Which current MFC players hold the highest and lowest possessions on AFL debut for the club



Recommended Posts

Posted

The following questions revolve around the current list, so ignore players that exited before 2008.

Which current MFC player polled the highest amount of possessions on debut with 20?

Which current MFC player polled the lowest amount of possessions on debut?

Which current MFC player kicked the most goals on debut with just 2!!?

Can Addam Maric break any of these records? As you can see, there haven't been any amazing debuts statistically or goal kicking wise when you look at the current list.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brent Moloney actually gained 24 possessions (and 3 brownlow votes) in his MFC debut in 2005 V Essendon, but he doesn't fit the above criteria as he had already debuted for Geelong in 2003.

Nathan Carroll of all players holds the record for most marks on debut with 6 back in round 4 2003 V Geelong

I'll post answers in a day or so.

I'd guess that Ricky Petterd had about 20 possies on debut, as for the lowest, Col (both Sylvia & Garland) had one handball I think. No idea about the goal kicker, but I'd guess Newton.

Jared Rivers didn't touch the ball on his debut against, IIRC.

Correct!!!! rd 19 2003 V Geelong

Now just the goal question? Which current player kicked 2 goals on debut?

Wow this hasn't lasted long :lol:

Sylvia wasn't far behind with 1 handball and one 1 tackle on debut.

Bigfooty loved it.


Posted
Dunn kicked 2 goals against Geelong rd 6 2006 on debut

correct!!!!

So if Maric gets 21 touches, 7 marks and 3 goals, he's smashed the record of all debutants.

No pressure :lol:

Most touches - Petterd (20) rd 5 2007 V Sydney

Least touches - Rivers (0) rd 19 V Geelong

Most Goals - Dunn (2) Rd 6 2006 V Geelong

Most Marks - Carroll (6) Rd 4 2003 V Geelong

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what the greatest debut by a MFC player would have been?

What was Jako's debut like?

Don't forget that he also knocked out Leigh Colbert in the dying seconds of the game. Not many players can boast that on debut.

Also, when Sylvia played his second game a few weeks later, he kicked a goal with his first ever kick but this somehow seems to be bypassed by those in charge of record books.

Didn't Daren Cuthberson kick 7 @ 6 in his fist two games?

Jakovich debuted in a game vs WC in Perth where the whole team managed 2 goals in a 10 goal + hiding, I don't think he kicked either goal

I think I remember that game, we had something like 4 key forwards playing, Lyon, Bennett, Schwartz and Jako. The day was a disaster but it signaled a new exciting era for our forwards.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
