They were all known already but here they are anyway... :)

NEW DUAL-POSITION PLAYERS

Jimmy Bartel (Geelong)
Averaged under 100 for the first time in five years in 2012 - 98.6. Won 16 per cent of his disposals in the forward 50, a career-high, and will be a forward/midfielder in 2013.

Tom Rockliff (Brisbane Lions)
Capable of huge scores as a midfielder, Rockliff spent most of the second half of the 2012 season parked in the Lions' forward 50. He'll be tempting as a forward/midfielder next season.

Greg Broughton (Gold Coast)
Frustrated many in fantasy land by moving all over the field this season, although the blame for that can largely be levelled at Dockers coach Ross Lyon. Broughton will hopefully be able to settle under a new coach at Gold Coast next season and will be classified as a forward/defender.

Jude Bolton (Sydney)
Swans veteran will play his final season as a forward/midfielder.

Hamish Hartlett (Port Adelaide)
Rising star be a defender/midfielder next season which enhances his appeal, but history of hamstring injuries means he will still be a brave choice.

Champion has also revealed that there will be at least 14 ruck/forwards in 2013 , more than double the number available last season.

LOST DUAL-POSITION STATUS

Dayne Beams (Collingwood)
Became a SuperCoach star in 2012, averaging 123 points a game. Can you find a spot for him as a midfielder only?

Steele Sidebottom (Collingwood)
Started the year on fire but tailed off a bit at the end. Like Beams, he's now a permanent midfielder.

Alan Didak (Collingwood)
Champion Data has thrown Dids in with his younger mates. Midfield-only next year too.

Nathan Fyfe (Fremantle)
Follows the path of many promising juniors who start forward before graduating to the midfield. Mid-only.

Ryan O'Keefe (Sydney)
By the time he starred in the Grand Final ROK wasn't spending too much time near goal. Clearance gun who can only be picked in the midfield in 2013.

Champion Data is yet to reveal whether Brendon Goddard will retain his defender/midfielder status at Essendon, while fans are also keen to learn the decisions on Dustin Martin (fwd/mid last year) and Bryce Gibbs (mid only last year but def/mid in past seasons).

Surely Danger will lose his also?
Well there will be more so it's likely that he might change.

Rockliff a lock. Hartlett an interesting one, if looking fit will come into serious consideration in def.

Nah dmart is safe. He played a heap of footy across half forward. Not sure im brave enough to pick him after the rollercoaster ride last season though
