5. INTERCHANGE
Luke Dunstan
In another instance of a dominant tagging player, Luke Dunstan was crucial is St Kilda's victory over the Roos. Keeping the bull Ben Cunnington quite all match, is a feat in itself.
He demonstrated an all-around performance, finishing with 26 disposals, 13 tackles and 7 clearances. This type of effort can often get overlooked, but Dunstan was in the Saints best and most impactful players on Saturday.

Dayne Zorko
Zorko played an impressive match against the Giants, just getting edged out but a few equally impressive performances for a starting position.
Don't let that take away how good Zorko was though, as he finished with 35 touches, 6 marks, 6 clearances, 7 inside 50s and 12 score involvements. He will also be expecting a call up from a few A-league clubs, after one of his 2 majors being this off the ground goal.
Jake Stringer
The package definitely delivered this weekend, showing that he can still be one of the most impactful players in the league on his day.
While he didn't stuff the stat sheet, his presence and ability to kick a goal when the Bombers need it cannot be undervalued. 3 goals, 12 touches and 7 score involvements show that whenever the Package touches the ball, good things generally happen.
Brandan Parfitt
In a close match sometimes a few players make the difference between winning and losing. Parfitt was one of those players who made a significant impact in the Cat's victory.

Ending the game with a team high 30 touches (12 contested), Parfitt also added 6 inside 50s, 8 score involvements and 5 clearances. While playing a vital role for his team, he just missed out on a starting spot in the Team of the Week.
