Re: Will Jack Higgins go up a level?

I guess Lockett's 69% is close enough for you. But you'd be disappointed in Milne for 59%. we should both be disgusted in Billings for 46%. Just once, you could do your own research before you post. It will help make me look like less of smart arse. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:...

Re: Champion Data Club by Club rankings 2024

Steele and crouch will have better seasons I'd say Steele could challenge Sincs if he remains injury free in 2024. I think Crouch may have already plateaued. We all know you can't compare their output for 2023 when Crouch played every game last year and had more of a chance to gain and maintain his...

Re: Sharman will become the GOAT in 2024....

I00s of players have been the same height or taller than Nick Riewoldt. But he’s not as fit, not as strong , not as good a leader etc Rooey was exceptional.

Re: Will Jack Higgins go up a level?

With 36 goals - he’s not a 2gpg small forward Butler kicked 33 goals - and actually defended Higgins only played 22 games in 2023 out of a possible 24 and kicked 36 goals. He has been improving every year he has been at the Saints. Give him a clean bill of health in 2024 and he just might kick 50 g...

B.M wrote: Fri 05 Jan 2024 3:18pm Not sure what position he is suited to

He is not a key forward - undersized

He is not a hybrid - not good enough at ground level

I think his best chance is to add 5-8kg
He is exactly the same height as N. Riewoldt.

Don’t agree

If he was a better kick, and better defensively maybe

I think Butler is a better small forward

Re: Champion Data Club by Club rankings 2024

This is the most interesting part to me- albeit only based on output last year. Defenders: Top 10: 2, 11-30: 3, 31-50: 1 Midfielders: Top 10: 2, 11-30: 1, 31-50: 3 Forwards: Top 10: 1, 11-30: 1, 31-50: 3 It's not surprising reading but you can see why we have prioritised midfielders in Dow and Henr...
