In last weeks AFL record which youve clearly read.

Jason Gram in my opinion. One of the better Half backs in the game right now and is living up and filling the shoes of another great player, Austinn Jones.

Nathon Carrol would be my next pick.

Nathan Carroll or Patrick Bowden. Out of those on your list, probably Watson.

many do, but i dont honestly rate gram as a player, he wishes he could use the ball like someone like mcleod does, and he tries to, but to often he runs to far, draws an opponent for too long...and turns it over. or he bombs it to good players in bad positions, hence making him look good when they do the impossible

id have to say Carroll, but obviously i like Pettifer and hes come a long way. Fev has transformed himself from trade bait to elite forward so i think they both should be up there.

So you reckon Dane Swan is a cheap stat stuffing midfielder? Whatever...

i agree. always gets them on halfback

jobe watson.. used to be fat and slow lost weight now dominates in stats for the dons

 

[TizzaBlues]

Jobe has worked so hard to improve over the preseason losing those 8kgs and has developed a tremendous nack of finding the ball and using it well.

Swan, Goddard and Grammy are the others.
Swan finds a heap of the ball after nearly being delisted.
Goddard is finally filling his potential.
Gram is the ultimate replacement for Jones after struggling to get a game. I thought that after the article in the age on the weekend more people would be voting for grammy.

I don't know all of the players you've listed but I assume it's one from each team. If so I would say Massie has improved more this season than any other Crow. I didn't rate him and questioned his position on the list but he has proven me wrong (again) and I even picked him up in my DT.

Having said that I would say J McDonald and Watson are the biggest improvers from what they've done in previous seasons.
