THE FIRST of three AFL Fantasy position updates have been confirmed by Champion Data, adding a large number of new dual-position players (DPP) with the game’s first triple-position player (TPP) revealed.
With the addition of TPPs, all players qualify for a position addition: those with a single position allocation and dual-position from the starting positions. They will have played 35 per cent of time in their new position and have played three games to be eligible.

Western Bulldogs utility Oskar Baker is the first official triple-position player after having FWD status added to his existing DEF/MID. He may add some flexibility to deep draft squads, but with his 54 average, he may not necessarily be an option.
Midfielders adding DEF or FWD status are usually the winners for most Fantasy coaches.
Listen to the AFL Fantasy Podcast with The Traders at Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Sam Durham, Tom Powell, Touk Miller and Chad Warner have all shown the ability to score in the past and are now available to be selected in the forward line. Adding DEF include Oliver Florent, Xavier Lindsay and Luke Parker due to their role changes.
Plenty of popular Classic options have increased flexibility now with the ability to shuffle between positions such as Josh Rachele, Caleb Windsor, Tom Blamires, Jai Serong and Connor Budarick.
Updates will be made to AFL Fantasy Classic and Draft shortly after lockout lifting.
