Wet Day Stats - Back CFC

[No SPIN]

Just looked up Pro-Stats, and over the course of the season we smash GEEL on all the following per game stats -rank in brackets:
Clearances - COll (4) - GEEL (16)
Tackles - COLL(4) - GEEL (13)
1percenters - COLL(2) - GEEL(10)
Contested Possession diffential - COLL(4) - GEEL(10)
1st Possession - COLL(4) - GEEL (15)
Re the later we ranked 15th in Hitouts - but still get 1st possessions.
Therefore the ruck dual is irrelevant.
These STATS give me huge confidence for our strengths particularly as they will be very important in the Wet.

 

[Jelly Bean]

Hmm, yes, a little bit reassuring, but I am more concerned about the following stat for 2011.

Geel 2, Coll 0.

Fingers crossed that results / stats during the year don't have an impact in the game...

1990 going into GF - ESS 2, Coll 0

Have some faith son!!!

 

[Snoop Dog]

are those stats right - if they are there are some pretty compelling ones. The one that worries me is the # in50's we have had last 2 games v them

 

[rose jam]

we're still the best clearance and contested possession side going around

and that is a big stat but I would be keen to see what it is like vs Geelong in the 2 previous games.

They didn't beat us by 16 goals though.

And it was 2-1, we had beaten them by 10 goals in the semi.

 

[Old Spice]

Are you saying all those stats are based on wet weather games in 2011?

Sub FFS the 16 goal margin is totally irrelevant, we put the cue in the rack after 1/2 time when they got away from us.

No - am just saying they will be important on a WET Day.
They are stats for the entire 2011 season from Pro- Stats.com.au

Our wet weather champs are Daisy and I expect Trav's iron tallons to nab a bunch which means launches into the forward 50.

At the ground I'd love to have Fas and Blair there to muscle through for some quick shots. Not a disadvantage at all for us.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Already knew we were the better wet weather team.

Hence why I couldnt understand the imps (not gimps, imps) saying the weather would suit Geelong.

I told you...you've gone soft Ed...welcome back to the land of positive thinking.

You know we will win in the wet.

Go Pies

It makes it a lot harder for the Geelong defenders to get the big long kick out of the backline if it's wet.

We have played some of our best football in the wet, Kangaroos game springs to mind.

This.

When the Eagles served up their half-pressure in the second qtr last weekend, Geelong bombed it out of defence straight to the opposition a few times.

We also thumped Port Adelaide in the rain.

WE WILL F'KING WIN THIS

Pies back to back

 

[Old Spice]

Not having Shaw was a big problem I think for round 24. We just could not get it out of defence and sitting behind the goals that was very clear.

With Shaw, Davis and O'Brien blocking from defence, I can see us running it out of there much more effectively. I really think that was our overarching problem in rd 24.

If we can get it to Daisy and then to Trav on high half forward. I back our smalls in Blair and Fasolo to hold it in much more effectively and score.

Collingwood will romp it

I have a feeling we are in for a nailbiter

GOD NO

I simply could not take another nailbiter...drawn GF, close Prelim, I was sh*tting my pants in the west coast final as well...

Well the 2nd Game would make the Stats Usless

Sure Do - We kept them to 3 Goals all game

Listen that is enough of the nailbiting finishes. I had a migraine during the entire game and could not even look at the tv directly for the second half. I threw up very late in the last and can not really recall most of the last quarter. Problem for me was I kept screaming for the entire game despite the pain.

I can not have that again.
