AFL 2023 Preliminary Final Carlton vs Brisbane Post Game Prognostications

[LP]

That used to be the case but he has many more mis-kicks these days.

Many more?

I don't really agree, perception is a funny thing.

For example, we say McGovern is elite, most would agree. Yet Weitering averages more kicks than McGovern (10.2 / 8.7), has a higher kick efficiency (75% / 71%) and a very similar clanger rate (2.1 / 1.9). Are you surprised?

Even so, I think McGovern remains my better of the two but Weitering isn't bad like you may think.

I suspect the where and when influences perception, and when things go wrong on the last line it's probably a nightmare for fans!

I have more memories of McGovern opening up the opposition for a score, yet the elimination final kick from Weiters to Hollands is as good if not better than any.
