Warnie from The Traders, AFL.com.au’s NAB AFL Fantasy experts, will be taking a look at the Hawks each week exclusive to hawthornfc.com.au.

Last Week

It was a Fantasy whitewash on Friday night with the Hawks scoring 1910 points combined while the Blues finished on 1210.

Six goals helped Jack Gunston to a thumping score of 161. Luke Hodge’s 32 disposals took him to 140 points taking his four game average to 135.25.

Eight Hawks topped the ton with a further seven players scoring over 70 points.

Ruckman Ben McEvoy finished on 105 adding to his 111 and 116 in his previous two games since returning from the VFL. He added $35K to his price and at $404,000 he is still at a good price as his breakeven is 24.

Top 5 Scorers v Carlton

  • 161 – Jack Gunston (FWD, $474,000)
  • 140 – Luke Hodge (DEF/MID, $610,000)
  • 124 – Sam Mitchell (MID, $558,000)
  • 112 – Josh Gibson (DEF, $458,000)
  • 111 – Jordan Lewis (MID, $554,000)

On The Radar

The third and final round of dual position additions rolled out earlier this week and Matt Suckling is now available as a DEF/FWD.

The left-footer has added forward status due to the time spent in the front half of the ground making an impact on the scoreboard.

A couple of green vests brought his price down but scores of 112, 72 and 105 in the last three weeks show that he is returning to form and at $417,000 is at a tasty price and adds value with his new versatility as a dual position player.

What’s Coming Up

Last weekend Liz from Queensland won $10,000 in NAB AFL Fantast Match Day by picking a team that scored over 1010 points. Her key to winning was giving the captaincy to Jack Gunston.

This Friday night’s game is another Match Day game and if you’re looking for a good captain option, consider Sam Mitchell who scored 142 last time the Hawks played the Tigers. Ben McEvoy (119) and Luke Hodge (115) also posted big scores.
