Watching teams that are playing finals and thinking about our season I've had a nagging thought that I thought was worth a thread. Keen for a discussion that leaves out personalities, feuds, and rumour, and to try and keep it evidence based etc, aspirational I know.
Anyway was looking for stats based on effective handballs. We often talk about needing better skills by foot etc but I'm beginning to think it is not our footskills leading to turnovers as much as it poorer hand-balls. I couldn't find a stat for effective handballs, just overall disposal efficiency, with the team distributed pretty much as expected. (May and Lever rule here).
In summary I don't think our disposal by foot is as bad as we think, I do however think we need to improve in handball. Thoughts?
