Agree that Gibbs peak performance was statistically better on-ball, but I am not sure that is where he was consistent, and I wouldn't necessarily think peak statistical performance means best football. A lot of those high ranking games were mid-field shootouts. But that 2014 game on Goodes is a prime example, not a midfield shootout, he stopped a significant opponent and won plenty of football in the process.
Did MMs stop start game plan suit Gibbs better?
