Last but not least we have the forwards. Most of these should have been on every fantasy coaches radar, but pick them up if you havent already got them.
· Shaun Higgins, WB, $223,400 (BE -81) 50% of the competition have Higgins, but if you are one of the other half who doesn’t make him your number 1 priority, as he is performing like someone priced twice as much.
· Hayden Skipworth, Essendon, $219,700 (BE -78) Another popular pick, but if you don’t have him get him now before his price skyrockets.
· Taylor Walker, Adelaide, $94,200 (BE -23) Like the other 2, he’s popular. But strongly consider him if you don’t have him yet, as his scores should improve now Hentschel is out.
· Steve Johnson, Geelong, $471,800 (BE 7) Surprisingly, he’s my first Cat. But Stevie J is playing brilliantly in the midfield and kicking crucial goals, which makes him a must have. For a similar price, also look at Collingwood’s Leon Davis ($513,300, BE 43)
· Eddie Betts, Carlton, $363,100 (BE -7) The little genius is doing as well as his team, in no small part to him. Expect his average to level out below his current 105, but he’s still a good pickup.
· Nathan Krakouer, PA, $217,800 (BE -36) The role change to half back is doing wonders for Krakouer, who’s ball use makes him an excellent SuperCoach option, much like Shannon Hurn and Linday Gilbee.
Also have a look at:
Mark Le Cras, West Coast, $320,100, BE -14, Average 96
Aaron Davey, Melbourne $425,300 BE -4, Average 121
Mitchell Brown ,West Coast, $94,200 BE -32, Average 42’

Knightys top picks:

If you don’t already have Skipworth and Higgins, get them. If not, Stevie Johnson should be highly considered, while Krakouer is a good replacement for Hentschel.

So that’s the bargains of the week. As you can see, there are plenty of options this week, depending on exactly what your team needs. Don’t forget to look out next week for players like Zaharakis, Beams, Moss, Rance, Harbrow and Daniher to see how they go, as their prices will start moving next week, giving you extra time to see if you need them.
