Let's give this a spin for 2022

As per Milo Cyrus' thread last year
It's forecast based on who you think will score the most points between now and the end of the season.

Will be particularly useful as we work out who to upgrade to during this period of downgrade/upgrade, and perhaps helps with bye planning.

My initial thoughts:

DEF: Docherty, Short, Crisp, Hewett, Lloyd, Whitfield (Sicily, Hall, Houston)
MID: Steele, Macrae, Brayshaw, Laird, Neale, Miller, Cripps, Oliver (Keays, Mills, Petracca, Walsh)
RUC: Gawn, ROB (Marshall)
FWD: Dunkley, Taranto, Heeney, English, Treloar, Parker (Duncan, Butters, Gresham)

Those in brackets are just outside / next up.
Obviously Grundy would be in my top 3 rucks but irrelevant at this stage of the season. As opposed to English who is more immediately relevant.

Looks about right.
My tweaks would be:
Def: I would have Witherden or Sicily in the defense 6 over Lloyd at the minute.
Mid: Keays in the 8 mids over Laird. Smith or Mills in the the 8 over Neale. Neale I dont think makes the extended bench. Too tag prone.
Ruck: I'd have English R2 as thats realistically where we're all throwing him once he's back fit.
Fwd: Duncan and DeGoey into the forwards in place of Heeney and English. Early crow on Heeney but I have never seen him as a prolific fantasy scorer.
 
DEF: Doch, Short, Crisp, Hewett, Sinclair, Witherden (Weakfield, Hous, Zorko)....Hall is still missing another 2-3 weeks so can't put him in now

MID: Brayshaw, Steele, Zerrett, Macrae, BSmith, Mills, Oliver, Keays (Petracca, Neale, Walsh, Wines)

RUC: Gawn (Darcy, ROB, Marshall)

FWD: Dunks, Taranto, English, JDG, Parker, Heeney (Treloar, Duncan, Cogs)
 
DEF: Doch, Crisp, Short, Witho, Hewett, Sinclair (Whit, Houston, Sic)

MID: Brayshaw, Steele, Keays, B. Smith, Mills, Macrae, Oliver, Crippa (Neale, Walsh, Touk, Laird)

RUC: Gawn, English (Marshall, S. Darcy)

FWD: Dunks, TT, JDG, Heeney, Parker, Duncan (Butters, Treloar, Gresh)

Mid updates required: Neale and Mills must be in I feel, probably for Baz and Macrae (until he hits the form again)
Otherwise, no major changes. Sicily or Zorko perhaps into the defence. No clear F6 though I would say Cogs gave the best attempt.
Moore from Hawthorn looking good as a forward somehow.

I have 15 of that lot at this stage. Brayshaw will come in next week.

Could Preuss keep up R2 numbers? I'd prefer him to ROB atm. Only alternatives would be a fully fit Darcy or a Ryder-less Marshall for mine. None of these seem likely!
All teams with a decent ruckman too.
If only he played against Max and we would really see where he is at.
Oh well.

Stewart a bit stiff to not even make the bench?
