This weeks footy was a breath of fresh air, free flowing and attacking football showed off just why the teams who made finals got there.
Four of the best games of the season made week one of the finals an exhilarating and energy sapping ride.
For none more so than the players, they had to give their all to put on such an incredible display, but which players stood above the rest? Which players stood up when it counted?
Here's our top ten players of the week.
1. Lachie Neale (Brisbane)
Unreal to think Neale didn't touch the pill in the first quarter, he didn't even get close to it. He wasn't tagged, he just couldn't get near the thing. But as all great players do he recovered and did so in a big way.
Lachie Neale ended up with 19 disposals and a goal 🔥 https://t.co/2t4gt5yuSB

Neale went on to have 19 disposals but his influence was immeasurable, his goal from 50 metres out was a huge moment and his willingness to get into the game and continue to back himself shows the sign of a true champion, the trait of dare we say it... a Brownlow Medalist.
