Player Watch Nick (AFL MVP) Daicos

[WalterBlaknWhte]

Criticising a 28 disposal, 7 clearance, 4 score involvement game is ****ing ludicrous. Go outside and touch some grass or something.

Love the final sentence

So pastoral

Surely better to smoke the grass…

Gotta touch it first!

 

[sr36]

Yes I do.

It would be worse for IQ to make a joke about it if they weren't doing something about it. It would be just taking the piss out of a teammate.

Let's see when he finally takes one if players get around him.

Mates taking the piss out of each other. Heaven forbid!

Maybe he snorted some that had Roundup on it or something

Oh well, at least he's not the worst

is Bobby Hill the worst? We have a few who cant kick a set shot for shit

Charlie Cameron, who has been absolutely butchering them this year.

Yet you’d still pick either player first pick, every week..

This stat along with his hit out and contested marking deficiencies is why I think he’ll never make it

Sure, except those 2 stats are worthless while his poor goal kicking is quite important

The wheel turns ever so quickly in football supporter land. We have been crying out for a bull in the middle , a youthful one at that. Then they pick him to bits about what he in their eyes supposedly cant do.

Goes to show people will complain about anything if its possible

I loved Taylor Adams as a Pie but he could butcher it big time, I was always concerned with the ball in his hands. Never that with Ned, he passes ‘the eye test’ comfortably. Yep I’ve seen some scraggy ones but then I’ve seen Nick do the same as well.
Ned is a long awaited blessing for our midfield.

Isn't every shot at goal an expected goal? Would the stat be more accurately described as 'conversion rate'?

Expected goals sounds a bit like the proposed tax on unrealised gains.... very spurious.

There’s 2 things Peter has to put on the agenda for the family meeting is his goal kicking especially how good Peter was and stop whinging at the umpires every time he goes for the ball yes he does get scragged just suck it up one day they might look after him

Problem is Nick is so good every shot he has is "expected". Victim of his own success. TBH i haven't even noticed his poor goalkicking this year. Its an abnormality based on some of the ridiculous goals hes kicked previously. Just another stat 10 games into a year we can froth over angrily

Except it's a clear aberration from his usual markers there. His accuracy is better than Noah Anderson, Callaghan and Serong, and marginally worse than LDU and McCluggage.

 

[adamov13]

All bullsh!t aside, I am just happy we are winning without Nick having to carry us over the line. Great signs as far as I am concerned. What happens once he catches fire again? Massive upside for us.

Are u measuring accuracy in terms of expected return vs actual return or just dividing his goals by behinds?
