ARE THE DONS THE BEST AT PLAYING SOMEONE INTO FORM?

In future, be wary of picking a player up on the back of one good game, especially if that game came against the Dons. While Essendon have had a better year than expected, the are one of the best teams at playing a player into form. Look at the following to demonstrate.

Rd 1 vs ADE- Scott Thompson 126
Rd 2 vs FRE- Matthew Pavlich 113
Rd 3 vs CAR- Brendan Fevola 144
Rd 4 vs STK- Lenny Hayes 116
Rd 5 vs COL- Heath Shaw 137
Rd 6 vs HAW- Lance Franklin 136
Rd 7 vs KAN- Brent Harvey 103
Rd 8 vs BRL- Troy Selwood 139
Rd 9 vs RIC- Brett Deledio 107
Rd 10 vs SYD- Brett Kirk 123
Rd 11 vs WCE- Matt Rosa 129
Rd 12 vs PTA- Domenic Cassisi 133


Alternatively, the reverse of this is, it may be a good decision to play one of your inconsistent, but potential to score big players as captain when up against them in the future.
