DT Round 18 Movers & Shakers

Sorry for being a bit late today with all the latest updates folks. Been at a theme park today, with heaps of rollercoasters and all that, those places aren't bad. Anyway, onto the AFL footy news with all the price fluctuations, changes and, of course, the bargains ahead of the DT finals. Good luck with your finals by the way folks. Hopefully the wrap-up gives you a helping hand.

For Carlton, gun skipper Chris Judd is moving into nice value down $14k to $355k despite a score of 82 on the weekend. He's got a BE next week of 127 so he's sliding and represents decent value.

Also from Carltonland, ruck Matt Kreuzer (59) slides $6k to $265k which is okay if you're still after a ruckman in the wake of Coxy's injury. Also def Andrew Carrazzo (70) is down $14k to a nice $338k.

For North Melbourne, midfielder/forward Brent Harvey is back from injury and on the climb up $20k to $370k after a score of 111. That's still reasonable value, but with a BE of 86 you'll probably need to act fast.

Others worth note from Arden Street, are ruck Drew Petrie (105) who's up $4k to an affordable $307k, while mid Liam Anthony (88) is a gun up $18k to $270k.

For the Western Bulldogs, young midfielder Callan Ward is a player I like, and he's at decent value following a score of 95. Ward is up $3k to $265k which I like and if you need to do some business before the finals, he's an option to generate some cash.

Staying at the Kennel, Brownlow Medallist Adam Cooney (100) is well-priced down $11k to $370k, while def Lindsay Gilbee (57) is down $18k to a juicy $296k.

For Fremantle, ruckman Aaron Sandilands is on the slide a bit and in great value for those looking trade out big Coxy. Sandilands (86) is down $20k to a nice $390k with a BE of 106 next week.

Also from Freo, def Paul Duffield (44) is on the slide big-time down $25k to $338k, while fwd Matty Pavlich (120) is still pretty good value up $3k to $355k with a BE of 24 next week.

For Geelong, premium midfielder Jimmy Bartel is down into prime value and it won't get better folks. Bartel (121) is down $17k to an extremely affordable $379k with a BE of 84 next week. Get on board.

Others Cats worth a mention include mid Joel Corey (101) still down $9k to $390k and mid Joel Selwood (104) who has left the port up $35k to $442k.

For Adelaide, midfielder Scott Thompson is sliding into delicious value at the moment. Thompson posted 74 on the weekend and is down $21k to $354k. Not bad.

Also, ruck/fwd Kurt Tippett (88) is down $15k to $308k which ain't bad value for a big guy averaging 75, while mid/fwd Simon Goodwin (124) has also left the dock up $28k to $357k.

For St Kilda, another gun midfielder who's priming into value is Sainter Lenny Hayes who is down on form lately. Hayes scored 71 on the weekend to drop $6k to $401k with a BE of 147 next week. Monitor him, but I'd back him to turn it around soon.

Other Saints worth a look are fwd/ruck Justin Koschitzke (78) down $18k to $252k, while mid Farren Ray (112) is up a staggering $36k to $388k.

For Sydney, I quite like the performance of midfield Luke Ablett on the weekend and if there's more of that, I fancy him at a cheap price. Ablett scored 88 on the weekend and is up $10k to $209k which is very low. Wait and see.

Also from the Swannies, gun fwd Ryan O'Keefe (73) is sliding down $11k to $455k with a huge BE next week, while Brett Kirk (58) is in woeful form down $22k to $313k.

For Collingwood, superstar forward Alan Didak should be monitored as he's on the slide at the moment. Didak scored 103 on the weekend yet dropped $32k to an affordable $394k with a BE of 112 next week. Perhaps make your move now.

Others from Victoria Park, include Heath Shaw (75) up $6k to an affordable $347k and the Dane Swan-$500k-watch continues as he posted 122 yet goes up just $500 to $499,400. So close!

For the Brisbane Lions, defender Josh Drummond is sliding into value after an injury-affected run. Drummond posted just 68 on the weekend and is down $15k to an affordable $294k.

Also from up north, fwd Jon Brown (130) is booming up $17k to $413k, while mid Luke Power (83) is sliding down $27k to $357k.

For Richmond, keep your eye on forward Nathan Brown as he's lurking into wonderful value. Brown scored 94 on the weekend and is down $15k to $315k with a BE of 89 next week. Monitor that one.

Staying at Punt Road, def Chris Newman (62) is good value down $7k to $322k with a big BE, while fwd Brett Deledio (108) is in good form up $4k to a reasonable $354k.

For Melbourne, I spoke about midfielder James McDonald here a few weeks ago, but he's on the up and still cheapish. McDonald posted 124 on the weekend so is up $19k to a very affordable $279k.

Also from the Dees, mid Cam Bruce (85) is down a big $24k to $360k, while fwd Aaron Davey (82) ain't bad value down $4k to $323k.

For Port Adelaide, midfielder Travis Boak is nice value after a few weeks battling a knee problem. Boak posted 119 on the weekend yet is up just $800 to a very very juicy price of $324k with a BE of 57 next week. Get on.

Also from Port, Shaun Burgoyne (109) ain't bad down $18k to $323k while young fwd Nick Salter (79) is about to burst his bubble at $122k with a BE of -43 next week. Not bad if you're after a cheap forward.

For Hawthorn, forward Cyril Rioli remains one of the DT bargains at the moment. Mr Delicious posted a score of 75 this week and is up $11k to an extremely affordable $257k. With a BE of 38 next week, get on.

Lance Franklin's hot form continues with a score of 93 up $25k to $338k, while def Luke Hodge (89) drops $100 to $352k and he's floating around there.

For West Coast, I don't mind the look of forward Mark LeCras at the moment. LeCras scored 120 on the weekend and is up $9k to $274k with a BE of 21 next week. That's a good price.

Also from the Coasters, mid Matt Priddis (101) is down $6k to a cheap $352k, while young mid Tom Swift (87) impresses up $26k to $151k with a negative BE next week. Good if you've got him.

For Essendon, midfielder Jobe Watson is my value pick of the week. Watson scored 121 on the weekend after a few injury-interrupted weeks but he's back on track, but still well-priced. Watson is down $5k to a juicy $302k and with a BE of 50 it won't last.

Others from Windy Hill worth a mention are fwd Angus Monfries (91) who is down $1k to an affordable $298k, while fwd Scotty Lucas (41) slides bigtime down $32k to $282k.
