If Darcy is named this week, I'll go through with Jackson > Flanders. I'm 3.5k short of my preferred 2 trade setup so I'm boosting that or fixing Sexton > Lohmann (I don't particularly like option #2).
I can see him dropping $50k+ into his byes. At which time I'll know if he's the 85, 95 or 105 player with Darcy in the team.

More on it here :-
It appears Fremantle haven’t seen the last of Luke Jackson as their centre bounce chief this season, with Justin Longmuir revealing Sean Darcy will need to be eased back into ruck duties.
The Dockers will make a call after a Wednesday morning training session in Glenelg over Darcy’s fitness for Saturday night’s clash with Port Adelaide.
But even if he does play for the first time this season in the wake of knee surgery, Darcy will have his load managed and could spend extra time on the bench or as part of the Dockers’ forward mix.
“It will be, he will take a little bit of time to build his fitness and get back to playing large ruck minutes like he did last year and has done for us in the past,” Longmuir said.

Isaac Heeney
Midfield82%Forward18%
SuperCoach’s dominant force in the first month has a week off this week. Taylor Adams’ debut for the Swans did little to halt Heeney’s barnstorming start as he kicked two goals and had 26 disposals in the Adelaide Hills. It’s worth noting, though, that he had a season-low 55 per cent CBAs.

Matt Roberts
Defence91%Midfield8%Forward1%
This defensive switch has been a big win for SuperCoach and the Swans. Roberts had 17 disposals for 80 points against West Coast and is going at 90.8 per cent kicking efficiency this season.
Alex Sexton
Defence90%Forward10%
After playing the first three games Sexton will still qualify as a FWD-DEF even if he doesn’t return to the team before round 7, but in that scenario he will be gone from most SuperCoach teams by then.
Max Holmes
Defence63%Midfield37%
Barring a change of heart from Chris Scott in the next two weeks, Holmes will be a DEF-MID. He is ranked above average fod intercepts (5.3) and elite for metres gained (537.9). He looks at home surging out of the backline.
Marcus Bontempelli
Midfield87%Forward13%
Very little chance of DPP unless Luke Beveridge leaves him at full-forward for the next two weeks. Which isn’t as crazy as it sounds the way Bevo spins the magnets, but still a massive long shot.
Buku Khamis
Defence100%
One Dog we can lock in for DPP status. Khamis has transformed from a goalkicking target to a key defender who took six intercept marks playing on Jeremy Cameron.
Christian Petracca
Midfield82%Forward18%
Petracca’s numbers are going the wrong way for those holding out hope of DPP status, with his forward time for the season dropping from 20 per cent to 18 per cent after round 4. It’s hard to see a massive turarnound from here.
Massimo D’Ambrosio has been a great pick-up for the Hawks. Picture: Dylan Burns/AFL Photos via Getty Images

A monty to become a DEF-MID after again spending most of his game time against Collingwood on a wing – at least when he wasn’t stuck on the bench. Averaging 21 touches a game and kicking at 71 per cent.
Christian Salem
Defence58%Midfield42%
Salem didn’t attend a centre bounce last round and his midfield percentage is sliding. Will it stay above 35 per cent? He’ll need to get back into Simon Goodwin’s centre bounce plans to earn DPP.
Ollie Wines
Midfield81%Forward19%
Ken Hinkley wasn’t overly convincing when talking about Wines’ possible return from a hamstring injury this week. Either way he needs to become a permanent forward to have a chance of becoming a dual-position player, in this round of changes at least.

edit - 30pct being suggested as fwd. 45pct round 1 and 10pct round 4. Needs 40pct over next two rounds to qualify! Source jackson davey
