Jamar 14th in hitouts is pretty interesting, given he's only played a couple of games!

Wow, Jamar! Astonishing. IMO he's playing close to AA form.

Its a great sign that we are in the top ten in Disposals,kicks, handballs and marks.

A few more marks and Goals from the big Russian and I agree, he will be back in AA contention

Its been a long time since Melb players were in these best of lists at all.

Rejoice...

Cool stats.

I'm getting seduced by this team again.

Will beat the Pies on Monday.....there, I said it.

Wow, Jamar! Astonishing. IMO he's playing close to AA form.

Needs to do more around the ground before he'll be in contention for AA honours. Taking some marks would help. But there's no doubt the team has improved immensely since his return.

I would have thought our best chances for AA this year would be Nathan Jones, Dom Tyson and possibly Lynden Dunn.
