AFL DFS Top Plays Round 5 Lions v Magpies
BRISBANE
Lachie Neale has averaged 92.0pts from his last 2 games, this included 98pts last week in which he was targeted by Geelong.
The midfield usage has been extremely strong for Neale this season, he has been used at a team high 84.2% of centre bounces.
He is currently ranked 8th in the AFL averaging 32.3 disposals per game.
It’s unlikely he is the subject of heavy attention from Collingwood on Thursday night, expect a solid scoring output.
Ownership could be moderate to strong.
COLLINGWOOD
Collingwood enters the game against Brisbane with Brodie Grundy, Mason Cox and Darcy Cameron, Grundy is still expected to be used at a high rate at centre bounces and stoppages.
He is ranked 4th in the AFL averaging 30.8 hit outs per game, he’s likely the pick of the pure ruck options on Thursday night.
Grundy is averaging 100.3pts from 4 games this season, this includes a season high 124pts last week against West Coast.
Ownership could be strong.

VALUE
With little value options likely available on Thursday night Tom Wilson can provide a decent amount of salary relief.
He recorded 16 disposals and 5 marks last week finishing with 69pts, he mostly played across half-forward but also drifted up the ground assisting in outside ball movement.
The ceiling may be limited for Wilson which needs to be a consideration, he also impacts a defensive heavy roster build.
