Boom GWS recruit Clayton Oliver has impressed teammates by becoming a more rounded player and heads into his first clash with former club Melbourne in red-hot form.
Oliver backed up his season-high 38 disposals last week with a game-high 37 touches in the Giants' 78-point shellacking of defending premiers Brisbane on Sunday.
GWS improved to 5-6 and go into the round-12 clash against the Demons in Alice Springs full of confidence after kicking their highest ever score (166), most in a quarter and an AFL/VFL all-time third-quarter record of 86 points.
Midfielder Oliver, who was traded to the Giants late last year, was outstanding in the first half when the game was close.
He is averaging 31.7 disposals a game, fourth-highest in the competition, but has shown he is far more than just a prolific ball winner.
