For those who like to look a little left field – consider these two little gems

Max Holmes v Gold Coast @ GMHBA Stadium – FRIDAY

Was getting 65% of the CBAs… but only had 16% last week and his scores of 110, 88 and 110 show this uncertainty in his role. Holmes usually cashes in against the Suns with previous scores of 108, 146 and 106… and I expect him to again on Friday night.

I reckon, taking Dawson’s VC score will suffice.

Another week probably another force trade with Archie Roberts heading into his bye and he’ll loose cash as well. Not good.
