Freo Frenzy in the West: DraftStars Masterclass for Dockers vs Blues

The Anzac Day football feast heads west this Saturday night as Fremantle hosts Carlton in a blockbuster clash at Perth Stadium. Expect a fierce, highly-contested battle, but with the Dockers looking to dictate terms and run the Blues ragged on their home deck, our AI models are heavily backing a purple wave for your daily fantasy builds.

Here are the core pillars anchoring our optimal DraftStars lineups:

Luke Jackson (Projected 111.5 pts) Appearing in 100% of our optimal builds, "Dogga" is an absolute lock. He's primed to dominate the hit-outs, but it’s his elite ground-level follow-up, tackling pressure, and contested marking around the ground that will see him rack up a monster fantasy score.

Corey Wagner (Projected 75.3 pts) Another 100% exposure lock. Wagner's relentless work rate through the middle and defensive transition makes him a daily fantasy magnet. Expect him to link up all night, racking up cheap uncontested marks and crucial outside disposals.

Josh Treacy (Projected 81.0 pts) The 'Big Cohuna' is featured in every single top lineup. Treacy has become a contested marking beast. If Freo gets on top in the midfield, Treacy is the main man to convert that dominance into goals, strong grabs, and massive DraftStars points.

Caleb Serong (Projected 104.6 pts) & Shai Bolton (Projected 90.8 pts) This dynamic midfield duo appears in 9 out of 10 builds. Serong is your classic disposal and clearance pig, guaranteed to stuff the stat sheet with inside touches and tackles. Meanwhile, Bolton brings the explosive X-factor, capable of breaking lines, racking up score involvements, and kicking snags of his own.

Position-by-Position Quick Tips

• RUC: Look no further than Luke Jackson. Set and forget—he is the undisputed premium ruck choice for this slate.
• DEF: Target Heath Chapman and Jordan Clark for their elite rebounding, run-and-carry, and intercept marking capabilities off half-back.
• MID: Build your engine room around the Serong-Bolton axis, but don't sleep on Matthew Johnson as a reliable point-scoring machine on the outside.
• FWD: Anchor your forward line with Josh Treacy for goals, and inject Isaiah Dudley for elite forward-half pressure and tackle points.
