From snow falling in Canberra, to Josh Bruce's cool finish under pressure, Round 21 had it all. Here are the players that dominated last weekend.

Jonathan Ceglar (Hawthorn)
With the Hawks’ regular ruckman Ben McEvoy sidelined, Ceglar flourished as Hawthorn’s main man on Friday night, winning the ruck battle against the Giants' two big men, Dawson Simpson and Shane Mumford. Ceglar had 16 touches, a season-high eight clearances and 35 hitouts in the Hawks’ big win.
Nat Fyfe (Fremantle)
A performance fit for a Brownlow medallist? Fyfe’s efforts on Sunday did nothing but enhance his claim for a second medal, as the Fremantle captain almost single-handedly led his side to a win over the Saints. While the Dockers eventually fell short, Fyfe dominated, recording 35 possessions (16 contested), seven clearances, five marks, 11 inside 50s and two goals to round off a best-on-ground performance.
Josh Dunkley (Western Bulldogs)
Has been one of the standout improvers this season and continued his meteoric rise into one of the league’s elite midfielders with another standout performance on the weekend. Dunkley dominated against a lacklustre Essendon midfielder, tearing up the Bombers’ midfield with 22 out of his 39 disposals being contested. The Dogs' midfielder also took four marks, laid three tackles, had six clearances, eight score involvements, and topped off his monumental effort with a goal.
