Ablett absent: Gary Ablett jnr injured
- Updated: April 30, 2010
The highest scoring player in fantasy football has been withdrawn from Round 6 due to hamstring tightness.
Gary Ablett jnr has been omitted from Geelong’s side to take on Richmond, replaced in the squad of 25 by Nathan Djerrkura. I don’t need to tell you all how big that news is, especially in Supercoach where he’s the lock in captain for the majority of teams.
On the bright side, Mitchell Duncan is more likely to survive the cut after this development.
Let me know in the comments who your replacement captain will be, if you have him. Is it Jimmy Bartel, who won’t have Ablett or Joel Corey in support for the first time in yonks? Do you have Dane Swan as well, or is your #2 midfielder a less-than-reliable conveyance like Joel Selwood or Bryce Gibbs? Would you venture beyond the midfielders into the forwards, even after the Nick Riewoldt disaster of a couple of rounds ago? How about Corey Enright or Brendon Goddard? Or even Michael Barlow in the derby? 😮

FF Projections & optimiser
In a first for Australian fantasy, FanFooty is launching a new Projections tool for not only creating your own weekly fantasy point predictions based on historical stats and consensus rankings, but a function to auto-generate an optimised “perfect” lineup for use in weekly and daily fantasy sports!
These are the sort of tools that pros use in American DFS to construct their lineups, and with the rise of DFS in Australia in 2016 FanFooty Projections will become indispensible to the hardcore and the casual fantasy coach! (Note: this feature will become part of this year’s FF Premium product later this year, but for now it’s free.)
