Player Watch Jordan De Goey

[Black_White]

Still making the decision to try the Dusty fend off whenever confronted by an opponent.
It’s so predictable.
Every stinking time…

 

[Gilbert_Grape]

Number 1 in the entire AFL for clangers, and spots #2 #3 and #4 are all ruckmen. Champion data rank him the worst kick in the AFL. His handpasses are also poor.

Open your eyes Jmac.

B.Grundy now comfortably #1!

JDG has had some less productive games but I wouldn't sweat too much on clangers in isolation given risk v reward.

Prime Dusty was usually top #3 clangers (#1 in his Brownlow year).
(Danger, Oliver, Cripps, Petracca similar).

Or team-wide Gee and Syd are top 5 (highest) clangers while WC and North are 5 lowest.

You're right that the problem is payoff is not there right now (ie goals and disposal efficiency low - injury might explain it, or opp tactics as SR36 mentioned).

I have seen the risks and the outcomes. Where is the reward of this?

Best to compare him with a like for like player not Grundy.

Grundy reference was just a joke.

I wasn't arguing JDG has been great.

I was just saying clangers in isolation doesn't mean much because players like Dusty, Danger, Oliver, Petracca are all frequently near the top of clanger lists while winning Brownlows/Premierships. (Not because of their clangers, but it's a tradeoff....)

I agreed the reward has not been there for JDG enough this year (low efficiency & goals), which is the problem.

Simple point: zero clangers shouldn't be the goal, hence Gee have more clangers than North this year.

His disposal has been really bad this year, but the reason why rucks are at the top is that clangers is a measure of "errors" and it includes free kicks, and dropping an uncontested ball. It's not a disposal effectiveness measure - turnovers are only a part of the measure.

[Kirby]

He was fantastic today.

11 score involvements and a total machine.

 

[Magnanimous]

Good first up, he looks fit at the moment.
Hope we can find a good balance with him and Crispy in the team.
Crisp seemed to turn his season around when Jordy was out.
Will go a long way to where we end up this year having a solid contribution by both.

Had that threatening look. Glad he's back. Keen to see us roll out he & Schultz together next week for some real physicality

 

[Mostfamousclub_Pies]

Very underwhelming last night. We cannot be expected to win when N. Daicos has a relatively ineffective game and De Goey has no impact.

 

[Kappa]

De Goey plays his 1 great game every month so he'll probably come good next week or the week after

Have to agree with you Kap.
He is so great when he is on but he is also so inconsistent.
So often has so so games.
You just can't rely on him.

 

[JLC]

I would have put him up forward in the last quarter.

 

[Fat Jesus]

Still playing injured I feel.

 

[Kirby]

I thought he was one of the handful that actually tried his guts out.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Poor game. Looked to be carrying something

 

[Kes1984]

Way too overpaid for the return you get from him.
He can be an absolutely match winner like the prelim.
Or he can be a non factor, like last night. More often he’s the latter.

[Captivating]

He, Checkers and IQ need to be 10kgs lighter.

All three are way too heavy and therefore treacle slow.

 

[sr36]

Second game back is often not as good as the first.

How are the third games?

BOG with five goals.

I want better than good
