Re: Goaltracker Reply #196 – July 16, 2017, 07:51:15 pm Not surprised to hear that stat.Can't say it matters really.There is maybe two teams a week that score over 100 points.No easy beats any more either. Quote Selected

Casboult is a good resting second ruck/forward but not a genuine KP Forward who can be relied upon....This is a bit of a misconception.We are not as bad as it appears when you break it down game by game.5 times this year we have won the inside 50 count.

Re: Goaltracker Reply #204 – July 17, 2017, 05:09:33 pm Our top 5 goal kickers are now 3 goals behind the top five of last year (assuming that the last year comparative is the whole year - Lods, can you confirm).We have both a better attack (19pts) and defence (37pts) than this time last year. 9 goals better over 15 rounds isn't much.Now that we are hit by injuries, it will be interesting to see if we fall away, like we did last year.The ability we have to butcher the ball (not skill errors - not sure if our players actually have the skills) particularly into the forward line or is amazing. I hope our delivery improves. I can forgive the defenders making some bad errors, because they seem to be consistently under high pressure with a heavy workload, thanks to some of the tripe that happens up the ground.

Re: Goaltracker Reply #205 – July 17, 2017, 05:16:34 pm Those goalkicking totals for 2016 are final figures. (22 rounds)2017 are totals after 16 games(I've added that clarification now)Wright was our leading goalkicker last year with 22Casboult and Wright have already gone past that total Quote Selected Last Edit: July 17, 2017, 05:40:03 pm by Lods

That stat would be better used in a game by game comparison also. Stats for teams vary based on game plan. Ranked against the other 17 teams will show a trend, but ranking against opponent tells a more complete story.For example, i haven't looked up the stats, but i'd suggest that Swans would be right up their in stoppage clearances despite having a poor start to the year, and missing Josh Kennedy for a few games. Reason...the style of play they play and the ground they play on. Leads to more congestion, stoppages and thus clearances.In years past, Geelong willingly gave up clearances by putting extra blokes behind the ball and swooping on the quick kick from them. Not sure if that is still the case though.Here is another stat for ya.Same deal as above but expanded further.On average, for the year we have a shot on goal (not including OOB) 44% of the time we get an inside 50.Our opponent, has a shot on goal 46% of the time.So in 100 entries inside 50, our opponent averages 2 more shots on goal compared to us. Now it could be argued that in that we'd kick the ball out on the full 2 more times out of a 100 than our opposition does. Point being, with the amount of inside 50's we get, and the amount of shots on goal that generates. We are basically on a par with our opposition. Quote Selected
Re: Goaltracker Reply #207 – July 17, 2017, 05:28:55 pm I50's mainly mean you have the ball roughly where you want it. It's not always the case that this automatically translates to a goal scoring opportunity, nor is it always the case that players are in optimum field position simply because the ball is inside 50.

Re: Goaltracker Reply #208 – July 17, 2017, 05:32:20 pm If you check out AFL tables, and use I50's as the ranking method you will see that Collingwood (for example) is 4th for i50's. Quote Selected
Re: Goaltracker Reply #209 – July 17, 2017, 05:39:25 pm @Paul....what is your point?I've just got through explaining how stats can show a style of gameplan and (in this style at least) are best suiting to 'vs opponent' comparisons.Your collingwood example is great. But they could lose the inside 50 count every week.So should it be celebrated that they are 4th?It is actually possible that a team who is last in inside 50's actually wins the inside 50 count every week too.
