Round Six didn’t get off to a good start with our favourite rookie, Cam Ellis-Yolmen (MID, $334,000) missing last week’s game with a hamstring injury. Stay patient with him, he’ll be back soon and still has more money to make.
However, in the game though, the Crows got back to their winning ways with Matthew Jaensch (DEF, $492,000) leading all scorers with 123pts from 12 marks.
Taylor Walker (FWD, $434,000) bounced back to his best with four goals for his first 100+ score in four weeks and young gun Jake Kelly (DEF, $230,000) shot up $43,000 in price after his best game of 104pts. I’ve been talking this kid up for weeks so I hope you have jumped on board. He has a break even of -15 and will only grow in price over the coming rounds.
ON THE RADAR
Last week I mentioned Matthew Wright (FWD/MID, $299,000) as one to keep an eye on at his juicy price. He scored 91 on the weekend and was very impressive with his 28 disposals. His stocks may have risen as well with the bad news about the luckless Rory Sloane (MID, $523,000) missing the next 4-6 weeks.
He’s had a shocking run of bad luck and has now scored 67, 67 and 61 over the last three weeks. He must be traded right now, but don’t forget to bring him back into your team when he returns stronger than ever.

TOP 5 SCORERS
1 – 123 Matthew Jaensch (DEF, $492,000)
2 – 108 Sam Jacobs (RUC, $528,000)
3 – 108 Tom T. Lynch (FWD, $442,000)
4 – 107 Kyle Cheney (DEF, $341,000)
5 – 105 Taylor Walker (FWD, $434,000)
WHAT’S COMING UP
This week, the Crows will host the Saints who are coming off an amazing win against the Bulldogs on the weekend and I’m predicting big Sam Jacobs (RUC, $528,000) to have a standout game. He scored 100 and 125 against the Saints last year and should be massive once again.
All the best for Round Seven. Go Crows!
