A shift from outside midfield to a more permanent right forward pocket position meant Matthew Wright's fantasy numbers dipped in 2017, shaving four disposals per game but not adding much in the way of increased scoreboard production in an attack starved of supply. His fantasy scores dropped below the forward baseline in one out of three games, usually when he couldn't manage to kick a goal. Some fantasy coaches might draft Wright on memory, though this would be a mistake as his role has changed. You don't want many players in your side whose fantasy score is based on bags of goals or kick-to-kick behind the play, as that can be too variable. He's the sort of player who will disappoint you one week, get benched, score nicely then disappoint you when you plug him back in. Avoid those types if you can.
