Premiums
Nick Riewoldt ($605,100, 120.43, 92) – Watched him make a mockery of The Blues defence Monday night and I am now a believer – whatever injury worries he’s had in the past, they’re not an issue now. What an absolute champion.
Stevie Johnson ($585,600, 115.2, 107) – Speaking of champions, Stevie’s spent the last 3 weeks tearing up the Dogs, Tiges and Bombers to the tune of 160, 121, and 123. After the Pies this week, he faces Port, the Gold Coast and GWS. I honestly believe you must do whatever you can to bring him into your team either this week or next. It won’t be cheap but he’ll repay you in spades.
Dustin Martin ($551,800, 111.29, 73) – Dusty hasn’t disappointed one little bit this year. His lowest score was an 80 against the Pies in R4 but since then he’s produced 3 decent sized tons and against Melbourne this week will go bananas again. R11 bye.
Midpricers
Drew Petrie ($485,900, 91, 48) – Absolutely dominates the weaker teams. His 3 120-ish scores this year have come against Brisbane, Port and The Dogs. R12 bye.
Matthew Stokes ($460,200, 98.57, 72) – A little inconsistent but with an average edging towards 100 you’d accept that. For the same reasons I’m recommending SJ, you’ve gotta consider Stokesy too.
Jordan Lewis ($450,200, 87.86, 80) – Hasn’t scored 100 yet this year but hasn’t scored less than 76 either. Just a reliable, consistent scorer who represents good value at this price.
Keeping this one brief too so drop past BS’s Rookie Review for the Forward rooks if you need ’em.

Stevie j coming in this week for me for Zorko.
The Zorko experience just didnt work out
Is it too late to jump on Nick R if the cash is available? He is looking like the only ultra premium forward at this stage of the competition.
Is it true the story of daisy being injured??
Motts are you not concerned that Stevie J maybe given a “rest” with some of the easier teams coming up?
Footy community I need help!!
In a bit of dilemma of who to trade for priddis
Hartlett to priddis
Or
Burgoyne to priddis
Both struggling, I think hartlett might come good soon
And Burgoyne has been averaging way below his usual
michael walters thoughts?
Spent a good few hours getting my Excel on last week figuring out if I could afford to get Stevie J instead of Daisy for my last forward spot. I could and I did and I’m pretty happy with the move too. Reckon with his more permanent midfield role now he might have even lost the flat-track bully tag.
is anyone considering Stokes? def playing a new role this year and after listening to C Scott on radio toady im very interested.
would make my forwards:
buddy, JJK, monfries, lecras, stevie j, stokes
planning next week JJK/monfries out for nic nat
TU: worth the risk
TD: better options out there
Wines to Priddis. Zilcho to Stevie j.
Bang 20 trades left with 4 rookies to upgrade.
Not trusting the 2 weeks on Daisy at all.
TU: Neade to Priddis, Daisy to Martin/Roughy/Boomer
TD: Neade to Priddis, Daisy to Ben Kennedy (with the aim of a double mid upgrade next week, Jobe and Cotch)
