Daniel Wells has returned from the bye in great form. His 100 against Gold Coast was backed up with 106 against Adelaide. To stretch it back a little further, in four of Wells' last five games, he has scored 98 or more.
After a season low of $383,400 at the conclusion of Round 7, Wells has increased by more than $30,000 and is in line for another increase this week.
Leigh Adams used a 26-disposal, 3-goal game to post his first century since Round 2 against Greater Western Sydney. It was Adams' second highest disposal count of the season, and his three goals were also a season high.
Much like Wells, Adams has come into some promising form over the past few weeks, with his last five games all yielding 17 possessions or more.
Lindsay Thomas put together a second consecutive quality outing for his 92-points. Out of his 15 possessions, 14 were kicks, which is what makes Thomas a valuable Dream Team player when he is on song. After only three 100-plus DT scores in the last three seasons, Thomas has already notched four so far in 2012.
Robbie Tarrant had a breakout game, terrorising the Adelaide defenders with four goals and 84 points. However, with only one other score over 84 in his career so far, it would be wise to tread carefully when it comes to Tarrant in your team.
Another 81-points to Nathan Grima saw his price rise by more than $30,000 to a new high of $361,100. A relatively low break-even means he should increase in price once more after Sunday's game against St Kilda.
Shaun Atley, a player who received special praise in Brad Scott's post-match press conference, had a career-high 89-points after 23 disposals and 6 marks. His run off half-back provided spark for North and as he becomes a more important part of the side, look for his DT numbers to balloon.
