Injury Practice Match Vs Geelong: Krakouer ACL -Decision Mon 27/2 = Traditional repair

It would be interesting to see Krak's 2011 disposal efficiency compared to other permanent small forwards like Milne, Rioli, Ballantyne etc, because if I'm not wrong, kicking points also reduces that percentage, which a player like Sinclair didn't have to worry about playing half back most of the time.
 
I realise that!

I bet though that if Sinclair were to go at a similar rate by foot this year people would rip into him for being a turnover merchant.

At the same time they'd ignore other things like pressure acts and loose ball gets, which have arguably become better measures of small forwards these days. I don't expect any player to come in and have the impact Krak had last year, but I would like to see them at least given a chance before they are condemned as being way off a guy that's had one above average year in 10 seasons of footy....
 
Re: Practice Match Vs Geelong: Krakouer

Krackouer went at only 57% by foot last year. The only player to be worse by foot on our list was Rounds which is hardly fair on a first year player who only played 5 games. So whether he actually is way better than Sinclair is debatable.

Well that is not Flash.

Sinclair just does not have Disposal Problems, I am not 100% sure about his Footy Smarts

I think thats what we are aiming at. How many forward match winners do we have? Remember Krakouers 2011 grand final? He would be written into Collingwood folklore had we won. Krakouer was the reason we were in touch at 3qtr time and probably the reason in the end we weren't pantsed. I really do hope we see him back come finals time.
