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.
9. Nakia Cockatoo
Supercoach Price - $123,900
Fantasy Price - $243,000
After spending the past two seasons on the sideline, selecting Nakia Cockatoo in your fantasy forward line is somewhat of a risk.
Still, with a starting price akin to that of a rookie, it appears be a gambit worth making.
After years in the wilderness, Geelongโs Nakia Cockatoo is cheap and he looks to have overcome his injury lay-offs. Hereโs why he could be your secret SuperCoach weapon in 2020. https://t.co/dz8wEt9HNz pic.twitter.com/Fvzj8HWF5N

Although far from an elite scorer โ as evidenced by his Fantasy average of just 49 in 2018 โ should the Lions get the former top 10 picks body right and back on the park, you are sure to be kicking yourself if you have looked elsewhere.
Keep your eyes peeled for official medical and training reports this pre-season for the best indication on when to pull the trigger.
