It was a Fantasy field day for Rory Sloane, who recorded a game-high AFL Fantasy score in Adelaide’s win over Geelong on Friday night at Adelaide Oval.
Sloane scored 134 points in the contest, his dominance around the ball evident through 28 disposals (15 contested), seven clearances and seven tackles.
He had an impact up forward too, kicking an equal career-high three goals and adding five inside 50ms to set up his teammates.
‘Sloaney’ wasn’t the only Crow to stuff the stat sheet, the Crouch brothers followed closely with a combined 61 disposals and 18 clearances between them.
Matt (110) and Brad (107) were a vital part of a firing Adelaide engine room that had 20 more clearances than their opposition.
It’s the fifth week in a row that the elder Crouch has cracked the Fantasy ton, his string of form rewarded with a significant Fantasy price bump. He’s now priced at $598,000 after entering the season valued at $525,000.
Fantasy fans will want to keep an eye on the midfielder, who could potentially be sidelined after fracturing his cheekbone in the top-of-the-table clash.
Sam Jacobs proved important in the ruck, scoring 101 points after contributing 32 hit-outs and 17 disposals.
Jacobs rounded out Adelaide’s 100+ Fantasy contingent, operating at an excellent 82 per cent disposal efficiency on the night.
Richard Douglas (98) fell just shy of a century with his four-goal effort both a career and game-high for the half-forward.
Hugh Greenwood (85) remains an intriguing prospect for owners as the Category-B recruit continues to impress at AFL level. Now priced at $398,000, his value has skyrocketed by a staggering $248,000 after entering the season valued at $150,000.
