Have a look at our games this year Danny and see how often the opposition smother our kicks compared to us. In the Swans game there were a lot. The opposition players commit their body to make the difference. Dive to make the difference. Ours throw an arm up and turn their back. Even Hayward could have tried to throw himself across the boot both times he gave away 50's.
The 2nd game kid has done as many as anyone.
Until those things are important, the players are not fair dinkum.

I wonder what the cba of our mids vs north is? And what the league average is? I feel we have the same players at too many centre bounces and they are cooked by the end of the game.

North have 2 players in the top 20 for CBAs and we have 1.
3. Xerri - 86.7%
6. LDU - 83.3%
15. Pitto - 78.9%

25. Walsh - 74.6%
29. Cripps - 73.7%


CBAs for the game:
Crippa 83%
Pitto 80%
Hewett 77%
Cerra 73.3%
Walsh 43%
Jagga 23%

They had:
LDU 80%
Wardlaw 67%
FOS 63%
Coleman-Jones 60%
Sheezel 60%
Trembath 40%

I see the problem..

Crippa 83%
Pitto 80%
Hewett 77%

I see the problem..

Crippa 83%
Pitto 80%
Hewett 77%

The hilarious part (for a better word), we had Cerra back so Walsh and Smith are the 2 that spend even less time in the midfield. My head hurts.
