2019 AFL Rd 1: Carlton vs Richmond at the MCG: Post Game Passion

[sydneybluesfan]

But how many of those points were from stoopid, cheap turnovers by our players?

Once the ball is turned over cheaply, all our players are generally out of position vs a vs defensive structures and it only takes one extra attacker to all but ensure an easy goal....

I think [but I'm no expert in Champion data] the way to read that data is overall they scored 67 points from our turnovers - which can happen anywhere on the ground. Some of the 54 points they scored from defensive mid field chains would come from a turnover in our i50 that they rebounded to score. But I think this also includes where they take possession in our i50 from a clearance or stoppage, or a kick out.

So there is some duplication in the figure, but I don't know how much. But it correlates with my memory of the game - they moved the ball from our i50 to score at their end on multiple occasions, and I can hardly remember us doing it cleanly all night.
