There are times when players grab matches by the throat and drag their teams over the line. And there are times when players dominate matches when their team smashes the opposition. 

Here, Michael Whiting from AFL.com.au takes a look at the biggest individual performance for the Gold Coast SUNS this season and over the past five years as measured by Official AFL Player Ratings.

The game's best player ensured this contest was all but over by quarter-time. Ablett had three goals in the first term as the Suns sprinted to a 32-point lead and never looked back. They won by 38 points in the end, largely on the back of Ablett's 37 disposals (of which 22 were contested), eight clearances, four goals and two goal assists. He tallied 33.7 Player Ratings points. 

Coming off an emotional first-up QClash win over the Brisbane Lions, Ablett was a one-man band in the 57-point loss to the Crows. His amazing stat line was 41 disposals, 23 contested, 13 clearances, eight tackles, four goals and two goal assists. Despite Patrick Dangerfield's six goals, Ablett's 40.8 Player Ratings points was good enough for the three Brownlow Medal votes.
