From The Advertiser: Injury blow a pain in the neck
AFL Fantasy Impact:
While Ricciuto is unlikely to be in fantasy teams to start the season, some planning can be done for those who intend to trade for him after he returns. Welsh or Bock could be signed now and while their stats will be good when Ricciuto does play they will be better in the early rounds when he isn’t available. Welsh could have the biggest change in stats when Ricciuto does play, as Welsh could go from being the Crows’ full forward to then having to share the goal-square with Ricciuto.
