Hendo's number are heavily padded by the Round 7/8 games against the Bulldogs and Geelong where he got a lot of it but was pretty shit (imo).

Round 7: 554
Round 8: 590
Round 9: 304
Round 10: 197
Round 11: 299

So he stood up in the "big" games against "good" opposition when plenty of his teammates didn't is my take on what you've put up there???

No, he got the ball, panicked, bombed long to our disadvantage and turned the ball over. Lots of metres, shit effectiveness. Disposal efficiency should rely on maintaining possession, and not just discount if the opposition intercepts or takes a mark.
 
It would be interesting to see a measure of metres gained that takes into account turnovers. i.e net metres gained, where, if you turn the ball over, the metres gained by the opposition from your turnover count against your metres gained.

Running 10 metres and then kicking the ball 50 metres doesn't mean much if you kick the ball to the opposition and they take it down the other end and score from it.

Do the same measures, whether flawed or not, apply to all players?

If yes, your point is moot

Yes of course they do, but that is my point. The measures are flawed. There are some players who are getting 85% disposal efficiency who hit their targets 85% of the time, that is, their targeted player takes a mark or at least keeps possession. That is what disposal efficiency should measure. At this point in time, kicking to a disputed contest counts as an efficient disposal. Henderson kicks to a contest and gets an effective disposal to his name, but it's not really effective. Do you see what I mean?
 
For those struggling with opening both eyes:

The 2 most outside players in the league are widely thought to be Lachie Whitfield and Lewis Jetta.

Using 2015 as a guide (2016 still small sample)

Hendo 19.53 touches, 1.35 tackles and 28.5% possessions contested

Whitfield 21.67 touches, 1.81 tackles and 24.7% possessions contested

Jetta 18.25 touches 3.13 tackles and 22.2% possessions contested

Let's add in Brodie Smith whilst we're at it

Smith 18.19 touches, 1.86 tackles and 31.1% possessions contested

2016 numbers aren't very different

What does this tell us?

That Hendo's "contest" rate is directly in line with the sort of player he is meant to be. I.e. An outside player

And that this doesn't tell us much about the effectiveness of an outside player.
 
Yes of course they do, but that is my point. The measures are flawed.

No your analysis is flawed.

As long as the measure is the same, the relative and proportionate ranking applies to players.

The pros and cons, assuming they are real, advantage and disadvantage all players.

if you can "cheat" to get better numbers then everyone can cheat. That just means the absolute gross is inflated not the relative ranking is wrong.

And Hendo's DE is just fine.
 
Injury stats for different clubs...Wow....Plenty of variance!

Ryan Burton a bit of a worry?

*Placed on the club's long-term injury list
 
With regards to disposal efficiency

This is the definition:

Effective disposals are made up of effective long kicks, effective short kicks and effective handballs. An effective long kick is one that is 40 metres to a 50/50 or better for the team. An effective short kick is one that results in a teammate's possession who was the intended target of the kicker. A handball to a teammate that hits the intended target to the team's advantage is recorded as an effective handball.

And Hendo ranks top 5 for the club in DE.

Alternatively it could be that those teams clamped down on Smith and were happy to let Hendo run free knowing that he wouldn't hurt them anywhere near as much.
I'm over Hendo, we have plenty of other outside players that are actually capable of spoiling an opposition mark inside 50 when required.

So if smith kicks 50 to Tex in a 2 on 1, it's ineffective even if Tex wins the contest? Wonder how they account for bombs over the top into space.
 
Ryan Burton a bit of a worry?
He was always going to have surgery to remove the screws in his leg at some stage. The Hawks planned it so that he would do the preseason, get to have a taste with some matches, then have the screws removed and be right to go for a full preseason. I don't think the plan was for him to come back at all this season but I might be wrong

I don't know for certain, but I would think if Tex wins the contest, then it has resulted in being better than 50/50 for the team.
 
If Smith is kicking to a double teamed target, how much credit should he get for that?

Wouldn't he have been better off picking out the open man
I agree. Just wondering if it's based on the setup or outcome of the contest.

Apologies for going offline for a while. Damn life stuff got in the way. But fear not. I'm back... With three weeks worth of delicious stats. Since I've been away, we've seen Smith reclaim his mantle as metres gained guy, Talia become top dog for intercept marks, Tex looking to claim the crown for score involvements, Jacobs do some mighty fine tap work to advantage, Hendo's figures slide and our former captain put in a decent effort before a stinker sent him back to the twos.

So here we go. After Round 11:
