Bartram and Rivers who over the years have been constantly bemoaned for their disposal efficiency are currently second and third behind only Frawley in this stat at the club.

 

A sad reflection that the stat leaders are all defenders.

Barty is the rock.

 

What's the disposal efficiency of their kicks, though?


Does that mean they have improved or that the rest have gone backwards? :)

Given that we've got the worst kicking efficiency in the competition I'm not sure I'm getting too excited.

Nice to stay positive but it's a bit like being told everyone you've ever cared about has died in a plane crash but the airline has decided to give all the surviving family members a small pack of free peanuts. But yah for Bartram and Rivers new found ability to handball instead of kicking to increase their disposal percentage. I wonder if a handball is considered to have it the mark if it goes in the general direction of a teammate, irrespective of whether they're free or not?

 

Jamar cannot hit a target by palm ,fist or foot-many going straight to the opponent .

Morton same .

Sorry to spoil the party.

Barty and Rivers have both improved by foot this year, or at least it seems that way. Can anyone provide efficiency stats from 2011 and compare 2012 to verify whether we are clutching at straws or seeing genuine improvement?


I still think Bartram is an average player though, despite how many sideways 20metre kicks in defence hit the target. If Frawley is such a naturally good user of the ball, why is he so reluctant to get rid of it I wonder?

Misleading statistic, I think. I don't know how efficiency is calculated but defenders at all clubs appear to have greater efficiency according to the stats provided than forwards and defenders. Perhaps forwards are marked tougher with any shot at goal which does not score a goal being marked as a fail.

Rivers has always been a better kick that Bartram. I don't know why people don't like his kicking.

Bartram has obviously worked really hard to improve his kicking. His action to me looks better, especially when he has a little time, and he's hitting the mid-range targets that he used to butcher.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
