The 2017 Rolling All-Australian Thread

I'm not saying Seb has definitely been better, but his disposal is a lot better than you're giving him credit for. Comfortably our most reliable kick imo, ahead of Billings, Newnes and Roberton

I haven't watched a lot of St. Kilda this year but on the weekend I'm pretty sure I remember the commentators saying he had a 0% Kicking Efficiency in the first quarter or most of it on the weekend.

My comment was probably more relates to Oliver, but in terms of hurt factor I'd still take Murphy. His side step and delivery inside 50 is elite

 

[Art Vandelay_]

He's one of the most underrated players in the comp but I don't think his touches hurt the opposition as much as rival midfielders do who are also in the running for spots, similar to why I wouldn't have Taylor Adams in the team despite being statistically brilliant. It's good to see he's finally becoming a consistent footballer, and he's an extremely handy third mid.

I'd say he's quite damaging with ball in hand actually. Best kick in the team and his forward 50 delivery is very good.

Wood > Hoewe, Laird, Docherty and Yeo

His last month has been great.

His last month has been great.

Those four have comfortably had better 9 game seasons.

Yet you have pendles who's had some blinders mixed with some ordinary

 

[Forward Press]

Doesn't change the fact that Wood is not in the same tier as those four at the moment.

What midfielder hasn't?

Imagine if Eddie Betts had a 24 possession game where he kicked 5 goals 4

Yep, Garlett is definitely in the hunt now. 25 goals and leading all small forwards for tackles.

 

[markm106]

Garlett is having a fantastic year. Not only kicking goals. His forward pressure has been great.

These stats actually look like a better argument for Polec than Hill..

 

[ferrisb]

Also helps having an actual ruckman in Ryder palming it down their throats, rather than the inanimate carbon Lobbe of 2016.

They have a habit of winning awards...

Trent Cotchin has started pushing for selection.

Garlett is having a fantastic year. Not only kicking goals. His forward pressure has been great.

The 'what could have been' Carlton forwardline continues to grow.

Does 22 and 6 goals 2 (plus giving 1 or 2 off) count?

 

[jc12]

Rance is #1 in the league in 1%ers (spoils, smothers, shepherds, knock-on) per game and #2 in intercept possessions per game.

Franklin is #1 in the league in score involvements per game and #3 in goals per game.

But yeah, they're just getting by on reputation

its because the bombers are on a hurley>rance crusade and are offended by whatever things rance does

Wood > Hoewe, Laird, Docherty and Yeo

Wood doesn't get talked about in the same way other defenders do. Not sure why. I think he's great.

Is his teams Maxwell, Harley, etc.
