Jacob Farrell – Central Coast Mariners
- Price: $464K
- Ownership: 10%
- Average points: 10.3
Jacob Farrell’s 24-point haul in Round 11 helped the young Mariners full-back jump to 113 points for the season – the most of any defender league-wide. Farrell has scored more than 20 points on two occasions in the last four games as he made his way past a trio of Wanderers to the top of the defensive leaderboard.
Oliver Sail – Wellington Phoenix
- Price: $241K
- Ownership: 11%
- Average points: 5.1
Oliver Sail comes into Round 11 as a player in form; his 21 points earned against Sydney FC was the first time the ‘Nix keeper had scored more than 10 points in a single gameweek this season, with his late heroics in a chaotic 1-0 win ensuring he led all keepers thorough the round in points scoring.
Sail and the Phoenix now travel to Queensland to meet a Brisbane Roar side which has scored just 10 goals in 11 games this season.
Ulises Davila – Macarthur FC
- Price: $398K
- Ownership: 16%
- Average: 7.6
Ulises Davila has fired up the engines in recent weeks, heading into Round 11 with the highest three-game points average (13.7) of any midfielder in the game. The Macarthur captain looks to have put an early-season hamstring injury behind him, registering 20 and 17-point hauls in two of his last three outings.
Davila hit the back of the net in a 2-0 Macarthur win over Newcastle last time out; now, his side face the in-form Mariners on Friday night.
Cameron Cook – Perth Glory
- Price: $261K
- Ownership: 0%
- Average: 9.6
Cameron Cook has recently dislodged Liam Reddy as Perth Glory’s No.1, and has helped his side achieve back-to-back home wins at Macedonia Park as a result. Cook will hope to keep his spot in the starting XI when taking on the out-of-form Sydney FC at home on Saturday night.
Cook earned 18 points across those two fixtures, keeping the club’s first A-League Men clean sheet of the season in a 1-0 win over Western Sydney on January 6 before backing up with a solid performance in a 2-1 win over the Roar.
Kai Trewin – Brisbane Roar
- Price: $304K
- Ownership: 4%
- Average points: 6.9
Kai Trewin has recorded a three-round average of 8.3 points as the versatile Brisbane Roar youngster begins to show is value as a fantasy asset. Trewin recorded 14 points in Round 11, and is relishing a role in the middle of the park in front of a back three. Listed as a defender, Trewin will hope to bank clean sheet points this weekend as the Roar host a Phoenix side without suspended attacking midfielder Bozhidar Kraev.
