Curtly Hampton ranked second in the competition for total pressure acts during the JLT Community Series with 67. Brisbane’s Dayne Zorko ranked No.1 with 86 pressure acts.

Three Crows gained more than 1,000 metres for their team during the pre-season. Line-breaking left-footer Rory Atkins led the way with 1,226 metres (ninth in the AFL) ahead of Rory Laird (1,174) and Brodie Smith (1,143).

The Crows conceded the second-lowest number of free kicks during the JLT Series with 46 frees paid against the Club.
