TOM ROCKLIFF was back to his old AFL Fantasy tricks against Adelaide in Showdown XLVI on Saturday night at Adelaide Oval.
Rockliff recorded the second-highest score in Round 8, amassing 149 points against the Crows.
The 29-year-old had 41 touches, six marks and six tackles in his dominant midfield display.
Jarrod Lienert was impressive on the half-back flank, scoring his first century since returning to the Port Adelaide side in Round 6.
Lienert scored 113 on Saturday night, up from his average of 69 so far this season.
The rebounding defender has a breakeven of 49 heading into this weekend’s clash with Gold Coast, and at a price of $491,000 he presents very good value.
Travis Boak continued his amazing Fantasy form, scoring his seventh triple-figure score in season 2019.
Boak finished with 113 points against Adelaide - just shy of his breakeven which meant his value dropped by $5,000.
The 30-year-old is still leading the competition after eight rounds.
In other games, Melbourne’s Clayton Oliver was the round-high scorer, amassing 161 against Gold Coast.
Collingwood’s Brodie Grundy (149) jumped up to second in the comp, after a dominant ruck game against Carlton on Saturday afternoon.
While Mitch Duncan and Tim Kelly had a field day against North Melbourne, each scoring in excess of 140.
