AFL Round 20 Sunday DFS: Roo-naissance and Lions Roar in Fantasy Goldmine
Sunday presents a high-octane double-header to round out AFL Round 20, kicking off with Brisbane hosting Port Adelaide at the Gabba before North Melbourne clash with St Kilda under the Marvel Stadium roof. With high-scoring upside in both fixtures, our AI engine has identified some massive structural plays— headlined by a heavy reliance on North Melbourne's rejuvenated engine room and Brisbane's lethal ball-movers.
Here is how to structure your daily fantasy lineups for a monster Sunday.
The Core Slate Movers
- Luke Davies-Uniacke (North Melbourne, MID): The absolute cornerstone of the slate. LDU appears in 10/10 AI lineups with a slate-crushing 104.7 point projection. Expect him to feast on clearances under the roof and drive your scores sky-high.
- Colby McKercher (North Melbourne, FWD): A fantasy cheat code taking advantage of dual-position eligibility. Named as a forward but racking up cheap kicks out of half-back, McKercher (86.8 projected) locked down 10/10 optimal builds.
- Tom De Koning (St Kilda, RUC): Featured in 100% of optimal lineups, TDK offers elite around-the-ground work rate and hitout consistency. A projection of 69.8 points makes him the go-to solo ruck anchor.
- Jaspa Fletcher (Brisbane Lions, DEF): Selected in 9/10 lineups, Fletcher brings brilliant transition play at the Gabba. His uncontested mark-and-kick game gives him an ultra-safe floor with an 80.5 point projection.
- Jy Simpkin (North Melbourne, MID): Landing in 7/10 lineups, Simpkin (92.5 projected) provides ideal stacking capability alongside LDU to completely dominate the contested footy points.
- Dylan Stephens (North Melbourne, MID): Another 10/10 core piece, Stephens is projected for 77.0 points and offers vital outside run to round out your mid-tier build.
Position-by-Position Quick Tips
- RUC: Lock in Tom De Koning—the AI builds exclusively around his top-tier tap work and field coverage.
- DEF: Jaspa Fletcher is your high-frequency staple, but don't sleep on Luke Parker (104.6 projected) for pure point-scoring power.
- MID: Build around Luke Davies-Uniacke and Jy Simpkin, or pivot to Lachie Neale (117.6 projected ceiling) if you want pure Brisbane dominance.
- FWD: Colby McKercher is non-negotiable, while Zac Bailey (100.0 projected) offers dynamic goal-kicking upside at the Gabba.
