Past #25: Robbie Tarrant - traded to RFC for CCJ&picks - 2yr deal at RFC - 174 NM games/44 NM goals - retires 13/7/23 effective immediately

[Friday Night Lights]

Didn’t lose a 1 on 1 contest until round 19. Must have had a terrible last 4 weeks.

 

[hilly]

I really don't understand this.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Astounding.

Those stats are comical. Also not sure if Talia actually takes the best forward each week.

 

[Snake_Baker]

I'm sure Robbie doesn't give a flying * about it.

Bartlett & Tredrea are the only 2 people on that list who aren't complete twits.

 

[Friday Night Lights]

Daniel Talia?

No seriously, who really got in ahead of Taz?

What a dire bunch of selectors

 

[Friday Night Lights]

Gil should stick to selecting the All Australian Coxless Fours

 

[scottywiper]

Deadset, what a pisstake the AA team is. He played one bad game against Kennedy, who played his only good game of year, Healy saw it and he's crossed off list. These blokes are fools.

 

[DuckYeah]

He was even more viable for AA contention than Cunners or Brown, and he still wasn't selected....FMD

.... when I scrolled through the nominations.. saw Brown, 2nd coleman, figured hed be in the 40.. saw Cunners thought, yeah okay, based on his form for the first 14 weeks, ok.... then ....... what??????

If one can think rationally about the 40 players in the AA Robbie makes it.. however, what on earth have these guys seriously contemplated to not have him in the team?? One game against west coast? Surely not

 

[sutcliffe's hotel]

The so-called experts have turned the AA squad into the Logies.

 

[El Triggso]

A comical decision which deserves mockery.

For those who remember the Mc’Donalds medallion ‘awarded’ to Corey McKernan in 1996 by his team mates, perhaps one of the boys can get an “All Australian” jacket whipped up for Taz in Thailand.

 

[shinboner magic]

A load of *en horse s**t

Our players should make a pact - anytime the question of being in the AAyeqm next season arises - their response should be that we’re not interested in Mickey Mouse teams

What a joke.

What more does the bloke need to do?

Hadn't lost a 1 on 1 til 4-5 weeks out from the end of the season

The reality is we need to be a top four side to get blokes like Taz in the AA side, as we don't have the profile. There's no way known Talia had a better season, but he is a higher profile player so easier to justify.

Well Tredrea would be the primary selector for the two SA clubs so would have pushed for Talia.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Anyway, I reckon he's odds on for the Syd again which is a much more prestigious honour.

Who made it: Daniel Talia (Adelaide)
Who could have: Robbie Tarrant (North Melbourne)

No one defended more one-on-one contests than Talia, whose 103 dwarfed Tarrant's 63. Tarrant narrowly won more of them than Talia (36.5 per cent to 34), but the Crow lost only 22.3 per cent of his compared to the Kangaroo's 30.2. Talia also had more spoils (154-139) and tackles (48-37) and had fewer goals kicked on him, but took fewer intercept marks (40-47). His defensive prowess must have won the selectors over, because Tarrant was clearly the more offensive player of the two. Tarrant comfortably had more disposals, metres gained, rebound 50s, inside 50s and score involvements.

What constitutes a 1 on 1 contest and why is there such a varying figure for the stat between what we heard and what this article says?

The secrecy of champion data is a blight on the game. All these stats being given to us by the media but we have no way to verify them.
