fantasy gods are being no kinder to us. Amongst the causalities for round 18 are
Nic Naitanui, Pearce Hanley, Brett Goodes, Nathan Hrovat and Lachie Whitfield.
On a positive note Hawthorn duo, Franklin and Mitchell return, otherwise once
again many of us will be hitting the trade button. It’s only round 18 and
already the cry of “I’ve only got two trades left, help!” has arisen in forums –
I guess it doesn’t matter how many lollies you give a kid ... they’ll still eat
them all way to fast.
Once again Gary Ablett dominated and top scored for the round with 178
SC and another three Brownlow votes. Rising stars Jack Steven (161) and Ricky
Henderson (160) played pivotal roles in both their sides close matches, Steven
scored in the vicinity of 100 points in the final quarter! Nick Dal Santo (159)
produced his highest score of the year while Justin Westhoff revisited his early
season form with 152 SC points.
Here are my captaincy choices for round 18.
