Defenders
Back Pocket - Nathan Wilson (GWS)
Don't let his position on the ground fool you, Wilson was sensational as a two-way runner for the Giants, collecting 24 touches with seven inside 50s and a goal to compliment his six rebounds with 11 of his 24 touches intercepting an Eagles attack.
Full Back - Liam Jones (Carlton)
His influence in the defensive half is becoming more profound by the week. 16 one-percenters registered on the weekend while keeping Hawthorn skipper Jarryd Roughead to just one goal in a moral-boosting win for the Blues.
Back Pocket - Dane Rampe (Sydney)
Shutting Taylor Walker down at the Adelaide Oval is no easy task but that's exactly what Rampe did on Friday night which went a long way to Sydney stealing the four points. Aside from keeping Walker to just the one goal, he picked up 16 disposals and five rebounds of his own.
Docherty continued his outstanding 2017 season with 31 touches at a super impressive 93.5% efficiency while taking 15 marks (round high) and having eight score involvements as the Blues beat the Hawks for the first time in 15 attempts.
Centre Half Back - Steven May (Gold Coast)
Generally when your side loses the inside 50 count by 40, you expect the gun opposition forward to kick a few. Not on Saturday night, however, when May kept Joe Daniher to just the one major and 10 touches while claiming 25 touches and eight rebounds of his own.
Half Back - Lachie Whitfield (GWS)
Instrumental through the midfield, Whitfield finished with 31 touches (84% efficiency), 10 marks, three clearances and a goal for his hard work, gaining 676m in the process.
