v interesting that 2 inside stoppages is Tyson's second most
Review Dees v West Horsham: the Good, Bad & Fugly - Rd 19, 2018
- Thread starter Biffinator
- Start date
- Tagged users None
To be completely fair he's played 10 games and I've only analysed 6 of those, so he could've had more inside mid time in those, but Melbourne's structure typically has him starting off the back of the square then moving into his normal wing position, so I would be surprised as Brayshaw has replaced him.
Full Breakdown for him:
Rd 5 vs. Richmond: 20 starts (of 27): 7i, 13w - whilst Brayshaw played he didn't have any inside starts. Christian Salem: inside mid, was in operation and he had 13 to Tyson's 7.
Rd 7 vs. St Kilda: 25 starts (of 28): all wing
Rd 8 vs. Gold Coast: 26 starts (of 35): all wing
Rd 14 vs. Port Adelaide: 15 starts (of 22): all wing
Rd 18 vs. Geelong: 22 starts (of 33): 1i, 21w
Rd 19 vs. Adelaide: 20 starts (of 26): 2i, 18w
Last season he averaged 8 inside starts per game from 12 analysed games, but hidden within that he had 5 games where he had 2 or less inside starts.

Anyone catch the footage of Walker trying to get into Gawn on On The Couch. Absolute peanut.

Bullshit. The footage shows he honours that double banger.
After getting burned by TMac on the high five, Spargo doubles down only to get stung again.

Yes I don't mind it when players are in the vicinity but Tex did a massive circle to just have a crack at Gawn. As pointed out it's water off a ducks back with Gawn. I still think the preseason camp thing is nonsense but Gawn did say he enjoyed accomplishing the 72 hour camp the year before so he's definitely not mentally weak. Certainly not the right player to target. To be honest this team did have that ridiculous power stance.

I reckon it was a throw. His hand holding the ball is moving while he handballs. That's a throw, but it seems to be allowed 99% of the time these days. There are the odd one that gets pulled up which just confuses everyone but IMO that's a throw. Check out the Bulldogs 2016 season. Throws galore.

He has absolutely lost it since they were embarrassed in the Grand Final. Would be for his own good if he was tapped on the shoulder and told that Sloane is taking over for 2019, and I reckon it'll happen.

Its a shame for them, because he led them exceptionally well during Walsh's death.

Very nitpicking....to the letter of the law maybe but does any player ever hold their controlling hand perfectly still. Even in the past when throwing was umpired a lot more strictly than it is now.
Quite often Oliver draws his controlling hand to towards his clenched first to get more power on the handpass....that is not a throw.

Oh sure. But these days the leeway they get is pretty huge.
I think you'll find to the letter of the law, what oliver does is actually illegal as you describe it.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we do it and get away with it. We weren't when the dogs went crazy with it, but now we are, i say get away with what you can.

Looked like JKH was finding his feet at senior level which is great to see. He really started showing a bit of confidence in the third quarter. He has something about him that I really like, seems to create scoring chances when he gets involved. And to be fair to Tyson, I thought that was his best game of the year.
Hogan was awful. I hope he wasn’t playing at 100% because he got his arse handed to him by Keath. Petracca was pretty ordinary again too. He looks at least 5kg overweight.

I thought that was pretty odd, I barely noticed him. Not saying he was bad, just not great.

Trac was very good I thought. Played well in the middle which is just as well given the Viney situation. Hogan was terrible but he genuinely looked as though something was bothering him for the entire game. I liked that once he figured out he was off it touch-wise, he seemed to crack in with general effort in the second half. He’s big enough to be a nuisance around the ball even on days where his skills aren’t really working. Plus he drags a defender with him regardless - he’s too dangerous to leave lurking around on his own.
During?
