Obviously very little. Check the stats you might find out what's really happening. It's very easy to focus on single incidents without viewing the bigger pictureBW, the Scotland figure indicates that pure stats do not always give the correct situation. If you only count clangers then Scotlands score may not look too good. But the fact that he is in the top 3 in the AFL for possessions means that even if he had a low count on turnovers/clangers per possession he would still have a high number.
eg... if a player had 80 possessions for the year to date and had 20 clangers he might be low in the ranking for clangers. Another player might have 25 clangers for the year but have 500 possessions. In the first instance the player would have a 25% clanger rating, in the second even with more clangers would only have a 5% clanger rating.
Does this make sense??? Jarusa, please HELP!
Absolutely. That's why I calculated the percentages, though I missed Scotland. His rate is 11% which is actually fairly low. Anyway I think his position as the top clanger maker in the AFL might have been taken over by a team mate of his who wears #24. His rate is 13%. Still better than a few other players who get less of the ball though.
Others:
Walker 16%
Whitnall 13%
Houla 11%
Kouta 18%
Bentick 13%
Simpson 11%
Carrazzo 11%
Thornton 10% (has less risky possessions)
McGrath 13%
De Luca 19%
Wiggins 11%
French 16%
Waite 19%
Fisher 22%
Teague 23%
McLaren 11%
O'halpin 25%
Bannister 8%
Sporn 17%
Blackwell 7%
Sol first you say Whitnall is 4th at the club then you trot out that list which shows 9 players with a higher percentage and left out a number of players including Kennedy whom you quote at 33%, Fevola 19% etc
