I ran some data on a selection of players who have been predominantly mids: Anderson, Brayshaw, Serong and LDU:
Averages from game 0-40 (combining all 4… who all had similar ratio’s):
Disposals: 18.25
Goals: 0.23
GA: 0.3
Clearances: 2.88
Tackles: 3.33
Nowhere are there averages from games 40-80:
Disposals: 25.75
Goals: 0.35
GA: 0.50
Clearances: 5.35
Tackles: 4.25
And then averages from game 80+:
Disposals: 29.08
Goals: 0.43
GA: 0.63
Clearances: 6.10
Tackles: 4.6
In other words, whatever Dow is doing now he’ll be doing way more in games 40-80… and more again from game 80+.
So I think he’s shown enough to get another 12-months… if he boosts his stats the same ratio as these other players he will be a more than handy clearance midfielder for us.

Don’t give us that sensible stuff.
I’m very happy with Dows season and look forward to his future. Not sure what the airheads in here are thinking
