Team-first gems: Your club's selfless warriors

RICHMOND

One-percenters: Alex Rance (154). AFL rank (first): It's no wonder the All Australian full back's signature was so sought after with his never-say-die attitude making him a huge asset to Richmond's defence.

Tackles: Shaun Grigg (85). AFL rank (51st): The Tigers aren't a high tackling side, but the former Blue is having a career-best season when it comes to wrapping up opponents.

Contested possessions: Trent Cotchin (240). AFL rank (10th): Again, the skipper leads the Tigers in this area and is on track to surpass his previous best of 273 with an average of over 12 per game.

Score involvements (ave. per game): Brett Deledio (8.0). AFL rank (sixth): The move to place Deledio in the forward line more in recent years has paid off, with the 28-year-old also their second highest goal-scorer.

Score assists (total): Jack Riewoldt (27). AFL rank (eq. 14th): Much has been made about Riewoldt's selflessness around goal and it shows here with his willingness to share things around.

Reckon Newman should be here as best clubman and Morris as fastest runner to the bench

What does it say about our team when one of our softest is our best tackler? 
Got to hand it to the Grigg for turning himself around to being moderately useful now.
