Yeh i get it, you explain it well and between you and Toga i think the reasons have been shown well by both of your last posts.
Between the two of you i dont think youve missed anything.

any more DPP F/R to come, im looking to see what clarke gets. He played up front all year so might be a F only  should be a F/R though, if he gets R only than its a joke.

that's possible as well...

I'm not entirely sold on the where they get possessions thing though... I mean, a player could spend 60% of their time forward, and only 40% mid, but then get 70% of their possessions in the midfield... doesn't mean they should be named midfield from a fantasy perspective imo- the large chunk of time they spend forward severely impacts their fantasy output, even if they carve up in the midfield, they wont be decent mid scorers due to the amount of time they sit forward.

And it skews it for younger/ lower placed teams as well- like these blokes might be spending large proportions of the game forward, and they are essentially forwards, but since the ball doesnt get to the forward line too often, the occasions when they push into the mids becomes the majority of their possessions.

For instance, at gws, for players who played more than 10 games, treloar was ranked  3rd for average goals, behind cameron and giles, while smith was ranked 5th (behind cameron, giles, treloar and palmer), I mean, the way it is now, our 3rd and 4th highest goal scorers aren't forward eligible :/ And, yeah, these guys are good, young players, but they're not people like jetta who gets the ball midfield and runs and bangs it in, or playing in strong teams like collingwood, where the ball is often in the forward 50 so heaps of mids kick goals, or like top tier midfielders like ablett, cotchin, boyd etc...

you get what I mean?

yeah i completely agree with you zip, that's the only feasible reason i could come up with as to why those blokes have lost DPP (i don't agree with this though)

The ball went In the GWS forward line ???
