Active in GF loss
Bontempelli scored three goals and made 25 disposals (13 kicks, 12 handballs) during Saturday's 140-66 loss to Melbourne in the Grand Final.
ANALYSIS
A Brownlow contender for much of the year, Bontempelli struggled for consistency in possession over the final weeks of the season but still attempted to make up for it with three majors in the final game. He should still be proud of his efforts in 2021 with 26.8 disposals per game as captain and take more momentum into next season.

Listed in lineup
Bontempelli (knee) made the initial team sheet for Saturday's Preliminary Final against Port Adelaide.
ANALYSIS
Bontempelli had hurt his knee late into the last round against Brisbane but he's already in the next lineup as a rover for another prime-time matchup with the Power. He's failed to log over 30 disposals in three straight games, so keep this in mind when assessing fantasy value.

Hurts knee in win
Bontempelli suffered a knee injury and logged 29 disposals (16 kicks, 13 handballs) to go with seven marks made during Saturday's 79-78 win over Brisbane.
ANALYSIS
Bontempelli is usually one of the top disposal-getters for his club and that usually doesn't change even with an injury. His all-around performances haven't been as stellar as they were earlier in the season, and an injury won't help things out over the rest of the finals.

Scores in loss
Bontempelli scored one goal and one behind to go with 34 disposals (17 kicks, 17 handballs) during Sunday's 97-84 loss to Essendon in Round 21.
ANALYSIS
Bontempelli improved after a poor performance in the previous week against Adelaide to rank second behind Jack Macrae in fantasy points and total touches. He'll need to get back on track as the season winds down and the finals pick up, as his season has been exceptionally consistent until recently.
