Yep. I suspect I'm going to be the only one in these parts who will end up going without McKercher.
A shiny new, VC capable McKay who's every chance to be a top 10 Forward overall is just too tempting for me.
Cash to upgrade later on, or a keeper now? 🤔
No real need to post. I just didn't see a lot of humble pie being consumed in threads after the round...
I expect there's a lot here that go off angry, half cocked off a loss and don't bother when things go to plan (typical internet review, right?), but he was good v. Melbourne.
He was even...
I'll bite, simply because this is a human condition that literally makes my head explode (*)
If it's "objective", care to post your unequivocal evidence for us all to see?
(*) I would hope this didn't actually need an asterisk.
Agree. His heatmap from Rd. 0 is similar in positioning, but got far less of it.
So is not a change of role as such, he just had a cracker.
(No judgement from me as to how he'll go from here).
Yes and no.
I saw someone post the 'distance covered' numbers in another thread. And while it said we covered 4k's less over all, I would love to be able to access and analyse each individual's gps data from the game.
We're consistently poor late in quarters. We generally find it tough to...
Agree. Then has Richmond, (DeKoning 100+) and then West Coast ([insert any old spud here] 100+).
It's also why I do think it's worth getting in Heen-Dawg, if only for 3 games.
There's genuinely a very real possibility he could be averaging 140+ and be around $580k by his bye.
(I realise this...
I don't for one second want to suggest TTR is emotional or irrational... 😉...
... but imho Khamis was better than Coffield.
Either way, exactly that. There's no defenders to come in, so I suspect they both stay.
Edit: while I'm here, Sanders was clearly 'fatigued' (yeah. Don't like using that...
Not necessarily directed at you, but I'm seeing a bit of this in different threads...
Brown kicked 2 goals. One was from a TERRIBLE umpiring decision in the goal square (that definitely wasn't Baku's fault), the other was from an awful turnover at half back where Khamis was left 1 on 2 and was...
I haven't read the entire 20 pages, so forgive me if I'm on the wrong page completely.
This was the first game I've seen live in a while (since the 2016 GF in fact... 😬).
I was bottom tier just best the cheer squad, so not the best place to be analytical.
But, I didn't think Baku was bad at...
Add Flanders...
Most will have Sextonne.
Cadman would be handy (and in fact there's now 5 or 6 of them who, in a normal year, look like they'd be more than handy).
Big decisions, I agree.
I haven't read it yet, but there's an obvious 3rd take from extra numbers around a stoppages too...
...and that is that we're generally outnumbered either forward of the ball (and so it's harder for us to score) or behind (it's easier for the opposition to score).
[Having said that the numbers...
Will Jackson outscore Daicos over the first 5 rounds?
It's a pretty tough argument against IMHO...
(As such, I'm just doing a wookie switcharoo).
Getting Daicos in around that round 6-7 mark is obviously problematic, but this way you'll get to keep a structure you think is a good thing.
I haven't got them on me but will find out in the next day or 2...
...but I suspect scores from clearances as a % of overall clearance wins is a decent start. (Ageee 100% that other factors are involved, though).
If we could get an I50 as a % of clearance wins?... (I don't know if that's a thing? )
Contrary to the contrary... (I do enjoy these kind of discussions)...
[This is very unscientific as I'm being particularly lazy]
58 stoppages yesterday in a pre-season game (notoriously open and somewhat bruise free). 9 tackles.
58 stoppages v. North at Marvel last year. (7 tackles)
75 (I...
Fremantle :Tom Emmet 182k FWD: 11 disposals, 1 mark, 1 goal and 2 behinds, used the ball poorly...
There seems to be a lot on the Freo board talking him up for Rd. 1.
Will be interesting to see the stats from the Dogs game.
Eye test for 2nd and 3rd quarters, seemed to me that both Baku and Coffield played pretty well. Baku will be higher possession/mark, Coffield a potential higher SC ceiling.
🤔
Edit: Sorry, was possibly better discussed in the pre-season...
Very interesting question.
I'm starting to genuinely suspect that English misses more games than he plays this year.
(The words both the Club and he himself are using don't fill me with any confidence at all. I reckon he's one decent knock away from missing a massive chunk of games).
I doubt...
