Player Watch Marcus Bontempelli is overrated

[Iamspock]

I have never seen a player get his possessions intercepted as much as Bontempelli does. For a guy who is meant to be an "elite" disposal, he sure kicks it to the opposition often.

In the 4th quarter, Touk Miller was busting his guts to try and get his team over the line, while Bontempelli was skirting backs, fumbling and just being completely ineffectual.

Oliver Wines would be a far more deserving Brownlow winner than Bontempelli.

Well, given all the posts you've put in your own thread to justify your OP, Bont clearly lives in your head, admittedly, there seems to be a lot of room there.

Your club would have him in a heartbeat.

Of course. As would 16 other clubs.

So when do you start your therapy ??

 

[Baird]

Imagine how low one's IQ would have to be to think disposal efficiency is an indication of a player's skill level.

 

[WillHayward]

Thank god for the NGA.
If it wasn't for the Dogs JUH would have been lost to the game.

 

[Boristown]

5 of his clangers were free kicks against and 2 dropped marks

 

[MattyJayJ]

Are we really doing this? This is up there with the shittest threads I’ve ever read. I’ll admit I didn’t watch his game today but if his 36 disposals were that putrid then the other 16 Dogs games this season should provide some insight to the Bont’s talents. He’s a ball magnet in a prime age bracket who is consistently damaging on the scoreboard and stands up week in week out when his team needs him. Honestly give me a spell.

Wrong thread old son

Wrong thread old son

Yeah I know but this thread is pointless and ridiculous so I figured I'd change the subject.

 

[windyhill]

I wish he could over rate in Essendon colours.

 

[Back One Out]

"You just get the feeling this thread will be bumped on Brownlow night when the Bont takes 'Charlie' home..."

 

[Upgrayedd]

He also said clangers were different compared to being under pressure or not

I don't think OP watches football to be fair

I think he's seen the stat posted and just assumed Bont sprayed 15 kicks directly to the opposition or something

please post with your Crows account please

 

[Schauermann]

Show me a single game where Dusty has had 15 clangers.

15 clangers is laughably bad, jesus christ. At least Dusty is explosive.

Funny fact: Dusty is averaging more clangers then Bont, Fyfe or Dangerfield over his career. While only Buddy has a higher career total.

Yep
Total plonker!
Wouldn’t get a game at port

would be a far more deserving Brownlow winner than Bontempelli.

Had a bad game re clangers, but that’s not the norm. Averages 4.something a game. Pretty decent with the big possession numbers he racks up.
Wines averages over 5.
Just saying..

Thank god for the NGA.
If it wasn't for the Dogs JUH would have been lost to the game.

Thank god for academies. If it wasn't for Sydney, the son of the man who has played the 12th most games of all time, and qualified for father/son elsewhere, would have been lost to the game

He’d be a decent 18-22 player on most lists.
