Nightcliff’s Shaun Wilson was only one disposal off the top with 31, 16 kicks and 14 handballs, acting as another key distributor against the Bombers, with five marks, three tackles and eight clearances.

Despite the heavy loss Tiwi had a man of their own in touching distance of the top in Nicholas Hooker who put in a dynamic display finishing with 30 disposals (28 kicks and two handballs).

Rounding out the top five was Palmerston’s Eric Guthrie who has been one of the shining lights at the Magpies this year and despite the loss to Buffaloes finished with 29 disposals including 22 kicks and seven handballs.
