Hall of Famer
You'd think the lack of attention opposition clubs give players like Ryan would be a dead giveaway. Ryan will rack up stats whether Freo win or lose. How well Clark performs is a much better indicator of their success, and his role is still less important than their inside mids (though he is far, far more damaging than Ryan).Now this is where the scoring system is completely ****ed. Pretty easy to have good DE when you’re sitting down back. In and under ball winners with 6 blokes hanging off them disadvantaged. This game used to reward contested highly. Last few years it’s flipped to be all about DE. Correct that back to the way it rightly was and all the BS goes out of the game and Luke Ryan becomes the spud he is.
