Bontempelli had 42 scoring shots compared to 28 from Polec and Dunkley kicked 11 goals.No but kicking goals is a very valuable asset to have as a midfielder and one which often distinguishes the best from the very best.
Hunter is a star. An absolute gun of a footballer but in my eyes, he's no different to a Trent Cotchin. Terrific player but not an x factor.
North Melbourne have Higgins and Polec. They win their own footy but also contribute on the scoreboard. While I do not for a second think Polec is a better player than Hunter, I do believe his game (coupled with that of Higgins), hurts a team like the Western Bulldogs more so than most given the Bulldogs are rather one dimensional inside and out.
The pleasure is all mine. All the best for your weird lurking in the future champ.i know you do...thanks for the laughs
Ben Jacobs is still one of the best.
Ziebell and Cunnington are elite contested footballers
Higgins and Polac are exceptional outside runners and finishers (who at the Dogs is similar?).
Add in depth such as Dumont, Pittard and Hall, whom all average over 18 disposals per game, and you have a pretty serious midfield.
Bontempelli had 42 scoring shots compared to 28 from Polec and Dunkley kicked 11 goals.
The guy who played:
0 games in 2019
13 games in 2018
0 games in 2017
7 games in 2016
Who knows if he'll even play? The game changes quickly, will he still be able to keep up?
Cunnington most definitely, Ziebell definitely not - Andrew Gaff averaged more Contested Possessions than Ziebell last year!
The dogs have JJ, Hunter and Lipinski who's improving.
Their mids are also very good both inside and out.
Hall is an inconsistent rubbish footballer, I don't know enough about Dumont to give a strong opinion and Pittard I'm pretty sure is classified as a defender.
Ziebell cancels out Bontempelli as he scores same number of goals as Bont.
oh yeah makes perfect sense to compare Jack Ziebull and Marcus Bontempelli
Great post.Actually Geelong and Hawks stopped teams getting it inside the def 50 and once there they didn't let them score much either so exposing the defence isn't what happened. Look at table below for example.
The ranking on champion data for defenders is all about those possession numbers it seems rack up lots of and metres gained and your good rack up low to none (even if the oppo don't score ) is bad.

Right up there with winning trade week.getting that number 1 team ranking is the most important thing in the comp, fu** the premiership
And having the youngest team in the leagueRight up there with winning trade week.
So because the ball didn’t go into the Geelong backline often (and Hawthorn's to a lesser extent) they weren't able to run it out as often as the top rating defenses meaning they were ranked lowerActually Geelong and Hawks stopped teams getting it inside the def 50 and once there they didn't let them score much either so exposing the defence isn't what happened.

Well no, because you said "CD are inferring," when CD is the speaker. But I honestly didn't mean to be a grammar nazi about it! People often mix them up.
They underrated our backs and forwards thoughChampion Data have it spot on.
North Melbourne's midfield is one of the best in the comp and will be for a couple more years time.
