twice in a row for Demons ball magnet Clayton Oliver. The superstar midfielder had a day out against the Roos, collecting a record-breaking 45 possessions, taking five marks and laying six tackles for a round-high 151. He is well and truly entrenched in Roy’s Rollin’ 22 midfielders and is still a great trade target despite his hefty price tag, given he has the round 14 bye and will help navigate the first two bye rounds.
HONOURABLE MENTIONS
u Darcy Parish has strung together a nice five-week stretch, topped by his season-high 146 from 43 possessions and eight tackles, while his Essendon teammate Mason Redman was an unlikely scoring hero for Draft teams with 133. Brisbane’s Jarryd Lyons loves playing the Hawks and that was the case again, scoring 129, and popular under-priced premium Giant Josh Kelly continued his good form with 124.
CASH COWS OF THE WEEK
MICHAEL BARLOW MEDAL VOTES – ROUND 10
5
JOEL JEFFREY GCS, FWD – 83 u The second-year Sun played just his second game of the season, but that didn’t stop him from being the highest-scoring cash cow for the round. He had only 10 kicks and five marks, but kicked an impressive five ‘sausage rolls’ to ensure he snagged the five votes. JAKE SOLIGO ADEL, MID – 77 u After barely getting a look in at the start of the year with scores of 17 and 11 (as the medi sub), the young midfielder hadn’t been sighted again before returning to the side last week. He managed a season-high with 19 possessions and a goal.

JASON HORNE-FRANCIS NM, MID – 75 u The prized No. 1 pick returned from a hamstring complaint and didn’t miss a beat, recording his highest score since round four. NICK DAICOS COLL, DEF/MID – 75 u No doubt about the young Pie star. He overcame a slow start and came home with a wet sail to again be among the vote-getters. PADDY McCARTIN SYD, FWD/DEF – 72 u The big Swan defender ensured his cash generating continued to move in the right direction after an impressive game in a tough match-up with the Blues.

MARCUS BONTEMPELLI
WEST COAST EAGLES
WESTERN BULLDOGS
MID, $812,000 u The Dogs skipper is ripe for the picking and the cherry on top is he is in the mix to add forward status. Has been on fire the past two weeks with 119 and 116. He remains a bargain with a BE of 93.
TOM MITCHELL
HAWTHORN
MID, $795,000 u The bargain premium of the round is none other than the Pig. Mitchell was back after missing a week but, more importantly, was back in the middle where he does most damage. Available for $174K cheaper than his original price.
CALEB SERONG
FREMANTLE
MID, $762,000 u Speaking of bargains, the Dockers hard nut is there for the picking. The word is that Nat Fyfe is nearing a return, but I wouldn’t worry about that because he is dominating. In the past three weeks, he has scores of 112, 126 and 113. He has a BE of just 59. ALSO CONSIDER: Luke Cleary, Jake Soligo, Jacob Wehr.
WARNIE
ALEX WITHERDEN
SELL CONNOR ROZEE
PORT ADELAIDE
DEF, $813,000
FWD, $639,000
u On paper, ‘Witho’ looked one of the safest options to replace the injured Lachie Whitfield, given he hadn’t dropped under 91 all season and had reached triple figures four times. Unfortunately, he had just 18 possessions and no tackles for 68.
u The role is there, but the scoring punch isn’t. After moving into the midfield in round five and six for scores of 113 and 119, he hasn’t come close to those heights again. Has a BE of 91, which looks a stretch given his recent form.
ANGUS BRAYSHAW
PATRICK DANGERFIELD
MELBOURNE
GEELONG
DEF/MID, $772,000
MID, $619,000
u Had a dream match-up against the Roos but barely got his hands on it for the first three quarters. Saved himself to some extent, eventually collecting 18 possessions and taking five marks for 67.
u A disappointing performance against the Power, gathering 18 possessions, taking one mark and laying two tackles for 45 before succumbing to a calf complaint. Will have a BE of 110 upon his return, a score he has failed to reach this season.
PADDY McCARTIN
SYDNEY SWANS
FWD/DEF, $423,000 u Over the past three weeks, has breathed life into his cash generating with impressive scores of 86, 55 and 73. Has a BE of just 27 and looks more than capable of filling a hole for the round 12 bye before moving him on before round 13. ALSO CONSIDER: Patrick Cripps, Corey Durdin Jason Horne-Francis.
ROY
JAKE BOWEY
MELBOURNE
DEF, $519,000 u Despite a handy bye, he needs to be traded before that. Has scores of 52, 55 and 41 and a BE of 95 leading into this week’s game. Dropped $18K last week and needs to be moved on. ALSO CONSIDER: Nic Martin, Matt Rowell, Nick Daicos.

ROUND 10 – 2126 PTS
ROUND 10 – 2153 PTS
ROUND 10 – 2189 PTS
u If you haven’t paid much attention to your byes, it’s vital you do it now to ensure you can navigate the trying three-week bye period. Use your next five trades to ensure you have 18 players for round 12.
u Here’s a friendly reminder to make sure you have emergencies selected and be wary of using an early loop. The late changes due to illness are unpredictable and growing in frequency.
u The Dogs are a huge watch this week as they have several players capable of making a mockery of the Eagles. It’s just a matter narrowing down which one (or two) of them will push 150.
