    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Round 5 saw some familiar names regaining confidence and a bit of form. They were led by Dangerfield who scored a career high 192 SC points from 33 disposals and 5 goals. Ablett continued his great season with 161 whilst Sidebottom scored the third highest score for the round with 155. Marc Murphy managed his highest score since 2012 with 153 whilst Tom Hawkins continued his great run against Hawthorn with five goals and 148 SC points. The rest of the top ten were Jamie Elliott with 145, Josh P. Kennedy with 144, Steve Johnson with 141 and Leigh Montagna and Nathan Jones (both with 140).

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Here are the numbers for Round 6 &amp;hellip;
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]COLLINGWOOD v. ESSENDON
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Recent game: In Round 19 last year, Collingwood comfortably accounted for Essendon 133 to 54. Sidebottom top scored with 132 whilst Luke Ball (118) and Watson (115), who were both playing on each other, were next best. In a very even performance, 13 Collingwood players scored over 90 (whilst only 3 Essendon players could do the same).

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Note: Unbelievable recent record against Essendon. Three scores over 170 against them since 2011. Most recently played head to head against Stanton. He started this season slowly with three scores below 90 but has scored 116 and 122 in his two most recent games.

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Note: Fantastic recent record against Essendon but only scored 105 most recently against them whilst tagged by Hocking (which was his lowest score against Essendon since 2009). Since 2009, every other score was 120 SC points or more. (He also scored 170 against the Bombers in 2009 and 167 against them in 2008). He is averaging 136 for the season with a low score of 115 but a high score of 182.

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Note: Relatively poor record against Collingwood with only two scores over 120 since 2010. He most recently played head to head with Ball (with Macaffer being sent to tag Heppell). He started the season with a massive 157 but has only averaged 98 in the four games since (with a high score of 113).

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Recent game: At the &amp;lsquo;Gabba in Round 19 last year, Brisbane ran out winners 108 to 77. Rockliff was magnificent with 166 from 39 disposals and he was followed by Montagna with 128 and Redden with 126. Jones tagged Rich and limited him to 19 touches (96 SC points) whilst Raines tagged Steven who picked up 17 touches (98 SC points). Riewoldt had a poor game against Patfull and finished with 71 SC points.

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Note: Huge score against St Kilda most recently which was helped by his 8 tackles.

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Note: Strange record against Port Adelaide with three scores under 100 but five scores over 125 since 2008.

He had his first sub-100 score for the season against Hawthorn last week (tagged by Langford and scoring 83) but had averaged 140 in the first four games of the season.

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Note: Poor record against Port Adelaide with only three scores over 100 in his past six games against them. He is in the best form of his career averaging 126 for the season with scores of 116, 145, 79, 150 and 141.
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]
    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;]In my opinion, Ablett against the Giants is a lock. As shown by last week's performance, the Giants don't really have an effective tagger (Coniglio tagged&amp;rdquo; Dangerfield last week &amp;hellip;) and Ablett is in red hot form so far this season. Following Ablett, Pendlebury (vice captain for the early Friday game) and Selwood are the next best options. Rockliff playing St Kilda in Wellington would be a nice smokey choice. Another smokey would be an in form Riewoldt against a struggling Brisbane team.

    <p style='margin-bottom: 0pt; background: #fcfcfc;][span style='color: #444444;]Good luck all!
