Banfield made his AFL debut with 47 in a 36-point Saints win over Richmond — 30 above his 17 BE and the cash cow journey starts from $113.5k. He is highly rated at the club and the potential is real. The risk: Mason Wood's return threatens his spot and he floated in and out of the game on debut. Watch one more round — if he holds selection for R11, buy without hesitation. If Wood is named, the cash gen story is over before it begins.

Vest Risk· T3

Charlie Banfield had his AFL debut in R10 but community consensus suggests his job security is at risk when Mason Wood returns. Multiple Saints fan commenters noted he floated in and out of the game and that there are too many unknowns to invest in him for SC given Wood and other player returns pending.
