I'm sure Beau is he just hasn't had the minimum 30 kicks required by that table
After round 10 Beau was best in the league for retaining possession for kicks inside 50 at 80% with 26 kicks. A bit different than marks, but he would have over 30 kicks by now.

It was brilliant because he waited for Baker to dip for the free and then tackled him.

I swear there was another incident in the game where he anticipated the duck into the tackle and corrected for it as well.

Really intelligent by Lippa, I was worried that he might not have the pace for the Hill, McReery, Shoota replacement but he and Sully did really well.

Lippa is the 3rd biggest riser from round 10

3 – Patrick Lipinski (Collingwood)
“Inside the top 30 players in the comp the last six weeks, (was) outside the top 150.”

Jen2310 – I get that Champion Data provides one way of assessing player performance, but we also have to remember that statistics are only as good as the assumptions behind them, and the people collecting and interpreting the data.

If the model weights certain actions or roles more heavily than others, it can paint a very skewed picture. And unless you’ve been in the box coaching a premiership team—or even just following the game closely—you’ll know that some of the “top-rated” players according to Champion Data don’t always pass the eye test.

For example, they’ve listed two Bulldogs players in the top three, and neither is Bontempelli, who most would agree is their most impactful player. St Kilda having two of the top six also raises eyebrows. And Nick Daicos not making the top 10, despite being heavily tagged every week, just doesn’t align with what we see on the field.

Stats can be helpful, but context matters. Champion Data's player ratings, IMO, don't pass the eye test.

CD is much more useful IMO for team-related metrics. Their individual stuff is noisy

I’ve changed my mind on your use of bold font. Just reading it alone enables the reader to decipher the main message and not have to wade through the remaining tripe.
