All that tells me in that Adelaide have a heap of F50 entries and he should've probably kicked more given the hype that surrounds him. Kennedy has Le Cras and Darling as opposition for goals yet regularly out scores them.Technically. Tex has 1 x 60+ and 1 at 59
The 59 came in a year
Lynch 33
Betts 63
Jenkins 46
Nice return for a team with such an even spread.
Wouldn't have been anywhere near AA before Rd 7 - Kennedy, Cameron and Franklin all commanding KPF positions with Nick Riewoldt and Tom Lynch also in contention.
This is over the course of his career though. Koschitzke had 4 games where he looked like Wayne Carey trained by Stephen Dank.Averaging 15 touches, 6 marks and just under 3 goals a game for the year, and leads the comp in goal assists.
Going OK I would have thought. On track for 60 goals which would have him in the top 5 most years.
Lynch and Danniher aren't on a million though.Did I miss some hype?
I'd say he's pretty under-hyped compared to million dollar Lynch, million dollar Daniher, actual million dollar Franklin etc.
We all underestimated his leadership qualities and that alone is worth goals each week to his team.You've pretty much made my point.
If we are comparing Walker to Tippett and Hooker, surely he is overrated.
He should be compared with Riewoldt, Kennedy, Franklin, Cameron, Ben Brown etc but he just isn't at the same level
And still a long way behind Kennedy, Franklin and Cameron....He missed a game due to injury, if you rate the coleman by goals per game (which you should have), you’d see he’s on par with reiwoldt, hawkins and co. 2.77-2.8 goals per game. Where he is better than other key forwards is his goal assists, he’s 1st in the comp right now with 1.8 goal assists per game, no one else in the top 10 coleman is close to this.

That isn't in contention. Also, I'm not sure how you can measure how leadership skills equates to goals scoredThis Thread is purely on Taylor the player; not the captain. His leadership skills as a captain are unquestionable.

Strange thread really, bit of an overreaction to 1 bad game.

Riewoldt is a 2x time Coleman medalist. He has runs on the board
Cameron and Riewoldt both average more goals per game. Both have played in lower ranking teams - Cameron has been starring since a 20yo. Reiwoldt a 2 x Coleman Medalist. Both players have had little/no support.Cameron, Reiwoldt and Walker are all in the same league, albeit different players. Compare their output per game over their careers and then get back to me.
At the end of the day, a KPF is judged on his goals.Cameron wouldn't have many goal assist I'd imagine - will stand corrected
OP thinks that goals are more valuable than goal assists
I'd say they're as valuable as each other
Cameron and Riewoldt both average more goals per game. Both have played in lower ranking teams - Cameron has been starring since a 20yo. Reiwoldt a 2 x Coleman Medalist. Both players have had little/no support.
Walker has had Tippett and Jenkins for support.
Both Cameron and Riewoldt comfortably ahead of Walker
At the end of the day, a KPF is judged on his goals.
Otherwise suddenly Lockett, Dunstall, Bartlett etc have less impressive careers than they are given credit for.
No doubt Taylor is a good player and suits the Crows game plan. This isn't in contention

Gherig kicked 100 in a season where Riewoldt kicked 60+. Likewise Buddy always went big alongside Roughead.That argument goas both ways. Like 'you're telling me These players are the on focal points in a teams forward line and they only average the same as someone who has to contend with multiple top 10 coleman candidates?'
You obviously don't live in SA!Did I miss some hype?
I'd say he's pretty under-hyped compared to million dollar Lynch, million dollar Daniher, actual million dollar Franklin etc.

There's no doubt he is having a good season but his reputation definitely proceeds him
