Jack Steele’s 107 wasn’t a huge bust last week but for those owners, we certainly wanted more. If you took on the VC and got Macrae’s 120 – well done. But the rules are still the same, keep chasing those green dots. Today I have covered my top-10 players in the table along with a detailed video outlining my picks plus a a few others that failed to make the list. Sit back… have a listen and enjoy with our fingers crossed we have a huge round with some massive numbers from our captain.

---|---|---|---|
1. Touk Miller | @ Metricon SAT 8:00pm | 135 last year against the Demons and averaged 127 at home in 2021 | As we know, the Demons give up plenty of points to midfielders. Smith (154) and Macrae (120) were two of the six Dogs to hit 100 last week against them. |
2. Christian Petracca | @ Metricon SAT 8:00pm | 136 on the Suns last year and coming off 142 from round one. | Beast-mode activated. No one could stop CP last year and it appears to be the same story again in 2022. |
3. Clayton Oliver | @ Metricon SAT 8:00pm | 110 last year against the Suns and had 102 last week. | In two of Oliver’s last four games against the Suns he has hit 150+. This will be a smashing and the Dees will feast. |
4. Jack Steele | @ Optus SUN 6:20pm | 107 last week and 134 against the Dockers last year. | 107 wasn’t enough last week, but that was because of a 14pt third term. He was going at 30pts a quarter which is his norm. |
5. Jack Macrae | @ Marvel THURS 7:20pm | 120 last week and has hit 100+ in all of his 10 games v Carlton | Ticks all the boxes here but Carlton are tough only allowing one Tiger to hit 80+ last week. Shouldn’t bother Jack. |
6. Ollie Wines | @ AO SAT 7:40pm | 151 last year on the Hawks and is coming off 102 | North had 4x100+ on the Hawks last week and Wines is sure to get amongst that. Could we see another 150? |
7. Josh Kelly | @ MCG SUN 3:20pm | 141, 115 and 149 are his last efforts v Richmond. | Carlton managed 4x100+ scores on the Tigers last week and Kelly was flying this pre-season despite 96 last week. |
8. Lachie Neale | @ Marvel SAT 4:35pm | 118 last week and 120, 103 and 119 in last games v Ess | Plays one of his favourite teams here and even though his record isn’t great at Marvel, he’ll be fine. |
9. Aaron Hall | @ Marvel SUN 1:10pm | 125 last week and averaged 121 at Marvel last season. | No hammy issues last week as Hall hit 125 with 11m. He only had 38 in the last half but looked back to his best. |
10. Zach Merrett | @ Marvel SAT 4:35pm | 119 last week and had 105 on the Lions last year | Merrett averages 112 in his last three under the roof and will continue his round one form here with another 100+ score. |
