Hrovat has played 1 or 2 good games over his 30 game career so far, and has been horribly inconsistent. He should improve next year at North given more opportunity, but that's very speculative and the stats so far back it up. He managed 4 games in 2016, 7 in 2015. That's hardly a sign that he's anything more than a borderline first 22 player at absolute best.I'm sorry.... Is that all you've got?
You said his goals weren't meaningless, I just showed you they were.
8 of his 44 goals came against good teams at an average of approx .45 per game.
Membery is a superstar because he kicked 5 against Essendon, yet Hrovat is a spud because he got 28 possessions against the same team. What about his 30 & 1 game against the Swans a year or so ago, does that one count?
Hrovat has never had close to the season that Membrey (who plays a far more difficult postion) did last year, and 2 decent meaningless practice matches against VFL opposition does not override that.
Also worth noting that Hrovat also kicked 3 goals in an intra-club practice match at the Dogs last year, which equalled his entire tally for the year in the actual AFL.
