The Clutch Shot?

I like Jack Viney but it neatly sums our forward woes when the coaches think our most reliable set shot is a dodgy left footer who struggles from 40m+. 
He has kicked 32.29 from his 120 games

Around 40m or closer i’d go T Mac. Over 40 I’ll choose Hunt, he holds the clutch award from 2019. 

 

I'm going Salem within 45m.

Outside 45m I'd go a bit of a roughy and say Steven May who has a beautiful and long kick.

My future up and comer however is Trent Rivers and I think he could quickly become the best kick in our side.

For set shots he’s one of our worst.

He is a bit like Maxy in so far as you put him within 15 - 20m straight in front and he gets the yips.  Further out than that, or hard up against the boundry right in the pocket, I think they go all right.


If it's from the boundary, then Maxy is Da Man.

I can't work out if this clip shows a replay or the second of these goals that Max kicked from the same spot in the space of about 5mins.

The spray he gives the Bombers fan afterwards is gold and would be worth while setting up Max to kick for goal just to get up opposition supporters.

Melbourne Goals Behinds Other Total shots Accuracy %
Jayden Hunt 18 10 4 32 56.3
Christian Petracca 17 10 7 34 50
Sam Weideman 11 8 4 23 47.8
Tom McDonald 18 15 6 39 46.2
Jake Melksham 10 5 7 22 45.5
Jeff Garlett 9 9 3 21 42.9
James Harmes 10 15 4 29 34.5
 

Those stats say Weideman and so do i. If he gets a go this year it will become obvious....

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
