While I think Henry, Bianco, Rantall, Macrae, Poulter, Ginnivan and Wilson all look like they will become good players for us, if I'm honest, I've got to say that none of them have made me say "wow". Whereas, I remember the first time I saw Pendles and Daisy play for us, I knew they would become absolute stars. At least we should have Nick Daicos to get us excited about next year. Other than that, it's looking like it will be a long road back from here.
i agree, a GF rocked up as the last 1/4 of the year was about to start, and took off for a walk with her, so not me but i just dgaf!!

Are you seriously saying that you have uncovered the secret worthlessness of HTA but 18 blokes that spent their whole lives on footy have no idea?

I was talking about the stat called HTA, not about the footy. What I mean is this.

Chris Scott reckons they just give HTAs to "big name" ruckmen when there were none.

I reckon he's wrong but understand why he believes that. It's 'cos what footy folks would call "to advantage" is not how it's defined in the stats. So he sees e.g. Grundy had zero impact but then the stats show 8 HTAs for the game.


He does not know what the stat means. That's CD's fault for not telling their customers. That's all.
