AFL Fantasy 2026 – Round 21 Review | Bring Back Billy, Stocks Up on Stocker & Vital Cogs

This week Heff is joined by Zanks to review Round 21 of the 2026 AFL Fantasy season from a draft and keeper league perspective.

We welcomed back Billy Dowling with a massive 107-point performance from 18 disposals, 11 marks and three goals. After consistently producing big numbers in the SANFL, can he keep scoring despite playing predominantly forward at AFL level, and is he worth an aggressive waiver bid?

Stephen Coniglio continued his resurgence with 99 points from 20 disposals, six marks and three goals. With favourable matchups against Gold Coast and West Coast on the horizon, we assess his short-term value and whether his forward-heavy role makes him too volatile for coaches heading into finals.

Liam Stocker also impressed with 102 points from 25 disposals, eight marks and three tackles. He now has a three-game average of 88.3, but is his recent form and role sustainable enough to trust against Carlton this week?

We also work through plenty of other names worth monitoring, including Daniel McStay, Jhye Clark, Oscar McDonald, Oscar Ryan, Lachlan Bramble, Will Lorenz, Toby Bedford and more.

As always, it’s about working out what’s real, what’s role-driven, and what’s just a one-week spike.

If you're playing draft and keeper leagues, this episode is packed with the insights you need to stay ahead of the curve. 

Good luck to everyone competing in their keeper league finals!
