lol

Against Carlton. Wow

 

[Zoom]

He’s actually going to win our BNF

 

[Morro]

He’s actually going to win our BNF

That would be amazing

 

[Zoom]

That would be amazing

Amazing, but sad at the same time. Would make Martin’s fall of grace all the more embarrassing.

 

[mauricerioli]

What does it bloody matter anyway? They are footballers, not brain surgeons.

That number 4 guy for us had the same knocks on him for leaving school early.

He turned out to be a pretty good player.

 

[captain cotch 9]

Is it time to chuck him into the guts for a 1/4 or 2?

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

His last name sounds like a Turkish dip....

 

[MattWriting]

He's ranked #1 in AFL of players 25 or younger - for performance relative to expectation based on age and position

 

[GoTigers2015]

He's ranked #1 in AFL of players 25 or younger - for performance relative to expectation based on age and position

Spud Zurhaar is not even on the list.

I think it is, but is his tank up to it.

Not denigrating Sydney Stack but how many more useless stats can they come up with?

Agree there are a lot of useless stats, but this one isn't a bad measure of comparing the new players

 

[This Is Anfield]

The rest of the side should be in that Clinic...for chronic under performers....

FFS, we are 4-3 with a heap of guns out and had just won three in a row. Yes, it's a struggle but don't get hysterical!

This list basically confirms what we can tell instinctively from observing Master Stack since he has been in the AFL team. His performance since he has been in the team is a massive outlier, it is totally unexpected for a player that age to perform at the level he has. That is, any 18 year old. Let alone one that couldn't get drafted, and therefore conceded a head start to the field in terms of pre season preparations. This is why I have said if I were an AFL club(including Richmond) I would target him with a strong offer at the earliest viable point.

OK i'll wait and then.....

Which is a little obvious when you think about it because usually when an 18yo doesn't get drafted, they usually don't play any AFL games and therefore have no impact

 

[joelsyt]

Should have been nominated this week.

Wtf does he have to do to get that nomination?

 

[SumTingWong]

That would be amazing

That would be a disgrace

might need to pull the racism card out for the afl to acknowlede him and give him a nomination

afl campaigners

 

[Dr Awkward]

Stack is paying $34 for the rising star and Walsh is paying $1.37...

Honestly, if Stack was a top 10 pick and playing like he is now, he would be even money

 

[Dr Awkward]

He will be a very very good footballer in 2-3 years

Dude he's a very very good footballer now. Can't remember seeing a more impressive combination of attributes for a first year player. Extremely tough and courageous + composed, smooth and excellent decision making. Hope he can keep it up

Would be worth chucking 50 on him

 

[blaisee]

Awesome stat

It basically means he is the best performing player in the league when you take into account the expected output of a player of his age .

 

[Hank Heavenly]

Better than Cripps according to that Stat, should be Brownlow favourite then!

 

[captain cotch 9]

11th best ranked general defender in the league. Every played rated above him has also played 2 more games than him.
