From premiums to bargains to rookies, to all the options in the forward line, the team from Free Kick have dissected it all. 

Check it out below.

Defenders

Defenders are the first empty space to fill in our teams, and they are also the first cab off the rank for a deep dive this AFLW Fantasy pre-season. 

Picking the right defenders can set your team well on the path to success – there are more players capable of really low scores in this line than in any other line, so making sure you can avoid those players is vital.

Midfielders

Adelaide superstar Ebony Marinoff broke nearly every AFLW Fantasy metric after a ground-breaking 2024 season where she averaged 145.

Coming into the 2025 season at a whopping price of $1,878,000 – more than 10 per cent of the AFLW Fantasy salary cap – it begs one important question: how do you afford her?!

Rucks

Picking a ruck can often be the most decisive aspect of your AFLW Fantasy team structure.

With rookie rucks like Eilish O'Dowd and Matilda Scholz matching the elite scorers in previous years, and a top-line ruck averaging 40 points more than the next best last season, the price variance of our options is far, far apart.

Forwards

The forward line is the line for value in 2025.

It's safe to say that the forward line scoring probably left a slightly bitter taste in coaches' mouths in 2024, as we lost so many options to injuries.
