Comparing to Buddy as how he is normal, is like comparing success with St. Kilda.
Buddy Franklin sits in 2nd place, on the behinds kicked in a game by a single player record with 11.
He kicked 2.11 against the dogs in 2007.
No, it wasn't weather related as it was played at the docklands.
Taking out his 2.11 the rest of the players managed a combined 30.12.
Buddy has kicked 6 behinds or more in a game on 16 occassions.
Yes, he gets a lot of shots on goal, but only 2 of those 16 occassions did he kick more goals than behinds.
Of people to compare Casboult to in order to get a 'normal/average' comparison with, Buddy is one of the worst.
