excellent stat table and is probably the best measure of accuracy.

I wonder what it would show for 2022

That goal kicking accuracy is a big improvement from last year. It's a key reason why we belted some teams like the Swans by 50+, and it's actually the main reason we beat the Tigers too as they beat us everywhere except the scoreboard due to inaccuracy.

Hats off the Choco Williams for his work on our goal and field kicking accuracy and the players for working hard on this important aspect of the game.

Our accuracy holds us in good stead to knock over Collingwood IMO.

Can Mark please spend some time with Max, and Max spend time with Mark.

Give Choco anything he wants. The only way I 'll accept him leaving now is for another head coaching job.

Of course, at this early stage of the season, if you've kicked, say 15.4, you'll beat all those above hands down, but not appear on the list.

Actually, Fritta is 16.4, (80%), and should be on top of that chart, while the Chin is 13.2 at 87%. Which one would you rather have kicking for your life? I think I'd take either.

Of course that doesn't factor in actual total shots, but you'd have to think if you're kicking with that accuracy, you're not going to have too many complete misses. I can't remember any from those two, but it's possible that there were a couple. 

Fritsch hasn't properly missed a set shot this season. He's credited with 1, but that was the highly dubious one after the siren when the score review guy had clocked out for the evening. It was gun barrel straight. Going to spit my beer out when he finally does miss one. 

A reason for our accuracy is, like 2021 we are centering the ball deep i50 which is great for our small/medium players or anyone who marks. 

It certainly beats the wide boundary or the 45-50 mtr shots from last year

Unfortunately statistics have a poor record since distance and angles are not taken into account along with points where the opposition force the ball thru for a behind are not removed from the accuracy counts.

We also don't know what the author's definition of "no score" means. For example, does it include kicks that fall short...but if so, how does he know whether the kicker deliberately held back on the kick to have it land at the top of the square? Nevertheless, whatever methodology is being used would be the same for all teams, so I think the data is still meaningful.

Jamie Elliott 25% wow!

I'm flabbergasted Fritta has kicked as many as 4 behinds. He's been deadly accurate this year.

Come a long way since 2019 when he kicked 22.24

Seems so easily forgotten.

Fritsch at 16.4... I know he probably hasn't had 20 set shots yet due to injury, but boy oh boy can he kick.

Even better, Chandler on 13.2!

Trac still a way to go at 8.6. But he finished last year at 19.31, so a definite improvement!

Yep, he’s cost a lot of people same game multis this year.

Forgive me if my maths is awry, but in my day 16 plus 4 equalled 20. So if Fritta has kicked 16 goals 4 behinds why is he not on the list?

You will see that the list only weights 6kg. That's enough for 12 players. So Fritta, because his number is 31, won't fit.

An alternative explanation is the the twit doesn't show the entire image until you open the twit and then open the image inside it, but that's a bit of a long shot.

I think they mean set shots. Fritta has kicked a lot on the run this year, rather than from marks.... more than in previous years I think.

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
