It wasn't meant as a 1 to 1 comparison.

It was about replacing an important part of your structure.

The fact we were essentially able to replace a guy of Fevs talents, should make people more agreeable when it comes to replacing/upgrading Casboult.

I couldn't care less if he's a better mark than Sticks Kernahan, a full forward's job is to hit the scoreboard.

Secondly,
Your %'s are out of whack. AFL website includes missed shots altogether.
Jack (15.14.4(oob) = 45.5%
Levi (23.13.7(oob) = 53.5%

8% difference between them, not 30.

I think you'll find Casboult has also had a few severe mis-kicks from inside F50 that failed to score but ended up being rushed, marked or punched OOB and won't be counted in those OOB stats.

I almost brought Sticks' name up before.

A lot of people thought he was a terrible kick, and he kinda was.
A lot of people remember the scores tied game against the bombers "any score will do" scenario after the siren. Out on the full.

However, i think it was the very next week that Sticks had a chance to redeem himself and kicked the winner at the death to show he can handle the pressure.

Casboult doesn't exhibit any of those signs to me, quite the opposite.

Carey missed from 20 metres dead in front in North's tragic grand final loss to Adelaide, it happens to the best of them.
When Levi has a shot from any more than 30 metres on any sort of angle at all then all you can do is hope, and if he nails it it's a nice surprise, like when he hits up a target with a field kick.
He's an excellent overhead mark, but the rest of his game is why he slipped to pick 40 in the rookie draft.
Given where he was drafted he's done pretty well actually, but it's also an indication of the glaring weaknesses in our side.

Didn't Tom Boyd kick 3.2 in the GF ?

Levi has improved, but I'm not sure you can blame his continued flakiness in front of goal to the midfield. If you look over the AFL, he's hardly Pat Malone, but it's still an area of concern. I still feel edgy when he kicks for goal, which is why I advocated playing him either in the goal square or on the wing - essentially where the effects of his strengths are maximized. and his weaknesses are minimized. Otherwise we'll be having the same discussion over and over until he gets cut, or offered a $1M per season contract by Richmond, and becomes the central plank in their charge towards a 3peat.

Is it (re the glaring weaknesses)?

Doggies won a flag without any key forward, Pies have none (Darcy who?), Shockers get by without one,....

our weakness is our midfield, Levi is the least of our concerns.

Look for a key forward he doesn't kick enough goals. That would be fine if he helped set up other goals but unfortunately his passing is worse than his goal kicking. He is a great mark but is useless when the ball hits the deck. Does he get a game at Adelaide? No. GWS? No. Geelong? No. Melbourne? No. St. Kilda? No. Richmond? Maybe.
