Opinion Is Jack Macrae Overrated?

[Piggy2008]

First bad game in a long time and all the termites come out the woodwork

was a bad game

 

[Cadillac]

Haha what a thread

 

[bullish23]

Just a no name midfielder amongst the stars of Yeo, Shuey, Gaff and Kelly according BT and Lingy

I didn't watch the eagles/dogs game.....how did the uncontested king fair today?

Seems he had a decent contribution to SC teams with 137 points

He had a pathetic 14 contested possessions and was a key reason the Dogs midfield got overwhelmed by Shuey, Kelly, Yeo, Gaff and Redden.

Hopefully just a down game, he will need to be at his best to take on the North midfield next week.

How was the 14 contested possessions pathetic?

Next week he'll just need to turn up.

Seems he played fair as he always does 1 free for and 1 free against would indicate he plays pretty well within the rules, which would define a player who plays fair (or more correctly plays fairly).

He also had 14 contested possessions for 32 disposals at 81% efficiency with a match defining goal.

If your question was meant to be how did Macrae fare today?

The answer would seem to be extremely well as part of a dominant Bulldog side.

Thanks for your concern.

And now holds the record for most consecutive 30+ disposal games in AFL history.

Probably underrated if anything.

I was able to watch Macrae live in person yesterday for the first time this year.

I made an effort to watch his positioning & running patterns.

Having seen what I've seen and now having a better understanding of what Macrae does........I have to admit that this thread & OP has hit the nail on the head.

You watched his worst game for the season lmao

So every game is his worst game because they all look the same.

What an assumption to make after only watching him live once this year. Suits your post history.

Having spent time reading your posts, meticulously analysing your pov, I have to admit, as others have mentioned, you are a clueless troll nuff nuff.

Your team must be garbage if you went to a game to focus on an opposition player

 

[Walsh Bay]

Definitely over-rated and I exhort all opponents and opposition coaches to forget about him and pay him no attention henceforth.

I’ve watch on the tv and in person years prior

I do agree that he wasn't at his best yesterday. I'm sure the coaches will all agree with us that he had no impact on the game. No chance either coach would've had him in their votes

They don't pay him attention though, that's why he racks up these massive numbers

1st in the AFL for goal assists
7th in the AFL for score involvements

Doesn’t hurt anyone with the ball though

That’s probably more of a byproduct due to being #1 for total disposals.

ie- H.McKay & Naughton are 1&2 for total marks inside 50. Is it a surprise they are in the top 7 for total goals?

Right… so Macrae’s ball winning ability is actually the very reason why he’s so good?? Mind blowing!!!

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

He’s a gun, definitely not overrated.

Is a wicketkeeper's worth defined by the amount of times he/she catches or and receives the ball?

As a fellow troll I appreciate good work when I see it. I have to admit I almost fell for this one.
