I'd take the guy who provides > 1.5 goals per game compared to the other guy

The figure is actually 1.8 more goals per game either through directly kicking the thing or passing it to someone who ends up kicking a six pointer

So, for this year that's about 20 more goals. The guy involved in more goals also provides a spark to his team mates where as the guy who attemts to kick goals and has less success, in some cases has a positive effect to the opposition and deflates his own team mates

Yeah, but he'll cost you $1.2m a year.

if you're balancing the books take the first one. if you want to ever compete take the latter.

Paddy and Tom Lynch from the Gold Coast.

Wherever Lynch ends up, they're going to pay way overs for him.

It will be interesting to look at those numbers when Paddy has played 30 to 50 more games.
