Hawthorn
Brown: 8 marks and 15 kicks, a better game for fantasy points than he usually provides.
Taylor: 12 possessions and 2 goals, he has been a big improver this year.
Crawford: 23 possessions and 3 frees for, one of the few Hawks with finals experience so he should produce again next week.
Birchall: He was reported, his stats were also down with 15 possessions and giving away 2 frees.
Lewis: 19 possessions and 5 tackles.
The Kangaroos finished in the top 4, the Bulldogs finished in the bottom 4, that was not expected to happen when predictions were made at the start of the year. Hale and Petrie combined for 17 marks, the Bulldogs were never going to have an answer for them.

Kangaroos
Harvey: If he received 3 votes from this game he could have the Brownlow, 27 possessions and 3 goals were good for fantasy points and getting seen by the umpires.
Petrie: 7 marks and 13 kicks, also had 2 goals.
Wells: 2 goals and 22 possessions, he is a player they need at his best for the finals so he might be a player to sign for the finals fantasy game.
Smith: 11 kicks and 13 handballs, it was a worry when he missed a game with an ankle injury but he was back at his best.
McIntosh: 13 kicks, 3 goals and 23 total hitouts, another big game from McIntosh.
Western Bulldogs
Johnson: 5 goals and 9 marks, it has been a big season from one of the smaller forwards.
Boyd: He increased his output when Cross and West were out, and has continued even with them back, Boyd had 28 possessions.
McDougall: The Bulldogs didn't give him a many games this season, maybe that changes next year after his 20 possessions, 5 marks and a goal here.
Harris: An amazing fantasy season as he marked many kicks from the opposition, he had 12 marks in this game and added 11 kicks and 10 handballs.
Robbins: Kicked 3 goals in his last AFL game.
Melbourne had a big win to finish off the year. 7 goals to 1 for Melbourne in the first quarter put them game away. Jamar provided one of the highlights, and if it had happened earlier in the game it might have been suspicious, there was a stoppage and Jamar won the ball and sent a long, and surprisingly precise, pass into the forward line, that is the Carlton forward line.

Johnstone: 35 kicks, 9 marks, 7 handballs and a goal, a big game without an opponent.

Carlton
Whitnall: 8 marks and 17 possessions, he had a good game for fantasy points.
