Re: AFL Rd 16 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Richmond - WASurfer - 06-25-2024
I'm not paying too much attention to the stats these days. Saw the Champion Data AA team after round 14.....no Weitering, no Curnow, no Walsh, no Newman....and Cripps as sub or on the bench. Some of the other selections were laughable....Naughton at FF...despite missing the last 3-4 weeks with injury.

E.g Gawn is statistically the no 1 ruck, TDK's last 4 week have been off the charts, if that continues, there will be a conversation about the ruck position. He then went onto talk about FB and Weiters and stated that it was due to what they were talking about earlier (which I missed) and then I had to jump out of the car.
Point is, its not just about stat numbers per se`, the good analysers (like Hoyne) put together blocks of stats grouped in a may to tell a story or build a case for something.

Be Grundy and TDK for me in the AA team with Gawn missing out....I dont care about stats more about whats actually happening on the ground than the stat sheet.

If Weitering isn't AA in one of the key posts they should hand the keys back.

Not mark it G2C, it was that we win possession or force a stoppage on only 20% of our kicks down the line,
When you watch our games, we mostly transition the ball with short kicks, forward handpasses and breaking the lines. We also dominate clearances and go forward from stoppages, so kicks down the line aren’t all that important.
I think we need a footy stats thread …

Weiters should have been AA multiple times already, in my opinion Weiters is the best AFL KPD since Harry Taylor.
