Port Adelaide 2018

[The Bedge]

Our effective disposal % is ok 72.3 - actually higher than Geelong. Clanger count is also reasonable. Most of our guys are pretty good kicks.

Be interested to see a break down between general field kicking compared to F50 entries for disposals.

I wonder how many much % of effective disposals by foot relate to short 15-20m kicks to a player with ample space.

I like the taps to advantage stat for rucks, I wouldn't mind a kicks to advantage stat.

Don't worry, Ken is out of contract in 2022

He’ll of asked for an extension by then, and based on last years evidence, the club will jump to sign him.
He’s got the best manager in the world is all I can say.

If you both can explain to me :

- Who you would employ in the role to replace Hinkley?
- Why you would employ them, as in what they bring to the table, what are their credentials?
- Who would you employ as his/her assistants?

I love the "sack him" call with no idea on who to replace them with.

Now Port fighting with the Integrity Department, good luck

I{m not sure how accurate the report was that I read, but it pretty much said the AFL want to sanction SPP for 2 or 3 games (retrospectively) despite the lack of evidence and the lad doesn't want to sign off on it, because he doesn't agree with version of events. Good on him, hope he sticks to his guns and doesn't sign anything unless it matches what he believes took place.

On the flip side the alleged victim isn't prepared, reportedly, to take the matter further.

Impasse has been reached.

SPP should be playing.

REB

Stewie Dew was available at the time of his contract extension.

Ken threatened to leave for Gold Coast. We blinked and shat the bed.

Simply put, our guys aren't good enough by foot.

mmmm nah.

I don't disagree with that stat, but I'd love to know where you got it from. I can't find efficiency stats all that easily.
I assume I'm just looking in the wrong spot.

Footywire have a list of the top 100 ball users in 2017. https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_ ... t=LA&st=EP

Port has 3 on the list. Clurey, Houston and Jonas.
By contrast, a side I've always thought had good foot skills, Hawthorn has 16.

I'd love to get a full list though, as generally the top 100 are defenders padding their stats with kicks across the backlines.

AFL app, it's team disposal efficiency average over the year.

Crows - 75.2
Freo - 75.0
WCE - 74.2
Bulldogs - 74.1
Richmond - 74.0
GWS - 73.5
STK - 73.4
ESS - 73.0
PIES - 72.5
PA - 72
GEE - 72.2

Gold Cost is 65.1%

I’d have given the job to Brendon Lade.
And ask him to have a plan B and to ultimately take risks when the game requires it.

Don’t just sit back and hope it’ll happen.
Make it happen!

Interestingly, PA is listed 8th for marks I50 (55), 6th Efficiency I50 (50.4%), 7th tackles I50 (ave 9.

Contested marks - 18th with 31 CM.

Yeah it's just on the AFL website. Change from players to teams, then click advanced options, turn off something (you can only have 11 fields) then turn on disposal efficiency.

I'll have it if there is, I'm thirsty.

"As I've said right from the very start, if there's evidence of any serious sexual abuse, then we would throw the book at any player, but our vision of what happened on the night bears no resemblance to that."

Strange wording.

[Brodlach]

Do they think this is sexual abuse but not at a serious level?

[morell]

How is that hard to understand.

Pinching someone on the bum isn't the same as gang rape. For example.

[Brodlach]

It’s not hard to understand. Sexual assault is sexual assault. Do either of those in a normal work place and it’s goodbye.


I’m not suggesting that should happen to SPP as I have no idea what occurred

[The Bedge]

Footballers slap each other on the arses every week - that's work place and they don't get sacked for it.

PAFC's issue not mine, 4 year extension was massive overs though.

Nah, there are many more granular "categories" than that.

Misconduct, harassment, assault, rape...and severity therin
