Some great games this week with varying styles to enjoy. Great game at the Gabba along with a high scoring draw and some good hard contested footy down at Skilled Stadium.
Player of the round goes to Gary ablett Jnr with Lance Franklin having possibly his best ever game.
Cpl of games with even contributions such as the Doggies/Tiges game...difficult to find standouts from them to slot into the team this week.
Ruck again a very difficult slot with some decent but in general rather unspectacular performances. Have gone with Josh Fraser this week for his 4 goals. Jolly/Cox/Hille/Simmonds all had reasonable games so i chose the #2 ruck from the more contested footy game. Once again Steven King's tapwork was good but fell early to injury. Sandilands a lot of tapwork but against nobody...anyone rucking against Adelaide right now SHOULD be totally dominant.
Not many standouts down back this week. Hudghton had a terrific one on one game...with guys like Rutten and Scarlett also solid without being outstanding. Bock was v good on Pavlich i thought. Croad did well but i saw them use JBrown as both a decoy for the main target of Bradshaw and also unsuccessully thru the middle.

Captain of the Week: C Judd
Coach of the Week: D Laidley
Kids of the week: Palmer, Armitage, Boak, Masten, Houli, McKinley, Reimers, Kreuzer, Thomas, Campbell
Shame file: Noone...maybe Sydney for an "unsydneylike" last qtr after being within 3pts. But we did get blown away by an unstoppable force on the day.
As a side issue.... at this pt of the season my choice aound the centre clearances (not necessarily around the ground) is this:
Ruck: A fit Dean Cox
Mids: G Ablett, L Hayes, S Black
Interchanging with your choice of:C Judd, J Bartel, B Sewell, B Harvey
