturday night, he has decent ceiling potential in favourable scoring conditions.
After playing through the midfield earlier this season, he has now settled into a half-back role.
If Port Adelaide play a ball control type game against the Bulldogs, expect Houston to see plenty of opportunities.
Expect strong ownership.
