Excellent in win
Broad recorded 25 disposals (20 kicks, five handballs) and made 11 tackles during Friday's 77-55 win over the Western Bulldogs.
ANALYSIS
Broad topped 100 fantasy points for the first time this season by logging over 20 disposals and recording double-digit marks. this kind of performance isn't likely to happen unless facing as dominant a midfield as Western have, so be careful when considering Broad outside of high-profile matchups with other top teams.
