Chris DAWES
#6
Age: 31 |
Games: 121 | Born: May 16, 2021 |
Height: 193 |
Weight: 104 |
Position: FWD |
2016 Digest: Has now played 44 games at Melbourne since crossing from Collingwood but has managed only 43 goals – a poor return for a key forward on a good salary. Had his fair share of injury niggles though, including a calf over summer.
2016 NAB Cup: His troublesome calf flared prior to NAB Challenge and he is expected to be sidelined until Round 4.

5 | Calf. | ||
6 | Syd | Unsighted until final term when he started to get his hands on ball. | 3 |

12 | Geel | Presented well from half forward in absence of Hogan. Good first half. | 5 |

4 | Carl | Stats modest but provided a target and kicked two long set-shot goals. | 4 |

7 | Adel | Back to his bullocking best with three goals and four inside-50s. | 8 |

11 | Suspended. | ||
12 | Coll | Battled hard against his old team but Frost was amazing closing him down. | 4 |
13 | Ess | Continued to present at half forward but wasn’t able to hit the scoreboard. | 4 |
14 | NM | Kicked three goals and provided a target inside 50 but Thompson got a lot of it. | 6 |

GF |
2012 Season
Played for : Collingwood
1 | Haw | Didn’t kick a goal and failed to get the ball in dangerous spots. | 3 |
2 | Rich | Picked up by Grimes. Worked hard in packs to generate handball. | 4 |
3 | Carl | One good moment (a nice goal) in three rounds of footy to date. | 3 |
4 | Port | Kicked 1.1 from 15 disposals in slightly improved effort. Can still do better. | 4 |
5 | Ess | Conditions didn’t suit. Form must be a concern to the coach. | 2 |
6 | WB | Still quite out of sorts in what’s got to be a concern for the coach. | 3 |
8 | Geel | Again showcased lack of awareness or footy smarts. Couple of good marks. | 4 |
9 | Adel | Had Talia as his opponent and couldn’t shake him. | 3 |
10 | GCS | Started OK but failed to go on with it. Didn’t kick a goal and never dangerous. | 3 |
11 | Melb | Got a bit of footy but zero impact. Bronx cheers late. | 2 |
13 | WCE | OK early then his influence diminished but he did keep Glass occupied. | 4 |
14 | Frem | Three goals, all from unconventional means. Two when game all over. | 5 |
15 | Carl | Out-of-form forward’s horror run continued. Coach has to make a call. | 2 |
16 | Geel | Two goals as Tarrant’s presence took a little pressure off him up forward. | 4 |
17 | Haw | Only three marks and was inaccurate (1.3) again. Set shot kicking is woeful. | 3 |
18 | GWS | Worked hard across the forward line and kicked two goals. Encouraging. | 5 |
19 | StK | Mixed good with bad which is improvement on all bad this year. | 5 |
20 | Syd | Marking excellent, especially in the final term, although disposal erratic. | 5 |
21 | NM | Jeered by fans after spilling easy chest mark late in second quarter. | 1 |
22 | WCE | Worse than Cloke. Appeared devoid of confidence. | 2 |
QF | Haw | Copped solid knock late in first term but best contribution for some time. | 6 |
SF | WCE | Competed well until injured knee in third term. Returned but struggled. | 3 |
PF | Syd | His leg looked mummified with bandages. Battled through. | 3 |
