Was having a quick look at "raw possession" stats for the chief midfielders for a couple of teams, and we do not fare very well.
Even though we play a possession style game we really are way behind some of the other Clubs.
If we took hard ball gets into account, we would probably fare much worse.
Quick sample of Brisbane Vs Port for 2003
Voss(25 games)_535
Lappin(22)_562
Black(26)_634
Akermanis(25)_452
Voss had injury problems, and Aker is not always in the midfield.
Nick Stevens(23)_555
Josh Carr(23)_426
Kane Cornes(22)_281
Peter Burgoyne(20)_426
Roger James(17)_327
Jarrad Schofield(23)_444
Even if we include Josh Francou, his best was 528 in 2002.
It shows where we fall behind wrt the better teams.
