Matt Crouch is just a plodder.

[Maddogmetro]

If darcy keeps his opponents quiet I couldn't care less if he gets 1 disposal. Fact that a 12 gamer can do that and then find that much ball himself (5 games over 20 disposals) alone proves what type of player he is. Much better then crouch

Keep deflecting Maddog. Proving I am right

He is not even a key defender, he plays on HB. His job is to get clearances and gain metreage, which requires disposals you ****ing numbskull. Or have you decided that he is a tagger now?

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Lol nice melt.

Keep ignoring facts drake, youre just validating my statements

I'll give you a little tip on life. Your biased opinion does not equal fact.

 

[Maddogmetro]

Keep ignoring and deflecting facts Maddog, shows you have nothing to back crouch up with. Thus validating my statements.

This whole thread is full of stats that back up Crouch as the better player. You have 'Oh well DBJ uses it so well!' as your argument lol

With every post you prove your stupidity more and more port_adelaide_1997

The deflection is real with these two. Keep ignoring the stats. Proving once again that I am right.

Just give up boys, you have lost and you know it.

p_a_1997's answer to real statements proving he is wrong,

'You lost haha keep ignoring stats (which haven't been provided, and after saying about 50 times that stats don't matter)'

I have serious concerns about your mental state

Why do you keep deflecting and ignoring stats? Proving I am right

Oh I forgot they don't exist

Still waiting on these fictitious stats flog.

Protip: your opinion is not a stat

I have given you of stats, you choose to ignore them. Proving i am right and you crows flogs have nothing to back up crouch with other then "he is playing for a good team lol"

Stats you have given us:

1. A useless 'players haven't kicked goals on him' when he isn't a key defender. Guess what, Tex has had even less goals kicked on him! Idiot.

2. DBJ has had 17 disposals a game. Which is shit.

3. Nothing else.

Yet when we provide Crouch's superior stats, they "don't matter"

If you think that Darcy (a defender) is not responsible for a man then you know nothing about football. His main role is defend and then attack. He usually gets a dangerous small forward.

I don't think you did because you said "if neutrals think crouch is better then I am bias". Where one of my last lines were "just because more people know of crouch and less people know darcy and what he can do, doesn't make him the better player".

And to your point, we are both bias to our own player. Facts are that Darcy has had 1 goal kicked on him in the last 5 weeks, he gets a large amount of ball himself and uses it incredibly well. I think you are severely overrating crouch and his impact on games. He doesn't use the ball very well, he has had 2 goal assist for the year and is sitting 133rd in the league for scoring involvement despite the fact that he averages over 26 disposals per game. He has kicked 3 goals. He is sitting 240th in the league for inside 50s despite averaging 26 disposals per game. His clearance work is okay but nothing special sitting 21st in the league (ollie wines who is having a bad year apparently is 14th). He is 94th in the league for tackles so he doesn't apply much pressure defensively.

So yes he is an overrated standard midfielder, that is not as good as DBJ

There are your stats. You can take them to the bank. Crouch is an average spud midfielder whos only ability is able to find easy disposals and stats. Meanwhile Darcy keeps his opponents quiet, gets a fair amount of ball himself and uses it extremely well (All of which have been proven with stats in this thread)

Cant wait to see the deflection.

Yes Crouchs stats are superior to Darcys. And no surprise, Aaron Halls stats this year are better then Shaun Burgoyne this year... Usually midfielders get more stats mate. Doesnt mean theyre better. Look at all the disposals Spud gets and the stats i have presented to you. He does nothing with it. Minimal impact on games

Hartigan, Cheney > Wingard, Wines.

So where are the key HB stats comparing DBJ to his peers?

I can't believe I just read the last 4 pages of this thread

You are like a broken record. And the most amusing thing is you actually think what you're saying has any real meaning.

Enjoy your perceived victory puffer, while the rest of us in the real world see how badly you have been proven wrong, and watch and laugh.

Lol nice deflection, ignoring the facts once again.

Why do the entire crows 6 backman rank higher in intercept marks than DBJ?

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Why do the entire crows 6 backman rank higher in intercept marks than DBJ?

Because the entire 6 crows backmen are overrated and DBJ is underrated and DBJ is the bestest

 

[Bernie L]

Cos he's a spud

Ollie Wines is averaging less and going by averages which anyone who wasnt trying to fudge for arguments sake would do crouch is equal 14th.

He is only alright, definitely not amazing just okay. But to your point okay then take the clearance out of it. It is known that crouch gets easy touches, overall he should be getting clearance numbers when he gets the easy touches

That 1 thing doesn't change the rest of the stats. He is still an overrated, standard midfielder as those stats prove

 

[Bernie L]

I know right what crap drafting on the crows part. You pick spud crouch over Darcy. Also you trade off a genuine star and all you get back is spud crouch LOL

We passed on Davey Jones cos he was just a common back flanker with no upside.
