BRISBANE
AFLRATINGS NEWS: GM of Football Danny Daly says Will Ashcroft will play around 70% TOG.
AFLRATINGS NEWS: Senior coach Chris Fagan says they’ll consider tagging Clayton Oliver with Jarrod Berry.Â
Late Changes: –
Sub: Fletcher
(Sub last game: Shadeau Brain)
Key players missing: Noah Answerth, Lincoln McCarthy, Keidean Coleman, Darcy Grdiner, Tom Doedee, Jack Payne.
Injury List: Brisbane
AFLRATINGS Fantasy Notes: The Lions have averaged 130.7pts from their last 3 games (Season Ave: 94.0), they are averaging 101.3 uncontested marks per game this season (Rank 1). Darragh Joyce replaces Jack Payne as a key defender this week while Will Ashcroft makes his return from an ACL injury. Senior coach Chris Fagan stated this week that Ashcroft won’t have a minutes restriction, first game returning from an ACL Ashcroft certainly could be limited. Jarrod Berry is a decent chance to be sent to Clayton Oliver through the midfield. Hugh McCluggage has been used at 40.1% of team centre bounces (last 5 games) since Berry has moved more into an inside mid role.Â
MELBOURNE
AFLRATINGS NEWS: Assistant coach Troy Chaplin they’re expecting Jarrod Berry to tag Clayton Oliver.Â
AFLRATINGS NEWS: Assistant coach Troy Chaplin says Andy Moniz-Wakefield will play in defence.Â
AFLRATINGS NEWS: GM of AFL Performance Alan Richardson confirms Jake Bowey will be a late withdrawal. Kynan Brown to replace Bowey.Â
AFLRATINGS NEWS: Senior coach Simon Goodwin says Taj Woewodin will play in defence.Â
Late Changes: Out: Bowey In: K.Brown
Sub: K.Brown
(Sub last game: Kynan Brown)
Key players missing: Christian Salem, Blake Howes, Christian Petracca, Ben Brown, Charlie Sprago, Lachie Hunter.
Injury List: Melbourne
AFLRATINGS Fantasy Notes: No Christian Salem for the Demons this week, Trent Rivers was used at 80.0% of team centre bounces last week. It is possible Rivers returns to a half-back role without Salem, Tom Sparrow could benefit or it is possible Alex Neal-Bullen may be used in a tag role on a Lachie Neale type which would consume a fair amount of centre bounces. Kysaiah Pickett could also see decent centre bounce usage with centre clearances so vital at the Gabba. Jake Lever returns from injury this week. The Demons are conceding 76.5pts per game this season (Rank 3), they are conceding 92.4 uncontested marks this season (Rank 16).Â
