Will Ashcroft sits at #24 in the 50 Most Relevant series, and his fantasy relevance is far more complex than surface-level averages suggest.
In this episode, MJ Want is joined by JD to break down Ashcroft’s fantasy outlook through performance data, community perception, and the reality of Brisbane’s stacked midfield. With two Norm Smith Medals and two premierships already to his name, Ashcroft’s pedigree is unquestioned but fantasy football doesn’t reward reputation alone.
This conversation explores:
Why Ashcroft’s fantasy value doesn’t always match his on-field impact
The challenge of securing consistent centre square opportunities at Brisbane
How opening round performances can dramatically shift player value
Community perception vs actual scoring trends
Drafting strategies when role growth isn’t guaranteed
Why reacting quickly matters more than being “right” long-term
This episode is a reminder that fantasy football isn’t moral, emotional, or reputation-based it’s about value, role, and timing. If you’re trying to decide where Will Ashcroft fits into your AFL Fantasy or SuperCoach plans, this breakdown gives you the clarity you need.
