Plus Mclean who is ranked 18th for tackles in spite of playing just 6 games.

Walker yes, but not necessarily Thornton & O'hAilpin. They contest too much in the air for them not to have a lowish tackle count.

Setanta definitely gave chase, but lacked his usual explosiveness in the second half of the season.

He's up there when you get the averages, Ellard and Hadley too.

Coz footy's simple and they all know better than the coach.

I've got no problem with Ratten or his stats. Some stats are overrated like cheap kicks and marks from over possessing the footy but Eddie Betts' 41 goals and 25 assists shoots all the Eddie haters arguments to flames.

..Eggy Betts does alot of work, not just kicking goals.. ..past few seasons he's worked v.hard in the F50.. ..goal kicking accuracy has been down this season, otherwise he'd have over 50 goals for sure..

Betts has had an awesome year leading by a mile with 66 goals contributed.

6th highest goal contributor in the AFL this season.

Rank Player Team Games Goals Contributed for Last Game Total
1 Barry Hall Western Bulldogs 19 3 v Geelong, Round 20 79
2 Jack Riewoldt Richmond 20 2 v Carlton, Round 20 75
3 Steve Johnson Geelong 17 7 v Western Bulldogs, Round 20 74
4 Mark Lecras West Coast 19 0 v Port Adelaide, Round 20 69
5 Matthew Pavlich Fremantle 20 0 v Sydney, Round 20 67
6 Eddie Betts Carlton 20 5 v Richmond, Round 20 66

Looks like a pretty good All-Australian forward line.
