Each week join Roy from DT Talk as he dissects the Magpies performance in AFL Fantasyland on collingwoodfc.com.au. With hot players, trade advice and injury updates, Roy will provide all the important info on the men in the black and white.

Last Weeks’s Events

Last week I suggested it was the right time to pick up Steele Sidebottom and he didn’t let anybody down after collecting 31 touches and taking nine marks on his way to a team high 131. After being unfairly criticised by commentators after his first half performance, Dane Swan showed nothing but class in the second half, finishing the game with 32 touches and two goals for 124. Popular captain Scott Pendlebury overcame a slow first half to score a solid 94.

On The Radar

Jack Crisp is flying under the radar and looks a great unique pick as he is only owned by 1.7 per cent of the competition. He holds the handy flexibility of forward/midfield status and his three game average of 96 suggest he will have no trouble reaching his break-even of 74.

Top 5 Scorers

  • Steele Sidebottom (MID, $598,000) 131
  • Dane Swan (FWD/MID, $571,000) 124
  • Jamie Elliot (FWD, $433,000) 120
  • Jack Crisp (FWD/MID, $477,000) 108
  • Brodie Grundy (RUC, $467,000) 98

What’s Coming Up?

Last time the Pies met the Demons it was The Pig Dane Swan leading the way with 114, while Pendlebury looks set to continue his good season after having 26 touches and 100 in the last encounter.
