The lads continue with their player position previews in AFL Fantasy this week with the forward line. So far in 2025 there has been a general consensus that our forward lines will be vanilla, with Smith, Daniel, Macrae and Phillipou all having greater than 50% ownership so early in the pre-season. Where there has been discussion is around structure and whether or not we are paying up and trying to find value in an F1, or whether we are looking to find some other value picks or rookies.On this episode, Holmesy is joined by Harmey, Lewy and the Pod Father himself Warnie from The Traders as they discuss all things forwards. The 4 popular players are discussed as well as a stack of others that were requested by the listeners. As well as players, they have a general strategy discussion about structure and how things are looking moving into 2025. Enjoy!Like this episode?

With what seems like excess cash to spend this year, coaches are finding that they are able to spend up big in the ruck line if they wish.

All this strategy and more is covered in this episode!In this episode, Two-time top 10 finisher Harmey and friend of the podcast Jackson Davey or JD as he is better known in the fantasy community talk all things rucks!

This episode kicks off the player positions with the big dogs, the MIDFIELDERS. Previously, the midfielders have been the most important players, putting up the scores that were often relied upon for coaches as their captain and vice captains. However, last season saw a drop in midfielder scores, with only one player scoring above 110. An outlier, or a change in the way the AFL is being played? Who knows! But what we do know, because of this many of our midfield premiums seem to present upside and valueOn this episode, two-time top 10 finisher Harmey and special guest Steve Fizz from The Draft Doctors join Holmesy as they discuss a whole bunch of midfield premiums. Each co-host brings three premiums up for discussion, before they answer a stack of listener requests. With 2025 seeming as if we have cash to spend up in the midfield, the decisions on who to start could be crucial in getting off to a flier in AFL Fantasy.
