Rory Sloane was Adelaide’s AFL Fantasy standout on Saturday afternoon, recording his biggest total of the season so far.
Sloane slammed on 135 points against Fremantle from a team-high 31 possessions, eight tackles, seven marks and a goal.
His total was the fifth-biggest of any player for the round, and was the second-best score by a Crow for the season behind Rory Laird’s 136 in Showdown XL.
The 2013 Club Champion is one of the form Fantasy performers in the competition at the moment. Sloane has averaged just under 110 points through his past four rounds with his $501,000 set to explode in the coming weeks. He’ll take a break even of just 57 into this weekend’s match with the Western Bulldogs.
Another three Crows hit triple figures in Saturday’s win over the Dockers.
Like Sloane, Sam Jacobs continued his Fantasy resurgence with his first ton of the year. The ruckman had 21 possessions, 30 hit-outs and six marks for a solid 106.
Jacobs was the third-best ruck option for Round Six behind former Crow Kurt Tippett (121) and GWS youngster Rory Lobb (107).
Expect the 28-year-old to continue his Fantasy form this weekend too. He’s got a good record against the Western Bulldogs having made triple-figure totals in both meetings between the two teams last year.
Eddie Betts notched his third Fantasy ton of 2016 with a 104 from 17 touches, four tackles and a four-goal haul.
Consistency remains Betts’ battle. His Fantasy scorecard so far this season reads 91-100-79-104-57-104.
At the other end of the ground, Luke Brown scored 102 points for his second ton of the year and the second-biggest Fantasy total of his career.
Brown has added more attacking flair to his game this season and it’s paying dividends on the Fantasy front. He’s averaging a career-best 18 possessions and 74 points per game so far this year.
Brown has already added over $70k to his value and could soar beyond the $400k mark for the first time if his current form continues.
Dual-position DEF/MIDs Brodie Smith (93) and Paul Seedsman (87) continue to get it done and remain popular choices among Fantasy coaches. Both men are in more than 15 per cent of all sides.
Defender Kyle Hartigan earns a mention for his 81-point performance from 18 disposals and eight marks. It was the third-best Fantasy total of his career and his highest score in over a year.
