one of those games i listed above he had 23 uncontested possessions, and still only went at 63%...
given that was his BEST DE% in the month i looked at, its not far off accurate in saying you may as well flip a coin when giving him the ball, as to whether the team will retain possession post his disposal.

Aren't these stat's a little out of context though? Our midfielders have clearly been instructed to move the ball long down the line.. The plan isn't always to hit up a target and retain possession, but to create another stoppage with territory gained. I'm not saying his disposal has been good, but if retaining possession isnt the player or the coaches Intention then blind reading a DE% stat isn't really telling you how effective the player has been with the ball.

a 40+m kick to a contest is deemed effective

How about a 40+ m kick to the boundary?

Shame that Lemmens did the exact same injury. Had surgery this time. Did he have surgery on it the first time around?

Sam Collins is sidelined.

Sam’s undergone an MRI yesterday after experiencing a little bit of low-grade hip pain,” Bull said.


“We’ve found that there’s a stress reaction in Sam’s femur so unfortunately that means we’re going to need to offload him for a little period of time before we can then reload him and get him back into training.

Collins is a massive loss, 2 KPD out for an extended period of time.

Sam Day or more likely Burgess could find a reprieve and come in to play KPD. Not many other options.

Touk is touch and go.

Hanley unlikely to be up for this week.

Crossley, Fletcher and Ah Chee all back and healthy this week which is good news. Good boost for the reserves.

Collins being out is ****ed. I wonder if Day comes in for him?

Huge, huge loss.

 

[Sunny_]

Or maybe Burgess goes back? He looked okay in that role in the 2s. Be keen to see how he goes there.

 

[TheSecondComing]

 

[SunsGal]

It's where he has always played... add some confidence from the 2s hopefully. I'd give him a go

 

[gcsunsfc]

Stress reaction in a femur is very unusual. Can’t say I’ve ever seen that before.
Tibia and feet sure but femur seems very strange.

Just watching VFL Gameday with that imbecile Nepotism McLachlan hosting it and on comes some young lady with an injury report and I thought oh good I’ll get an Ainsworth update
All they did was talk about VFL players like Guthrie and Scrimsook who had a headache and a question on Daniher’s genetics but nothing about Ben.
VFL media sucks.
Go shove it Gil.

 

[Supersuns]

Ainsworth out 6 weeks with foot

Ainsworth out 6 weeks with foot

Disappointing for the young man. Need our young mid/fwds like Ben in the game not in rehab.

Brodie, shoenfield, Dawson, Nutting, Heron time to prove their worth.
