Fremantle's Andrew Brayshaw. Picture: AFL Photos

THE third week of the Marsh Community Series generally has the best talent on show for each club as they piece together their likely 22 for round one.

Centre bounce attendances allows AFL Fantasy coaches insight into who is in the middle when the ball is bounced to start each quarter and after each goal.

Role is a key factor for team selection.

We hear the term 'more midfield time' for a range of players in the pre-season. These numbers help us see whether it is true. It is important to understand how your players score in their respective roles. Some may not need to be in the centre square to score and aren’t always helped by the extra time in the engine room.
