Jaxon Binns has come into the senior side at Carlton in recent weeks after a long stint at VFL level, where it had looked like his career might end without fulfilling potential spotted as a junior. His role has been as a straight wingman and, while he knows where to run to receive in that role and has the tank to get there, his main problem has been what he does with the footy on disposal. It's no good being a prolific wingman if you keep turning it over, putting further pressure on a defence which had just rebounded. His fantasy-related job security is reliant on improving his efficiency.

Jaxon Binns is not best 22 for Carlton when the entire list is fit and firing, but he is in the middle of a string of senior games for the side. He is a very outside player, which is not necessarily ia bad thing in a team blessed with a paddock full of bulls on the inside, so his value it measured by what he does with the footy once he receives it. Last week he started very poorly with several poor decisions with ball in hand, but by the end of the match he had managed to get himself involved in a number of successful scoring chains. As a fantasy asset, his tide rises with Carlton's.
