Murphy has been good, no question, but nowhere near the level of Pendlebury.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Murphy has been better that Pendlebury over the first 5 rounds this year jabbers.
Hard to split the two, I guess you have to take Pendlebury based on his success last year, but you are kidding yourself if you think Pendlebury is streets ahead of Murphy.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
In which areas? Possessions? No! Disposal Efficiency? No Clearances? No Contested Possessions No? Goals? No Tackles? No Marks? No Score Assists? No
Mmmm I'm sure you'll provide your reasons!

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
If Murphy has closed the gap b/w him & Pendlebury than Bryce Gibbs is currently the toughest player in the AFL. Paul Roos, Gary Lyon & James Hird last night said that Scott Pendlebury is currently the best player in the AFL. God there are some clueless ones here.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Aside from the fact counting stats has never been more irrelevent than in the modern game, Murphy happens to lead Pendles in contested possession, just so you know. The gap is negligible, but it's the same across the statistical spectrum between these two players.
I'm not going to claim Murphy as having had the better season thus far, but there's not much to argue against it either, apart from a handful of stats with negligible differences.
Still, their form has given a lot of weight to me having put them neck and neck heading into the season in complete draft re-do sense, as per previous pages arguments.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Contested Possession = Yes. Murphy averaging 2 more a game than Pendlebury this year.
Goals = Yes Murphy is averaging more this year and has all his career.
Clearances - Both averaging 6.2
Possession = Pendlebury averaging 29.2 to Murphy 28.2. Huge difference there
Don't let the facts get in the way of your biased opinion though.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Your statistics are clearly wrong. Please refer to a better source next time.
Official AFL statistics: Pendlebury is averaging one goal/assist per game - Murphy is well under that. Pendlebury is also averging over 30 touches a game. For clearances, Pendlebury just pips Murphy with 5.8 to 5.4.Contested Possession = Yes. Murphy averaging 2 more a game than Pendlebury this year.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Apologies for the contested stats on looking again Murphy has averaged .4 more a game NOT 2! Clearances Pendlebury averages 0.4 more a game and 0.4 goals more per game.
So all of your stats were wrong! But hey let's not let facts get in the way!
ps. Your disposals stat was wrong too!

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Don't be so antagonistic, the stats that I look at match his, except for goals scored which has Pendlebury in front at 1.0 where as Murphy is at .6
This is where I get my stats from http://www.pro-stats.com.au/

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Priddis, Duffield & Jack, and probably Hocking, are better than Ibbotson.
Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Didn't Lecras kick 12 goals on Hocking :/ Ibbo's gonna have a breakout year either this one or next.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Has already had his breakout year (2nd in our B & F last year) and currently Top 15 in Clearances and contested possessions.
Just proved Hocking is not a defender - he is a midfielder

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Can't disagree with your list except that perhaps Ibbotson and Stokes a little high. Ibbotson definitely not ahead of Varcoe IMO

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Swallow is developing into a sensational player.
Heir apparent to Hayes imo (in a competition sense).
Seems to have gone up another level again;
27 ppg, 6 tackles and a goal a game is some serious numbers.
Disposal is now a strength.
Will be a bit unlucky I fear, as alot of non AA mids are having fantastic years in top 8 sides, Watson, Mundy etc
Could be the best midfielder outside of the actual AA side this year.
I'd personally have him ahead of Murphy now, certainly Thomas.

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
Wing or through the middle is his go and he's really been good this year.
Yep. He cannot defend overhead to save himself, we had 3 of our back pocket options injured at that point last year.

Easily number 3, the bloke is bordering on 'elite'.
If he played for Collingwood they would all be raving on about him being a superstar

Re: 2005 Afl draft Re-Done
The reason was that i didn't include rookie drafted players in the list. Note that the ones i listed in my post you could make a case for being included in the 15 but most were more mature which is a bit of an advantage.
A bit like Barlow last year and Curnow now
