Last Week’s Events
The highly anticipated ‘Return of the Pig’ (Tom Rockliff) didn’t let anybody down, dominating upon his return with 27 touches and an impressive 11 tackles on his way to a game high 128. He was well supported by fellow stars Dayne Zorko and Dayne Beams who combined for five goals while scoring 125 apiece. It was fantastic to see Pearce Hanley back to his best scoring 124 from 33 touches.
On The Radar
Assuming everybody jumped on Rocky last week, Pearce Hanley looks ripe for the picking. He was in outstanding form on the weekend and is a bargain at $506,000, given that he has dropped 52K since the start of the year. He has an achievable break-even of 98 points coming into his game against the Demons and is an ideal selection if you are on the hunt for a unique pick as he is owned by just .23 per cent of the competition.

What’s Coming Up?
Last time the Lions met the Dees, Stefan Martin had a great game with 114, so look for him to have a big game upon return from suspension. Tom Rockliff collected 32 touches that day and scored 110, while the man on the radar Hanley, should continue his good form after scoring 102 that day.
