I agree that he's in bad form, but where do you get off with your 'statistical analysis'? You're all over every other thread telling us how stats are effectively a useless metric, particularly disposals, but now this is a measure of how s**t Brayshaw is?Brayshaw is averaging 16 disposals... This is supposed to be the third best kid of his age in the country
Lackluster interpretation of how draft picks work too. Pick 3 =/= the 3rd best career in the draft. There's a whole lot more factors involved than that, and we both know that. Was Brayshaw worth pick three? At this point you'd say no. Is he in the best 10 players from his draft class? Probably, I'd have to look at the group.
You're also falling for the Derwayne Russell trick of 'THIS IS THE LOWEST SCORING HALF ADELAIDE HAS HAD FOR A DECADE!'. Well, yeah, games are about 25% shorter so of course you're going to see less disposals and less scoring.
