Season by Season

• Boak shrugged constant tags to have a solid season in the black, white and teal. Despite missing three games following foot surgery, he regularly featured in the club’s best players and polled well at best and fairest and Brownlow nights.
  
• Despite much hype over contract negotiations involving the Power and other clubs, Boak committed to a two-year extension at Alberton which will see him through to the end of the 2014 season.
  
• His neat skills and ball winning ability proved as good as ever despite playing through a foot complaint for the first ten rounds.

• “Boaky” had a great year after a slow start with injury which prevented him from undertaking a ‘normal’ pre-season track campaign typical of a key midfielder.
  
• His strong performance all year led to him being announced as a joint-winner of the John Cahill Medal and led the club in numerous important statistics including possessions, inside 50s and clearances.
  
• He can win the ball as an inside player and hurt the opposition with his skilful run-and-carry and showed these abilities throughout the year.

• Boak re-committed to the Power midway through the season and continued to show just how good he could be with a high average of 23 possessions per game.
  
• His season ended with a flourish when he kicked three goals in each of the final two rounds.
  
• He also adapted to being the first-tagged player in the Port Adelaide midfield but his form seemed to improve with the pressure and he finished the season with 16 Brownlow votes.
