For mine in order

Houli - best game he has played
Martin
Prestia - his first half was brilliant
Rance
Graham
Edwards - see Houli

1. Dusty ... It's not just what he does but he attracts 2-3 opponents which opens up space for others.
2. Houli .... Best game he's played for us as WP said. Solid defensive marks and continually generated rebound for us. Gone are the brainfades.
3. Prestia .... Our 5th wheel behind the Big 4. Huge finals series.
4. Rance ..... Enough said.
5. Edwards .... Continually cleanly won the ball in traffic and drove it forward.
6. Cotch ..... selfless team game on top of winning the footy. Showed why he's our captain this finals series.

7. Lambert .... Has a Tiger in the tank. Just runs and runs. His game has improved to another level since midway through the season and has gone up again during the finals.
8. Grimes .... Importantly kept Betts quiet.
9. Jack  .... Would be in the top 6 if he had kicked straight early. That massive grab after the Crows kicked the first two seem to settle the whole team down.
10. Graham .... Ice cool. 3 goals that never looked like missing. Then shut down Sloane after half-time. Amazing for a 5th-gamer.
