@stone1_matthew@analysis_dept When my whole point is that his best is on par it shouldn’t be a surprise I picked a game to represent his best. I unfortunately can’t expect intelligence from a person who equates smarts to followers on Twitter.
@stone1_matthew@analysis_dept X 87 games. Grundy 255 games. Gawn 262 games. Jackson 133 games. It’s amazing to me you think because these guys have more elite games all-time that just makes them 100x better, it’s almost like he’s played 1/3 less footy as two of the others. He’s been elite for two seasonsprior
@stone1_matthew@analysis_dept And to claim Grundys 34 disposal game against Buller and Mcstay after Steene went out early wasn’t one of his best games ever is flat out idiotic. Same with Jackson’s 28 and 3, arguably his best game ever. Notice you have to get the best games of the best ruckman for your point.
@stone1_matthew@analysis_dept By what metric are they considerably better? I’m genuinely interested. You downplay Xerris stats then post practically identical ones of the guys you’re trying to claim are a 100x better. The fact is the only guys you can find comparable or better stat lines for Xerri are those 3
@stone1_matthew@analysis_dept All these games are practically identical 😂 You’ve just proven my point that at his best he’s on par with these guys, thank you.
@analysis_dept@stone1_matthew Alright I’ll spell it out for you. 30 disposals, 26 contested, 23 hitouts, 14 clearances, 7 tackles. Those were his numbers against Geelong two months ago. He is struggling with inconsistency but his best is arguably better than the others. You can’t find me a comparable game.
@analysis_dept@stone1_matthew He’s had some of the highest single game player ratings ever and is the least experienced of the 4 by a long way. The facts are in front of your eyes and you ignore them, that my friend is true delusion. R2 vs WCE, R8 vs GEE and last year R23 and R24.
@stone1_matthew He’s probably the worst of the 4 but he’s way more impactful than the ones the tier below him. He’s also capable of some of the best ruck performances you’ll ever see. Being not as good as some of the best ruckman we’ve ever seen isn’t a bad thing.
@OnlyCarlton_ Don’t think I’ve ever seen an 18yo (let alone a small forward) tackle a bloke the size of Blicavs and crunch him like that. Love this kid.
@RedOctober1990@FootyonNine I disagree. Complaining about home ground advantage just because you lost isn’t calling anything out, it’s just sooking. If he really cared he would mention it not just when he feels his team is hard done by. Also the issue isn’t home ground bias it’s umpiring in general.
@Cpcc15@Bomberbuzzer Your saving grace Caddy wants out because he knows how dogshit your list is. At least blues have loyalty. You’ll be saying goodbye to the only players that are worth anything soon enough.
