Caleb Serong remains one of the most fascinating premium midfield discussions heading into 2026 and that combination of proven scoring and bounce-back potential places him at #26 in our Top 50 Most Relevant Players Countdown.
In this episode, MJ Want is joined by MiniMonk to assess Serong’s fantasy outlook after a season that fell short of expectations by his elite standards. While 2025 was widely viewed as a “down year,” Serong still averaged 105.7 in SuperCoach, underscoring just how strong his fantasy base remains.
We break down why Serong continues to rank among the competition’s best for centre clearances and contested possessions, how Fremantle’s team dynamics shape his scoring profile, and why fixture quality and matchups could be critical to a 2026 resurgence. The conversation also explores how small shifts form, rules, or role nuance could unlock another premium ceiling.
Key discussion points include:
What changed for Serong in 2025
Why his contested profile still drives elite scoring
AFL Fantasy vs SuperCoach translation
Fremantle’s midfield dynamics and support
Fixture analysis and matchup-driven upside
Draft and upgrade strategy for premium mids
If you’re weighing whether to trust the bounce-back or tread cautiously, this episode gives you the context to make a clear, confident call on Caleb Serong in 2026.
