see? dgaf about stats.
A vfl ladder though? hereās one he prepared earlier.
Based purely on wins/losses we are top 5 for the last 5 weeks.
Iām at the pub so for/against will have to wait until tomorrow.
Do you even Blitz?
NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD
Just play the kid. Heās worked damn hard and put together a good consistent block of footy.
canāt wait for you to be told youāre wrong.
Ridley probably has the better match up but in reality we are fark all chance of making the 8 so lets just play him if he is ready. With Redman all but done for the year Iād be be pretty keen on getting both Ridley and Francis into the team.
Top 5 teams for last 5 matches played.
- Sydney 5 wins - percentage increased 19.1% to 125.7 in this period
- Collingwood 5 wins - percentage increased 17.3% to 119.4% in this period
- Port 4 wins - 138% (percentage taking out first 8 rounds).
- North 4 wins - 123.3% (percentage taking out first 8 rounds)
- Essendon 4 wins - 114.2% (percentage taking out first 8 rounds)
The percentage of the first 2 teams I canāt be bothered calculating, but both ahead on wins and Sydneyās obviously superior, both would probably be 150% plus given Port had a percentage of 138% when their percentage improved 11.2% from 102.7% after round 8 to 113.9% after round 13.
And the good news is that we get to play all the teams above us on this table in the run home, plus Richmond and the Hawks above us.
I dare say regardless of where we finish, we will at least know where we stand compared to the best teams, for the last 14 matches at least.
Bar the 2 Adelaide games we would rather forget the first 8.
Surprising North are doing so well, if they finishes the year weāll and with their dollars in the bank its a compelling case for moving players.
Donāt get too carried away just yet, their 4 wins were over Giants (H), Dockers (A), Lions (H), Bulldogs (just). And their loss was to the Cats.
Where ours were Cats (H), Giants (A), Lions (A), Eagles (A).
Anyway, the question of who is better at the moment will be answered soon enough.
What is all this match uptalk? Francis doesnāt need a match up. He just needs a time and a place to show up. Let the kangaroos work out what to do with him not the other way around.
Giddy up
Yep, I was kinda worried with Pops retiring, Injuries and Goddard looking close to retirement. The back 6 looks covered.
and we have done it without Gleeson for all of the year and Ambrose missing a lot of footy.
Itās time. Bring this man in and reward his good form
We will regret not playing him.
Half a season of continuous senior footy this season would have set him up perfectly for 2019
Honestly I donāt think 12th is where we are really at at the moment, if you you considered the last 5 rounds from scratch over the competition we are ranked a lot higher than 12th. Its just unfortunate we had to have āTeething problemsā and āhave turned the cornerā injunctions for the first 9 rounds.
So saying that
Bring him in
Continuous footy regardless of where is important, Iām sure the club and Francis are in constant dialogue, Still plenty of footy this season at both levels.
Aaron needs to put in a poor game so he can get a look in the senior team.
