Cheat Sheet and Projections
We have reviewed players from each team in the New Zealand Warriors vs Gold Coast Titans match-up to help you find the best choices on Saturday's slate.
| Selection | Player | Salary | Proj. Pts | Pts/$1K |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stud | Erin Clark (WAR, FLEX/FWD) | $16,720 | 58.5 | 3.5 |
| Value | Klese Haas (GOL, FLEX/FWD) | $8,400 | 43 | 5.1 |
| Fade | Jayden Campbell (GOL, HH/FLEX) | $18,880 | 54.2 | 2.9 |
| Cheapie | Jacob Alick-Wiencke (GOL, FLEX/OB) | $8,000 | 39.8 | 5 |
According to Fantasy Insider's DFS model, our "stud" is the highest projected scorer across the slate, while "value" picks provide the most "bang for your buck," meaning they are expected to perform well relative to their salary.
Conversely, a "fade" is a player considered to offer lower value for money, based on their expected score relative to their salary. For budget-conscious strategies, "cheapie" options highlight the best value players at lower price points not already mentioned.
In fantasy sports, understanding value—assessing a player's potential output against their salary—is crucial, as players scoring high relative to their cost are key in crafting the optimal line-up.
The "Pts/$1K" metric shows the predicted points for every $1,000 of a player's salary. A higher number indicates better value, making it easier to spot players who could outperform their cost.
