ROUND 16 AFL FANTASY BETTING TIPS
Jack Steele
Since his return to the Saints side in Round 15, Steele has scored 119 and 99 fantasy points in his two games. He is an absolute tackling machine, averaging 8 tackles a game on the season, the Saints midfielder only needs to rack up 15-20 possessions to have a score somewhere around 90-100. A monster game of 17 tackles and 119 two weeks ago has us believing he should be good to cover his 92.5 line here.
TIP: Jack Steele OVER 92.5 fantasy points - $1.88 at CrownBet
Patrick Dangerfield
The reigning Brownlow medallist has been on an absolute tear of late. His lowest score in the last three games has been 134 and this week he comes up against the Hawks who have been the easiest team to score against all year. It’s a hard group with all of the premium midfielder of the game, including Tom Mitchell, but we like him to top the group.
TIP: Patrick Dangerfield most fantasy points (group) - $2.50 at CrownBet
David Swallow
Swallow seems to have returned to some form after an up and down 2017 so far. Scores of 109 and 107 in the last two games with 27+ possessions in both are promising signs. Although Gary Ablett and Aaron Hall come back into the Suns side this week we still think Swallow’s line is quite modest.
TIP: David Swallow OVER 89.5 fantasy points - $1.88 at CrownBet
Jarryd Lyons
Lyons has been a revelation for the Suns this year. The midfielder averages 100 points per game but in the past six games he has score 113+ on four occasions. While Luke Parker has been his ferocious best at times throughout the year, his ability to accumulate has wavered and we think Lyons has the ability to outscore him this weekend, especially with Parker playing against the Giants.
TIP: Jarryd Lyons to outscore Luke Parker - $1.88 at CrownBet
