Unofficial Preview Changes v GC17

[The Nostradamus]

Lmac has to be dropped and never to return.
He’s finished and he probably knows it.
That play where Rachelle just toyed with him and keys kicked the goal off the ground - showed everything he is now. A scragger and not much else

Yep it’s time for him to be transitioned out of the team

Have posted in autopsy threads re the indicators that suggest our ability to repeat sprint, run defensively and run a required amount of distance (comparative to opposition) all appear to be red flags.

Looking more broadly, we sit around 9th to 14th on most general football metrics. ie right where we are. Not sure why we were getting such a media tyre pump tbh, indicators currently point to us being also rans.

Surprisingly our kicking and goal efficiency % are pretty good, I'd argue the eye test suggests otherwise.

On average we require 3-4 extra possessions to generate a shot at goal or a goal over Sydney or Melbourne.

Conversely Richmond need 7-8 more possessions than us per goal.

Couple of things that bore out our defensive issues:

16th for 1%ers - I take subjective stats with a grain of salt though

18th ie bottom of league for intercepts
