Even I could see he was going to kick that into the man on the mark from the shot from his defensive goals. He's clearly got issues trusting his routine rather than with the routine itself because it's not the first time he's either kicked into or got so close to the man he's had to run out and do a hook

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

I love watching him crunch packs on the lead

Why not? Fantasia did.

Fantasia had, if I recall correctly, half a game in the reserves, which I believe is not "a few weeks", and "a few weeks" in the reverses comes with the implication that you have to "earn" your spot back, hence the post.

“Ok” “mate”

boy can't wait for Daniher to do his few weeks in the reserves

Still keeping this bloke in with Joe and kicking McKernan out eth-dog ?

Been tripe, two weeks in a row now

 

[Phone]

he wasn't doing too much during our previous dry spell either. i don't really find it concerning, but then (to me) he's just a 3rd tall forward who is a 50/50 kick for goal.

 

[biglaycock]

Lucky boy that we have no one to come in and replace him, Effort is still there but his hands are putrid at the moment

Mate, McKernan was our worst by a country mile.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

To be fair to James and Shaun, neither really had any real delivery service all evening, hard to make clunk-taking leads when your midfield/backline is just flicking them in at random any which how.

Yeah, but Shaun just made some brain dead decisions that a 14 year old wouldn't.

I’d be tempted to drop him and bring in another runner, he’s given us nothing since Daniher got rested and Hooker moved out of the forward line.

 

[jmoo wan]

on the positive side, he’s got his s**t game out of the way so his next two will be great.

 

[BrunoV]

Burned on the lead and done no favours by the umpires.

I don't know why professional organisation tolerate a goal kicking routine's like his. Something like that will always end up failing and it's the height of stupidity to continue to allow it to occur. The stutter can and should be eradicated by the end of the bye.

 

[vast]

I swear he didnt have that stutter In his routine last year... I could be wrong though

 

[Highly Evolved]

Fantastic as a second or third forward. He isn't really a number one target and the only time when that becomes a problem is when Joey is out.

 

[Great8]

We allowed Richmond to play 2 spares at the back all night. Lost count of the times we bombed it inside 50 to a 2 on 1 where he was outnumbered.

He has always had that stutter, and been one of our most accurate kicks for goal to boot.

he's now 37/29 for essendon, to go with 18/19 for GWS. i recall working out that his conversation rate was worse as Hooker's and Joey's whose woes obviously attracted more attention, but i think it's a issue (and one that goes beyond the strutter)

Are you including out of bounds? It's really difficult to get OOB figures, other than to work backwards from the 'shots at goal' and 'goal accuracy' stats (provided below for reference).

Rank - Players - Highlights - Position - Matches Played - Goals - Behinds - Goal Accuracy - Shots at Goal

Stringer is classed as a mid and doesn't come up in the search above, his goal accuracy is 38.9% this season with 3.3 Shots on Goal per game (ave).

oh I should have made it clearer, I'm just going by the afltables records because of AFL stats being what they are, so that would be including field shots but not set shots that go out of bounds. not ideal but it seems to be telling similar stories

(an "expected goals" model sure would be handy)

 

[Dons4days]

Yeah, but Shaun just made some brain dead decisions that a 14 year old wouldn't.

That’s the Shaun we know & love.....

It honestly seemed like the tigers had twice as many players on the ground. A perfect example of defensive running... as soon as we had the ball they were in our offensive half before all our players had even turned and started jogging there

 

[yaco55]

Stewart desperately needs JD back or Hooker forward who can attract the number one tall defender - He's also being forced to play too deep which doesn't suit his style of play.
