It was a disappointing round of AFL Dream Team for the Crows with no Adelaide player cracking the 100 point mark in round three. However, there were some positives with a number of players rising sharply in value and another solid score from key forward Kurt Tippett, who is currently ranked as the 7th best DT forward.

Top 5 DT point scorers

Kurt Tippett 99pts
Led the way for the Crows in DT points in round three and always looked dangerous when the ball was moved forward. Had 17 disposals, eight marks and kicked 3.3. Has been a big DT improver, going up $22,200 in value and is currently averaging 95.67 points per round.

Sam Jacobs 93pts
Performed strongly in the ruck with 19 possessions and 25 hit-outs. The Crows big man is averaging 89 points per round so far in 2012 and is the 5th best DT ruckman in the competition.

Patrick Dangerfield 91pts
Battled hard for a team-high 27 possessions and 5 tackles. After three rounds Dangerfield is up $10,700 in Dream Team value.

Nathan van Berlo 85pts
Scored under 100 DT points for the first time in 2012, with 85 points from 24 disposals and three tackles. Van Berlo has had a solid start to the year and is averaging a quality 98.33 DT points per round.

David Mackay 78pts
Mackay had 20 possessions and a team-high 6 tackles against the Hawks. Has been a big DT improver for the Crows in 2012 rising $16,800 in value. A handy medium priced midfield option who should continue to improve barring injury.

On the up
A number of the Crows players have risen significantly in DT value after the first three rounds of the season. Hopefully you had at least one of these players in your side, because there was some money to be made…
