Round 15 Preview - Dawson Fever & The Run Home Begins - AFL Fantasy 2026
Episode 36
Wednesday, 17 June, 2026

The bye rounds are nearly behind us, but AFL Fantasy coaches still have some massive decisions to make before the run home begins. With rankings continuing to shift, premiums coming off their bye, and cash generation slowing down, every trade is becoming more important than ever. This week, Josh and Croxy go it alone with Hawko overseas and Ryan sidelined, breaking down their Round 14 scores, rankings and team values as they look to navigate the second last week of the byes. The boys discuss the standout performers from the round, hand out Brownlow votes, call out the biggest flops, and analyse the players who are helping, or hurting, fantasy coaches right now. There is also a deep dive into the most traded players, including whether Jordan Dawson is worth paying top dollar for, the appeal of premium defenders like Whitfield, Ash and Noble, and the value options emerging across every line. The lads also discuss trade plans, injury concerns, rookie cash cows and the key decisions coaches need to make before Round 15 lockout. Plus, Just the Tips returns as the boys predict the winners for Round 15 and look ahead to what could be a crucial week for coaches trying to set themselves up for the second half of the fantasy season.
