20% on top of Simpsons early figures are still not up to Polsons figures.
FWIW, i was never saying Polson is going to be as good as simpson, or had a better start to his career or whatever.
Simply stating that it is too early to make a definitive call on Polson based solely on his possession count at this stage, which some people are doing.
Its not just the poor possession count, he butchers most of his disposals, dont remember Simpson being such a poor user of the ball....
4 possies at 25% with 2 clangars and people rated his game :o.....and he played on Harbrow who had 24 possies.
Next time Nick Graham goes at 25% and his man has 6 times the amount of ball I expect to see the love come forth and nominate him as BOG....
Think the Herald Sun had Jack Heron as worst on ground with 22 points, Polson was equal next with 23......Heron must have played a blinder too.....
