Zach Guthrie shared best on ground votes with his brother Cameron last year as a late replacement in the 22, fully earning a blue moon icon as it was one right out of the box given his history. He is the definition of a fringe player, but then again so was Cam who plays his 200th game this evening against the Giants. Zach's best game is evidently mopping up poor inside 50s from the opposition, and it was notable that he was able to put up high numbers even with Tom Stewart playing a similar role. He has had a long and unimpressive career so far, so it might just be a flash in the pan.

Zero out Zuthrie
After 17 AFL games across three years including a standalone late inclusion in round 7, Zach Guthrie has finally been promoted to the senior list. Usually touted as a defender, Guthrie showed versatility across his 14 VFL matches, playing in attack, on the wing and at half-forward. The 21-year-old will need luck on his side if he aims to secure a senior role, with teammates' injuries the only imaginable path to repeated games. If there's going to be one Guthrie in your squad, it's not this one. Pass.
Zuthrie lacks zazz
As the younger brother of Cameron Guthrie, Zach Guthrie is yet to make the same impact. The half back flanker’s best game was a 22-possession display in round 1, however he failed to back that up and was dropped after round 4. In and out of the team after that, Guthrie managed to add another seven matches to his career total. Guthrie might play a handful of games in the senior side if spots open up due to injury, but that’s no reason to draft him. The young defender has not shown fantasy coaches enough indication that he’ll be able to produce any decent scores, and his spot in the squad isn’t concrete by any means. Avoid.
Guthrie made of wood
He looks like he should still be playing under 15s, but Zach Guthrie suited up for most senior games in the second half of 2017, starting on a HFF then in defence after he was a late replacement for Andrew Mackie in round 17. He did not breech 15 disposals in a game. If Guthrie is to be the replacement for the now-retired Mackie, he needs to get much more footy. Apart from the fact that his first-year statistical base is so unimpressive, he is the reedy type who tends to suffer from second-year blues after the coaches flog him in preseason. Ignore.
