Think hitouts, just like we know with Sandi, can often be an overrated stat given it’s hardly awarded to the clear ruck. Gawn probably had 5 hit outs to advantage with 45 hit outs to his name.

Gawn won 54.5% of his hitouts with 9 to advantage from 36 hitouts total.
Darcy won 33.3% of his hitouts with 6 to advantage from 16 hitouts total.
Both with 4 clearances each.
ignoramus I think the stats back up your thoughts. Darcy has a really good hitout to advantage ratio - when he wins it, it's often to advantage.

We can't play finals and Jlo is ahead of the curve as to where we should be. Resting guys like Fyfe and Mundy whilst having a look at the likes of Valente and North make a lot of sense. Can't imagine any players wanting to have a spell though.
This is the game you would imagine he might try a player or two. It has been a lot of games in a short period of time and plenty of the team must be feeling it, I also remember Justin hinting that a player or two will be considered this week.
After this week it is a 8 day break so I reckon they would all be up for playing.
I’d rest a mid for Valente and Lobb if Meeks is available.
Definitely Duman out for Watson
No stutter at all. Mystifying.

I don't agree, Cox is improving rapidly, I can see a scenario where he overtakes Hamling, especially given the injury.
He's having a laugh. Pressure does weird things. If he is going to stutter, we should at least get him to run in a straight line during/after the stutter. The stutter looks horrid, but Kennedy sort of does it as well (and used to be worse, from memory). The main problem with Lobb is how he veers off sharply to the right. The #1 thing which contributes to missing set shots is not running in straight at the goal umpire.
If it’s performance pressure, which let’s be honest affects most men at some stage, then surely that’s just a matter of time for a sports psychologist to help with.

With all the bars and nightlife in Melbourne, how does anyone find the time to engage in rumour files?
I've figured it out. He wants to kick across his body. The stutter is his way of making all the steps in his set shot routine without going so far offline that the ump calls play on!
He is very important to our future. Pick #4 might get it done for Sydney.

Only time will tell.Lets wait for the selections against North Melbourne.I am sure if you had a local drafted by a interstate club who you had a high opinion of you would have the same thoughts if the WA guy was in the same position.

I honestly hope he does get a game. I hate the thought of players potentially being delisted without getting to play a game or two on the big stage. Who knows he might play a blinder and we will all be singing his praises.
If he kicks 5 goals against North he'll be the new Cam McCarthy. So we'll likely still delist him.
I'd be very happy with that headline.

ryan nyhuis kick 4 goals on debut against them after never playing as a forward before
I agree with you on this but who knows what they’ll be like in JLo’s system. Our skills have shown a lot of improvement around the ground this year. I would expect we’d see the same with Hammer and Moose.
