    Alright this reply has explained whats going on here. You can't read properly. You're upset about things I didn't say.

    Pull your head in champ you said an incorrect statement of fact "X = y". I said "as I understand it". Its a qualifier. Its not a confident incorrect statement. This is your second just absolutely made up thing. Honestly what is the point in engaging with you if you make stuff up? Why are you...

    Straight up that's not the case. Don't say things with confidence that are wrong. Champion data who produce these statistics record both and have a different definition for each. disposals is getting rid of the ball, possession is taking possession of it. Why are you making things up...

    As I understand it you get a possession but not a disposal for that?

    I didn't sledge you or anyone, I described a dynamic that exists on sports forums in general. People love to put in for unflashy meat and potatoes types. This is true of me as well it's just part of the culture of these sorts of places. If this got under your skin im sorry but given it wasn't...

    sure, but if you buy sort on disposals and in about a quarter of the games he plays he gets absolutely f all, and that he plays in the part of the ground where players tend to get the most disposals and disposals are a basic rubric of how influence is measured, particularly for midfielders and...

    Sick of squinting to see the good player with James. In far far too many games you find yourself thinking "would you say a tackle is worth 2 possessions... and does that equal out to a good game or ..." Just don't know if we can have one of our key midfielders be someone who will probably put...

    Autopsy 31 point loss to Collingwood

    Until we can find a way of at very least breaking even in centre clearances and not letting opposition get a run of momentum in there we're going to struggle.

    Past Will Hayward

    Being in the top handful in the competition in his role isn't enough for some. Has to be a lay down misere best in the comp to not warrant a derogatory nickname and calls to drop him.

    Past Will Hayward

    People ask for consistency but last year the only other non key forwards with 40 plus goals are Stengle, Greene, Cameron and Fritsch. What does he actually have to do to be acknowledged as one of our best contributors to scoring?

    List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals

    Ling turned out to be a busy but it's hard to blame that on the drafting. As I recall he was considered a pretty interesting but divisive prospect in that he was clearly the fastest player in his class and had pretty good but not great skill. He got himself turf toe a month or two into his...

    I'm certainly not suggesting we should do that! He's just an example of an established player in a role we have list depth in and that's the sort of player I can imagine us trading if we do decide we really want every one of those academy prospects.

    List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals

    We'll struggle to get all the points let alone the list spots. Wouldn't be surprised if we trade out some pretty good players. Thinking of people like McInerney Florent Sheldrick, even McDonald or McLean McCartin. Or just simply not try to get the points and spots for all of them and not...

    Autopsy 65! point win against North

    Do a little "who is that!?" Every time I see Vanilla in Parker's 26. He's just a delight. Grundy on the ABC radio call after the match called him Blakey 2.0. A bit less dynamism but a lot more consistency. What an absolutely perfect pick up.

    List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals

    2 firsts would be very good value for him. But there's a really solid chance that no one in this draft at all ends up being as good as Chad. They might be but even if they are it will probably take a few years, 3-5 to get there. We may not select one of the at best 3 players who are better...
