that is literally the worst example you could use.
bolton had 25 touches, 9 clearances and 550m gained
snelling had 14 touches, 0 clearances and 127m gained

you wanna know a joke stat? he had double tippas pressure acts, tippa gets judged very good (according to afl app), snelling got average.
Ok. Well maybe i should have checked the stats. Damn. That was my naked eye assessment without going to the stats. Haha. Put Snelling into the cannon then.
Actually don’t. I like the little bugger. Most weeks he at least has dip.

I’d say its a pretty bad move for our mental health to be comparing our guys to richmonds at this point in time

Shouldn’t be comparing anyway
Shai Bolton doesn’t play as a small fwd these days. He’s in their midfield group and at centre bounces.
Of course he’s going to get more footy, clearances and metres gained

someone will compare him to castagna soon (who’s a much, much better player)
End the experiment
is there a role at the bombers cafe?
Sobering stats.
Your reading that pressure gauge backwards. red is the best and green is worst. Anything in the yellow is great, Red is extremely rare.
Since when is green bad?

I like the guy, but he was terrible last night . For the amount of ball that went into our 50, he just couldn’t get anywhere near it. Should be dropped on that performance

Its strange but its true.
Terrible is an exaggeration. Plenty of small forwards played worse then him this week.
21 pressure acts, 5 tackles, two of them inside 50 and a good snapped goal.
And I don’t think I saw any really ■■■■■■ handballs, maybe one??
He was fine. It’s what he is.

Agree BUT NOT with Smith, Ham and Cahill being in the same side. What is it 1 win from 10 games? Something is wrong.
thats all well and good, but I use my eyes generally. not just talking about this weeks game. castagna is a far better player than snelling. far, its not even close
snelling is bog average and if he doesn’t improve he’ll be delisted, i guarantee you. like I said, if you want a guy to put on “pressure acts” just draft really fit guys and tell them to go nuts
I thought he was far more valuable earlier days when he was probably getting closer to the 20 touch and 1-2 goal game. I have good memory if him doing that a few times and that’s what he needs to be aiming his game towards
