Not many can escape the annoying clutches of Fremantle tagger Ryan Crowley.

 

Crowley is a menace to all Fantasy teams and his latest victim was Geelong skipper Joel Selwood [MID, $454,500].

 

Selwood managed just 38 points (a season low) against the Dockers last Saturday night.

 

Despite a rough night, the sight of Hawthorn this weekend is sure to get Selwood's competitive juices flowing.

 

So part ways with the Cats star at your own peril.

 

Western Bulldogs captain and Fantasy favourite Matthew Boyd [MID, $537,800] has been ruled out for four weeks with a fractured cheekbone.

 

The news is disturbing for fantasy coaches who rely on the ultra-consistent Boyd every week.

 

Gold Coast skipper Gary Ablett [MID, $598,100] is a little more expensive but the perfect option to replace Boyd's scoring power.

 

It's a tough gig outpointing your captain, but it's especially difficult if your skipper is named Gary Ablett.

 

But that's what Gold Coast midfielder Dion Prestia [MID, $507,700] achieved against the Crows last weekend.

 

Prestia amassed 42 possessions to finish with the highest fantasy score of the round (157).

 

The young Sun is finally healthy and prospering in a rapidly developing team.

 

Brad Crouch [MID, $277,200] was a popular selection in most AFL Fantasy teams after an impressive NAB Cup campaign.

 

But through the early part of the season, the mini-draft pick found himself in and out of the side and lacked the continuity to be a fantasy starter.

 

Crouch's score of 121 points against Gold Coast is a promising sign for a talented young player who is on the rise.

 

His NAB AFL Rising Star nomination is a clear indication of his talent and Crouch could be a viable addition to your fantasy midfield.

 

Paul Seedsman [MID, $405,200] has steadily become an important member of Collingwood's side.

 

Seedsman was the second highest scoring player last round, behind Prestia, finishing with 148 fantasy points against Port Adelaide at AAMI Stadium.

 

The 21-year-old's dashing run from defence has long been the feature of his game, but if his 34-possession effort against the Power is anything to go by then he should become a real fantasy consideration.
