Irrespective of whether you prefer Supercoach or Fantasy, the aim of the game has always been to post the highest score.
Naturally, your chances improve when your team is loaded with superstars.
However, much the same as the main game, salary caps stymie any chance of selecting a potential All-Australian outfit from the outset.
In a game that rewards wheeling, dealing and picking players before they are appealing, selecting the right cash cows at the start of the season has the potential to send your scores soaring and keep your bank balance in the green.
Like the stock market, buying low and selling high is the key.
There are no rookies on this list, as we will be profiling the cream of the draft crop at a later date.
With this in mind, here is our list of the ten best players to milk and flip in 2021.
4. Jackson Hately
Supercoach Price - $310,300
Fantasy Price - $486,000
After making the switch from Western Sydney to West Lakes this off-season, expect Jackson Hately to see some serious midfield minutes in 2021.
Despite having to contend with names like Coniglio, Taranto and Kelly in the Giants for a position in the Giants midfield, Hately did manage six games in orange last season for an average of 70 and 64.2 across Fantasy and Supercoach respectively.

Now part of a comparatively threadbare Adelaide engine room, expect a rise in points, price and games played by the Canberran this year.
