Emerging midfielders Clay Smith (92 points) and Mitch Wallis (85 points) were close behind the veterans in the Dream Team stakes, with their defensive pressure and a goal apiece lifting their numbers.
Smith’s ($286,800) career best 20 disposal and six marks saw him rack up the career high Dream Team result.
Second year recruit Mitch Wallis continued to rake in solid numbers with his 21 disposals, four marks, five clearances and four one percenters the highlight.
Coming in fifth in the Dream Team rankings this week was first year dynamo Tory Dickson with 19 possessions, one goal, five inside 50s and three goal assists - culminating in a 79 point score.
