Jye Caldwell lands at #13 in the 50 Most Relevant countdown and he might be one of the most polarising fantasy players on the board.
In this episode, MJ Want is joined by JD to break down Caldwell’s AFL Fantasy and SuperCoach profile heading into the 2026 season. The discussion dives deep into why Caldwell continues to split opinion across the fantasy community elite scoring potential on one hand, durability concerns on the other.
They unpack:
Caldwell’s contested game and why it creates a strong scoring baseline
The flashes of elite fantasy scoring when his role is right
How injuries have shaped both his career and public perception
Essendon’s midfield mix and where Caldwell realistically fits
The impact of teammates and rotations on his ceiling
Why consistency, not talent, is the key question
Early-season fixtures and how they could boost his scoring
Draft-day strategy: when the risk is worth taking
The balance between upside and reliability in fantasy builds
This episode is all about risk tolerance.
If Caldwell stays healthy and plays a consistent midfield role, he has the profile of a genuine top-end scorer. But fantasy coaches need to decide whether they’re comfortable betting on that outcome.
