AFL Fantasy commences in round one, meaning Fantasy fans get a bonus look at the eight teams playing across the Opening Round in NSW and Queensland.
Although the general sentiment is that players playing in the first weekend of the season should be mostly avoided as they have an early bye round, there are some players who could be starters due to their value.

Roy, Calvin and Warnie run through which players from the first four games could be a chance to make their teams when round one rolls around.

James Jordon appears to be a lock from the Swans, as well as Matt Roberts, while rookie Demon Caleb Windsor could be a profitable cash cow. Zac Williams is incredible value, but what score would he need to make him a legitimate starter given the round two bye?
The big name from the Suns is premium forward Sam Flanders, who was quiet in the AAMI Community Series. There are a couple of rookie-priced Giants worth keeping an eye on during Saturday night's game in Aaron Cadman, Josh Fahey and Harvey Thomas.
The Traders answer your burning questions, including the fallout from Sean Darcy's injury and if this means Luke Jackson should be the lock as the best forward to start the season.
