Player Watch Lachie Schultz

If a couple of comments on a footy forum is a mountain to you, sure.
As far as pressuring in a game goes, Schultz would be our #1.
You don't normally score votes from this stat. Still managed to kick a decent amount of goals up forward while defending as well down back.

You're trying to show him as having a dud year.
Ask Fly.
 
The only senior AFL players who didn't spend most of 2024 injured and missed the top 10 was Schultz Hoskin-Elliot and a heavily aging Howe.

So the coaches are saying he didn't play well in 2024, which is what a lot of people were criticized for saying.

For a 26 year old in his prime with no injury issues it's a bloody poor return, but obviously it's only 1 season and he gets a chance to bounce back next year.
How does a person “heavily age?”

They've had to cancel the Melbourne goal kicking award. Dees forwards don't kick enough goals to meet the AFL qualifying score.
Surely it’s based on expected score?
 
Yes. We had to backload his years to meet the age cap, so he's coming into some heavy aging years.
The word heavy is normally associated with being pregnant.

He has already aged, that’s why he isn’t the player he used to be.
Above average in most stats is not bad for a 'heavily ageing' old man.

His experience & leadership is invaluable in our defence. Imo.

There was a period in the middle of the year when he was both our best defender and our best forward.

Wasn't in the top 10 of the copeland, despite playing almost every game, in a voting mechanism that rewards games played. From a player who is in his peak years.

I am confident we will get a better version of Schultz next year than we got this year, and that will be an important reason we get back into the top 4 (which I believe we will).
 
He's 34....I remember him being about 24 a decade ago. I wonder what happened to him
He had a decade of heavy ageing.
Poor bugger
