The Suns were every fantasy player's best friend in 2011, when they rolled out 23 debutants, making everyone's job of finding bargain-priced players easy. However, Guy McKenna's team slid towards Fantasy obscurity in its second season, providing few 'cash cows' and even fewer consistent big scorers. As a unit, they ranked last for kicks and last for tackles, two staples of fantasy scoring. That was despite Gary Ablett's continued stellar form. The skipper finished behind only Dane Swan in scoring average across the AFL. Alongside Ablett, expect rookie Jaeger O'Meara to be a popular selection this season. - Mark Macgugan
