Dale went for 141 in WB's 12-point away loss to Carlton — he was the standout in a team described as otherwise dismal, dominating off half-back for the fourth consecutive ton (113, 141, 128, 141). At $571.1k with a 105.7 average and a BE of 84, the price has largely caught up but he keeps posting elite counter-cyclical scores in losing causes. The community has him all over R10 POTY ballots. Hold with conviction and captain freely — he's one of the best DEFs in the competition right now.
