07..Things we were good at and things we were bad at...

Post: # 519948Post saint66au »

Have just been perusing the most excellent "AFL Prospectus 08" and thought Id list a few things, team and individual, that we were No 1 at or No 16 at during the 07 season..

THE GOOD

We kicked a greater % of goals from marks than anyone else in the comp..55%

Fraser has kicked more goals from marks (208) than anyone else in the last 4 seasons!

Roo had the best free kick F-A % in the comp..45 for and only 9 against

Since 2002, Bakes has applied 213 blocks on opponents...more than anyone else in the comp

Dals 86% efficency rate is the best of all inside mids in the comp

Jaydyn Attard played more games than any other rookie in 2007



THE BAD

We conceded 40 goals from frees..the most in the comp

We conceded 78% of our goals from inside the corridor..the worst in the comp

We only averaged 322 disposals / game last year..the worst in the comp

We only laid 138 tackles inside our own fwd 50..worst in the comp

Our accuracy from general play was only 47%..worst in the comp

Clinton Jones efficiency rate of 56% was the lowest in the comp (of those who played at least 6 games)

Leigh Montagna has had 59 clanger kicks in the last 2 years..the worst in the comp

Michael Rix's one contested mark for the year was the lowest of any ruckman (who played at least 10 games)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So there you have it..read into them what you will. I just thought Id summarise the good and bad from a pure stats perspective

Thanks to Twin Towers for arranging the purchase..and Eastern for getting it to me!!!

Thank you very much, I was arguing that Dal was the best user of the ball in the league the other day, ofcourse I got the "you're only saying that because you're a St.Kilda supporter" line...
