Last Week’s Events
Dayne Beams backup up his outstanding game last week with another huge performance, collecting 29 possessions, taking nine marks and kicking an impressive three goals on his way to a team high 123. As predicted last week, Stefan Martin continued his great form with 38 hit outs and 116. Allen Christensen had his best game since moving to the Lions with 31 possessions and 111.
On The Radar
Keep an eyeon Pearce Hanley after his return on the weekend. He was outstanding in the first half, before understandably slowing down later in the game. He took his game to the next level last season and will be one to watch once he returns to full fitness. He finished the game with 21 possessions, six marks and five tackles.

What’s Coming Up?
Last time the Lions met the Dogs, Jack Redden and Pearce Hanley were on fire, scoring 128 and 124 respectively. Be wary of Dayne Zorko copping a tag after he was held to 76 last time they met, although the man in form Dayne Beams would have to be the short priced favorite to receive it this week.
