Nice game, Mike! Possible transcription error on the last numbers round -- did you intend to add 5 at the end?

1. CLINKER
2. ROUNDEST
3. 857 = (10 + 1)*75 + 25 + 7
4. ISLANDER
5. HERNIA
6. 831 = (9 + 7)*(50 + 2) - 1
7. IMAGE
8. 135 = 3*5*9
9. [N/A -- chosen, but the answer is STARLIGHT]

Not sure what I was thinking Geoff for round 8. But looking at it again, the obvious similar solution would have been 6*25 -5*3=135.
