Zac Taylor $117,300 MID

Riley Thilthorpe $3293,00 FWD

Taylor Walker $469,400 FWD

Josh Worrell $123,900 DEF

We say: Rory Laird is the most expensive Crow, and by a big margin. He has lost his dual-position status but after averaging 116.2 playing as a pure midfielder last season, he could be a unique option in 2022. Ben Keays is a surprise No.2 on the Adelaide rich list, just ahead of Jordan Dawson, but the former Swan has a huge upside after averaging 114 over the final nine rounds last year.

Deividas Uosis $123,900 DEF

Darcy Wilmot $139,800 DEF

Dayne Zorko $595,400 MID

We say: No shortage of scoring power at the Lions, led by the perennially underrated Jarryd Lyons (av 113 and 118 the past two seasons) and Dayne Zorko, who can only be selected in the midfield this year after being last year’s top-scoring forward. Keep Daniel Rich in your backline plans - he only dipped below 90 three times in 2021. Oh, and Lachie Neale could be the bargain of the year.

Jacob Weitering $512,200 DEF

Zac Williams $461,100 DEF

Tom Williamson $244,000 DEF

Lewis Young $332,000 DEF/RUC

We say: Sam Walsh is the eighth-most expensive midfielder in KFC SuperCoach and that could still look like good value by the end of the season. Sam Docherty is the only other Blue over $500k, with recruit Adam Cerra coming in at $490k. Patrick Cripps hasn’t been this cheap since his second season in 2015, but after averaging 83.5 points a game last year, can you trust him?

We say: Brodie Grundy has lost his spot in the big two rucks in KFC SuperCoach and will start 2022 as the fourth-most expensive ruckman – but his 2021 average of 115.2 is nothing to sneeze at. He’s clearly the top-priced Magpie ahead of Jack Crisp, who had a career-best season in 2021 and finished with scores of 140, 143, 103, 124, 97 in his last five games.

Peter Wright $447,700 RUC/FWD

Brandon Zerk-Thatcher $221,300 DEF

We say: The big two at Tullamarine are Zach Merrett and Darcy Parish, with Merrett edging out his teammate by about $4000 at the KFC SuperCoach bank and one point per game on 2021 averages (Merrett 115 to Parish 114.1). Jordan Ridley is $10k cheaper than he started last year while Jye Caldwell and Dylan Shiel could be big bargains returning from injury.

Karl Worner $102,400 DEF/MID

Hayden Young $418,400 DEF

We say: Nat Fyfe’s starting price is the lowest it’s been for a decade, and you have to go back to 2012 to find a cheaper price tag for Michael Walters. It’s a changing of the guard at the Dockers, led by Sean Darcy, the second-most expensive ruckman in KFC SuperCoach in 2022.

We say: It’s Touk then daylight at the Suns. Miller is the third-most expensive player in the game after averaging 124.5 last season, and $126k more exensive than the Suns’ No.2, Brayden Fiorini. Former top-10 draft pick Elijah Hollands is set to be one of the most popular forward rookies this year.

We say: Patrick Dangerfield has lost his dual-position status, but Mitch Duncan has picked it up and could be a shrewd pick in the forward line – he averaged 117 points per game in the first seven rounds last year before getting injured. The most expensive Cat is ever-reliable defender Tom Stewart.

We say: Josh Kelly is top dog again at the Giants, although his average last season (107) was down on four straight years of 113+ averages. Having said that, he played 21 gams for the first time since 2017. Tim Taranto is an interesting proposition after being given MID/FWD status – on last year’s averages he would have been the third top-scoring forward.

We say: Tom Mitchell scores KFC SuperCoach points in his sleep (averages over the past four seasons: 119, 129, 114, 117) but the fantasy interest at the Hawks in 2022 is down back. James Sicily is severely underpriced but he will have to share the points with the likes of Jack Scrimshaw, Will Day and 2021 revelations Jarman Impey and Changkuoth Jiath. Are there enough to go around?

We say: It’s a cliche that Melbourne is a club for the well-heeled but the SuperCoach bankers seemingly agree, with Max Gawn, Clayton Oliver and Christian Petracca valued at a combined $1.9 million – pick those three and 20 per cent of your salary cap is gone. So, where’s the value at the Dees? Luke Jackson is on the rise and has RUC/FWD eligibility and Jake Bowey lived up to the Caleb Daniel comparisons in his seven senior appearances last year, including an 80-point game in a preliminary final.

We say: Jack Ziebell and Aaron Hall were revelations after being moved to the backline last season – this year they are both listed as defenders and are a lot more expensive. Hall, in particular, could be worth the investment. Meanwhile, No.1 draft pick Jason Horne-Francis is the most expensive first-year player available, but plenty will fork out the cash for the teenage prodigy.

Ollie Wines $612,600 MID

We say: Ollie Wines has been threatening to make the jump to an elite KFC SuperCoach scorer for a while and in 2021 he did it, adding eight points to his average. That makes him Port Adelaide’s most expensive player, but interestingly the Brownlow medallist is 13th on the list of top-priced mids in KFC SuperCoach for 2022.

Can Ollie Wines improve on a career-best season in 2021?

We say: The Tigers pride themselves on being an even team and that is reflected in their KFC SuperCoach prices, with just three players priced above $500,000 - Jayden Short, Toby Nankervis and Dustin Martin. Dusty hasn’t been this cheap since 2013 - from that point he averaged at least 99.5 points a game every year until last season, when he dipped to 92.5. What can he do in 2022?

Mason Wood $346,400

We say: Who is the second-best KFC SuperCoach player at the Saints? No.1 is easy - Jack Steele had the second-best average in the game last year (126), which is reflected in his huge price tag. Rowan Marshall is the second-most expensive player at Moorabbin - $150k cheaper than Steele - but can only be selected in the ruck this year. Next on the price list is Zak Jones, but there could be value in the likes of Jade Gresham and Dan Hannebery.

We say: POD alert! Callum Mills is likely to be overlooked by most coaches this year after losing his dual-position status, but after boosting his average by 11 points a game in 2021 (to 112) and entering his prime at age 24, he is a legitimate option as a pure midfielder. Luke Parker has been a genuine premium since 2014 but shows no sign of slowing down, averaging 121 over his last eight games last season.

He’s also the only Eagle priced above $500,000. The most popular West Coast player this year could be mature-age recruit Greg Clark, who finally gets a shot at AFL level after dominating the WAFL for years.

We say: The Bulldogs have KFC SuperCoach stars on every line, and their price tags reflect that with six $500k-plus players. How many can you afford? Jack Macrae is the most expensive player in the game in 2022 and Marcus Bontempelli isn’t far behind - not having both could really hurt you. Josh Dunkley, meanwhile, is a much tougher player to read. He has the capacity to torch non-owners (he averaged 129 in the first six rounds last year before his injury) but Luke Beveridge loves to keep us guessing about his role. His average was a much more modest 93 after he returned in Round 18 (inncluding finals) and he will be one of the big talking points in the 2022 pre-season.
