The disrespect on JPK by some fans in unbelievable, if he did take a step back last season it was a bloody small step if any. I think some people see his age and automatically assume he's done...
At the club in 2020 he was:
3rd in ave. disposals (behind Lloyd and Parker)
2nd in ave. contested possessions (behind Parker)
2nd in ave. pressure acts (behind Parker)
2nd in ave. ground ball gets (behind Parker) (Hewett had 0.1 more than JPK, but only played 6 games)
4th in ave. score involvements (behind, Papley, Heeney and Parker)
2nd in ave. centre clearances (behind Parker)
1st in ave. stoppage clearances
1st in ave. tackles
Easily one of our top 3 best players
All true. But we have to improve our clearances and delivery into the forward 50 if we’re to become leaders in the competition again. Shouldn’t we be comparing our mids’ performances with our opponents rather than their teammates?
