Paul Johnson (11th game - also with West Coast)
At 0-3 the Demons premiership odds had ballooned out to $61, which didn't stop one punter having $1000 on them during the week.
Jared Rivers was controversially punished with a 50m penalty for a seemingly innocuous throw of the ball to his opponent after a free kick but his side recovered to win, with Adem Yze kicking his third goal late to seal victory.
