The number of one percenters tells us little about their quality. As I understand it, one percenters officially include knock-ons, spoils, smothers, and shepherds although coaches also use a number of other measures when they speak of one percenters. Only knock-ons specifically have a team advantage requirement built in to their definition. According to the stats I can find Oscar chalked up 4 one percenters v Adelaide (I presume mostly/all spoils however no data I found had the individual one percenter stats listed). Spoils can be a dangerous thing. He also had 4 clangers (gives possession directly to the opposition), 9 kicks and 2 handballs (63.63% DE by my math but afl.com.au have him at 72.7%), 8 uncontested possessions with 3 contested, 3 marks, 2 frees against (0 for) and 3 tackles @ 95% time on ground. For what it's worth his afl fantasy and supercoach scores were 46 and 38 (84 total). Only Spargo and Hannan totalled lower (83, 75) however adjusting their scores up to Oscars time on ground puts Spargo at 114 and Hannan at 86. Oscar needs to adapt, and quickly, because I think Goodwin rates resilience as highly as 'hardness'.

The red button. It used to be a thing on Fox many moons ago and it was bliss. Sadly too many people used it so it was canned.

Never mind leucopogon - Round 18 v WCE is where it's at. Got my flights and road trip sorted yesterday.

It's very easy to set up your account to see every new post on the site. Exposure would increase on the initial posting but afterwards it would mostly just get buried beneath AFL posts. I think organic growth from a dedicated section is best long term.

Rest in peace Col.

Demanding sources is a great way to get them shut down (at minimum.)

Yup. All the guys from last week

Away from the limelight, I think Oscar had some outstanding involvements when called upon. Similar for Petracca and Tyson. Our collective inabily to finish notwithstanding.

Drop and give the team 20 for that one. ?

Delayed flight over Cancelled flight back Just got in the door Oh yeah:

See you all there. Looking forward to the match and will probably have a look at the Perth Demons v South Fremantle on the Saturday (Current coach: Earl Spalding).

Theatre. If a player threw the ball up like that at any other part of the ground it wouldn't go up 5cm before being called a throw. If a defender did it they'd be laughed out of the league.

Throw of the year.

I haven't bothered to look at it again but my initial take on Gawn having to go off was a Geelong player deliberately backing into him and slamming the back of his head into Gawns nose. Correct/incorrect?

... think my tickets to Perth for round 22 might be worth more than the suprisingly small amount I paid.

26 possessions in the first half (13/13), 2 marks and a goal.

Thankfully Territory Day was last weekend else those scrub fires would've been the least of the players worries

Not much of a music video.. but a great track.

Gotta love the media outlets that couldn't be bothered using any of the multitude of cleanskin images of Pert a 5 second internet search provides but rather decided that Collingwood sponsers deserved more exposure.

I watched the first season of 'Future Man' recently. Bite sized episodes (~26 minutes) of crass, cringe-worthy excellence! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4975856/videoplayer/vi1185265689?ref_=tt_ov_vi

Coaching directives could also be at play here. We've had trouble stopping opposition run-ons and it's less costly to attempt to improve on our tempo control when we have a decent lead.

Perhaps our manic running and heavy contested work doesn't allow for it yet? In those new stats we're generally as a team travelling further and faster than our opposition. One aspect anyway.
