webmaster / mods ---- 'dislike' / thumbs down button desperately needed

It might defuse some of the bickering since it doesn't give the poster of the 'disliked' post any words which he feels obliged to rebut.

Not always. According to the stats on effective rebuttal, 73.8% of statistics offered as proof in support of a particular point of view may or may not be effective. This means that only 26.2% are either totally effective or totally ineffective. I'm not sure what this means in terms of effective disposal but it does bring into question the veracity of your assertion.

Yeah, the stats on ineffective stats are the most effective stats ... :wub:

Since David King declared himself as the stats King I no longer take any notice of stats. He reminds me of a bloated Beaver.

Which is probably just a Wombat. 

 

Goold old Kingy, the bloke that bashed a kebab stand owner with his mates after a night on the drink.  Great guy.

Stop it You're confusing me. I'm now 83.1777289% more confused than I was before I tried to be funny. I wish I hadn't ventured into numbers. I'm an English teacher; mathematics gives me a headache.

Fast. Or slow like Greg Williams?

Spatial perception gives some players time.

This is why the likes of Jack are elite. 

I love Jack, but mostly on a sentimental level. There's no way he's an elite player. I'm sorry. That word is bandied around a little too much. I watched him in 2010 and 2011. He was a promising youngster with good skills, good decision making and a ferocious attack at the ball and man. 

I hope he can become a solid role player back there. I don't see him in our midfield though. At least not on the front line, but he's a smart footballer and I hope that gets him through.

He mentioned  in a post match interview  with burgs that he played wing but saw himself moving into the mid as an inside mid.

I see him as our sam mitchell. Tough inside mid, good by hand, good vision and a good organiser

Oliver will be our Sam Mitchell. Trenners has never won it enough to be a Mitchell type player.

Tyson was sublime. That was vintage Dom Tyson, like the guy who arrived at our club and looked an A grader.

Just a matter of consistency with Dom before he solidifies his A grade status and with Viney being tagged, it means he and Oliver will prove to be really troublesome for oppositions. You can't tag them all.

Just a little perspective..

Trengove 82

Tyson 60 games

Viney 59 games

Brayshaw 24 games

Stretch 17 games

Oliver 8 games

Petracca 6 games

All under 25 years and all yet to hit the 100 game mark. Looking at that it has serious potential to become a lethal potent midfield brigade.

Viney and Tyson are now showing what a couple years in the system will do to you if developed properly. I cannot wait to see what Brayshaw Tracca Oliver and Stretch will do once they that get around that 50 to 70 games mark.

Made a couple of really poor errors, but seems to mostly have the speed of the game. The one other thing I would say is he's not quite up to the speed of our ball movement, but that will come. Great to see him kick that goal. Hope he can run out the four quarters today.

Was probably our best in the quarter that won the game for us.

I'm still off him. I still think the lack of pace will break him. But I have a glimmer of hope that he finds a Mitchell-style engine to be a useful in and under. His goal, and then his long kick to Watts, on a day when we showed one of our big weaknesses (skill) was why. Too skilled and smart not to be given the time to find out what he's got when he's 100%.

His kicking looked like it lacked penetration which was worrying, given the past, but his tackling and positioning were first class. Jury still out I think, but he's making progress no doubt. Fingers crossed for Jack, we couldnt have a better bloke around the club.

This is my Dees highlight of 2016. I am  a huge fan of Trenners, and watching him kick that goal gives me a huge dose of satisfaction. 

The game today must have felt so good to N Jones, Watts and Trenners after all the carp they have put up with at our club.

Yep. He, Gawn and Kent set us up in that second quarter.

Playing on a wing doesn't suit him. But 9 tackles is great effort.

Yep, is still as tough as any of our other guys. Needs to find a little bit of pace but is tracking well. So great to see him back out there and the boys getting around him after that goal was a beautiful sight.

So good to have Jack back...his on ground leadership is invaluable in this young team.

Watching him direct players around the stoppages was good to see along with the respect his teammates obviously have for him.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
