The euphoria of the Bulldogs finals win in Perth was tempered by the powerful image of an injured Lin Jong in tears on the bench after playing what may be his last game for the AFL club.The midfielder suffered a serious right shoulder injury during the second quarter after landing on it when caught in a heavy tackle by Jeremy McGovern.Club doctors quickly ruled him out of the rest of the match and the distressed 23-year-old appeared to also believe his season was over - unlike his teams - when TV cameras captured the painful image of him being consoled by a trainer.Jong had six possessions up to the 13-minute mark of the second quarter when he was injured.It might be his last match for the club given he is out of contract and being pursued by Gold Coast and Collingwood, but he was desperate to be part of the Bulldogs campaign in Thursday nights 47-point elimination final win in front of a stunned crowd of 42,079 at Domain Stadium.The Bulldogs had already rolled the dice with recently injured players including captain Easton Wood, Jackson Macrae, Jordan Roughead and Tom Liberatore but it paid off.Next week the Bulldogs play the loser of Hawthorn and Geelong while the Eagles season is over.

Heres our ratings for the division. Cincinnati Bengals, 12-4 Geno Atkins showed hes one of the stars of the Cincinatti Bengals side It was more of the same from the Bengals which, for the vast majority of the 2015 season, was extremely impressive. But they couldnt lift their postseason curse - they havent won a single play-off game in 25 years - and unfortunately that unwanted record will define their year.They lost to Pittsburgh in the Wild Card round to bring the curtain down on their campaign, a pill that was even harder to swallow given the Bengals had won a regular season game against the Steelers. That victory had taken them to 7-0, a franchise-best start to a season, as they romped clear at the top of the AFC North. Their appearance in the play-offs was expected and was a franchise-best fifth in a row. But they wilted in the Wild Card round against Pittsburgh, failing to make their lead count and eventually going down 18-16 after a fumble from Jeremy Hill. Highlights as the Steelers beat the Bengals in the play-offs Star player: Like the Patriots Rob Gronkowski before him, Cincys Tyler Eifert has emerged as a modern era tight end who is redefining the position and becoming a frequent touchdown threat. He scored 11 in 2015.Grade: C. It was all looking so good for the Bengals who were on course for at least a B after storming to the top of the AFC North. But thats no good if you dont do the serious work.Pittsburgh Steelers, 10-6 Ben Roethlisberger reveals the severity of his MCL injury Ultimately their season was ended in the play-offs by the Denver Broncos, who went on to win Super Bowl, so theres no shame in that. Who knows if they would have gone further had star quarterback Ben Roethlisberger suffered less through injury?Roethlisbergers frequent fitness concerns were an underlying limitation on the Steelers season - on paper, there are few better combinations than Big Ben throwing to Antonio Brown. In the end, far too much responsibility was placed on Brown. Highlights of a fully fit Ben Roethlisberger The Steelers, having sneaked into second-place in the AFC North, deserve great credit for battling through the Wild Card round with Roethlisberger and Brown both off the field due to injury. They beat the Bengals in a comeback partly attributed to two generously late foul penalties. At the next hurdle, they fell foul of the Broncos mean defence who prevented the Steelers from scoring any touchdowns.Star player: A total of 1,834 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns earmarks Antonio Brown as the Steelers top player, especially considering the emphasis that opposing defences placed on him.Grade: C+. Having gamely battled so far with a creaking Roethlisberger, the Steelers warrant a C+ but its a must do better in terms of keeping their top players fit and firing.Baltimore RRavens, 5-11 Steve Smith missed the majority of this season after an Achilles injury - watch here An immensely frustrating season has thankfully ended for Baltimore who were widely predicted last summer to challenge for a Super Bowl berth.ddddddddddddIt must be said, in their defence, that astonishing fitness issues that resulted in 22 names on their injured reserve list played a pivotal role in their underwhelming year.It was the first time in eight years under head coach Jim Harbaugh that the Ravens endured a losing season. Season-ending injuries to top players Joe Flacco and Justin Forsett were just two of the problems that affected Harbaughs side. Terrell Suggs played just a few minutes on the opening day before he was ruled out for the whole season and the Ravens duly slipped to 1-6 in seven games.Their season ended in Week 14 with defeat to Seattle when, to sum up their luck, the Ravens were forced to use third-choice quarterback Jimmy Clausen. A long offseason of rest and rehab is exactly what the doctor will have ordered. A particularly low moment for Baltimore which proved you should always play to the referees whistle Star player: This should be Flacco, Suggs or Forsett in an ideal season but at least Marshal Yanda, their offensive lineman, stayed healthy for the duration. He has been tied down to a long-term deal which reflects his importance.Grade: C-. It seems harsh but you cant give the Ravens anything above a C-. The head-scratcher is whether their medical department is doing enough for the players or whether this season should be filed as an anomaly.Cleveland Browns, 3-13 Watch this amazing finish to the game between Baltimore and Cleveland Where to begin? The personal problems around Johnny Manziel notwithstanding, 2015 was a nightmare year for the Browns which is best forgotten.Their record tied with Tennessee for the worst in the entire NFL and cost head coach Mike Pettine and general manager Ray Farmer their jobs in January. Having already finished bottom of the AFC North for four consecutive seasons, expectations were not high but putting in such a dire campaign was unforgivable.Manziel, who had manageable problems on the field before his personal issues began to outweigh them tenfold, did nothing to help his team but as a 23-year-old quarterback he was never expected to be the lynchpin. New coaching will be in place for next season - the Browns can hardly do any worse. Johnny Manziels first touchdown pass of the season Star player: This was a tough one to hand out but offensive lineman Joe Thomas has done nothing wrong all year, reaching a ninth consecutive Pro Bowl.Grade: F. It can only be an F, and wed be disappointed if Cleveland even queried that. Also See: AFC North: In Focus AFC South: In Focus AFC West: In Focus AFC East: In Focus ' ' '
