Carlton’s Stevens Available This Week
Fantasy AFL coaches, and maybe the real ones at Carlton too, would have been a bit surprised as some said that Nick Stevens was done for the year. Carlton say he will be playing against the Eagles.
From the Carlton site: Stevens undergoes precautionary tests
AFL Fantasy Impact:
Stevens played much better in round 1 compared to his past two games, so maybe there was a problem somewhere. It seems like he will be playing this week so fantasy coaches who have him in the midfield can leave him there. If the initial reports are right and Stevens does have to miss, then Bentick might be a player to sign. Bentick has been playing well but he might get more time in the middle with Stevens out. Of course going for Gibbs would be another trade to make, although he is worth trading for even if Stevens is still playing.
