Golden Stubby – Round 8

With some great scores this week, there were some guys who stepped in to boost our scores to make us feel a lot better about ourselves in Round 8.

The nominees, as sent through to me (@WarnieDT) on Twitter are:

Nick Vlastuin – 131

Can this man go back to back? 131 points thanks to 19 kicks (great DTing) among his 25 possessions and a massive 19 marks. Awesome work by the little ginger.

Brandon Ellis – 155

Since ditching the vest, Ellis has gone 86, 85, 128 and now 155. Quite possibly the best pick up of the year who ended up being a downgrade from one of our Portlets a few weeks ago. Nice get if you got on!

Dean Terlich – 120

With Bryce Gibbs still not back, Heath Shaw suspended and other issues around the place, Terlich may have ended up on a few grounds this week. His scoring in the Sunday arvo game was great!

Sam Dwyer – 104

After plenty of FMDT’s going on when Steve Johnson being a late withdrawal, those who had Sam Dwyer as his emergency would have loved watching his game. He has a few more dollars to ear before cashing him in!

Gary Ablett – 135

Calvin put him as his number one pick for this week… and this was why! 135 points. Enough said. Great (realistic) Captain pick.

Honorable mentions: Nat Fyfe and Scott Pendlebury were the only other names to come through! True story! There were some other guys worthy of a mention, but you can do that in the comments.
