THERE'S another half-gear Richmond superstar Dustin Martin can go to but he's tuning up nicely for finals and was a lock in my round 22 Team of the Week, brought to you by AccorHotels.

He was brilliant in a dominant performance as the Tigers beat Essendon, collecting 26 disposals and slotting four goals.

That he can still improve should scare the other finalists.

Melbourne ruckman Max Gawn was unlucky to miss out on selection, as was Western Bulldogs onballer Marcus Bontempelli.

Once again, Jake Lloyd was solid down back for Sydney, while Dane Rampe comprehensively beat Greater Western Sydney gun Jeremy Cameron. Rory Laird continued his ball-winning ways for Adelaide while it was no surprise to see Richmond backman Alex Rance star again. It seems Carlton veteran Kade Simpson isn't aging, while Jack Gunston was superb for Hawthorn as it scraped past St Kilda. This was a bit of a cheeky one, seeing as he spent most of the contest up forward, but I had to do it to squeeze everyone in and the swingman did play an important role down back late.

Over the past month, Taylor Adams has been in great form. Luke Parker stood up in a big game for Sydney, while Tim Kelly excelled as Geelong thumped Fremantle. The ruck performance of Brodie Grundy was massive for Collingwood, and Jack Steele kept Hawk Tom Mitchell quiet in the first half while winning plenty of his own football. Brisbane won the QClash and Dayne Beams was a huge reason that happened.

Devon Smith is a fair chance to make the Virgin Australia All Australian side. Sydney spearhead Lance Franklin was back to his best and won the match off his own boot. Martin helped Richmond overcome the Bombers, and he had help from Josh Caddy, whose contested marking was great last Friday. When he has chances in front of goal, he doesn't miss. For the Cats, Tom Hawkins finished with a bag of six. Meanwhile, Jack Lonie was the most dangerous forward on the ground as St Kilda narrowly lost to Hawthorn.

The Western Bulldogs midfield is building nicely and Josh Dunkley is a big reason. Anyone who racks up 46 disposals, as Matt Crouch did for Adelaide, is hard to leave out. James Harmes helped Melbourne go over and beat West Coast in a huge game. At North Melbourne, Jarrad Waite is good enough to go around again. He was important as the Roos made a late charge against the Crows.
