Tyler Wagner, a 28-year-old PE teacher from South Australia's Riverland, won the 2026 AFL Fantasy Classic — beating roughly 140,000 competitors by three points. Wagner, playing since 2014, named his side "Wagmantle" and built it around Fremantle ruckman Luke Jackson. The prize: a Toyota Tundra Platinum valued up to $182,000 and two Grand Final tickets.
