Apologies. At half time I really couldn’t be stuffed watching the rest of the game so I went to the gym instead.

Even if Goody only gave him the usual 5 mins I'd still back him in.
McAdam looks a bust. Very disappointing.
Get Brown in for Sparrow asap

The Kieren Jack vibes he gave me pre draft just get stronger with a stat sheet like this. That is seriously mind blowing, youre allowed to use the

Meassuring a key defenders game by disposals. I shouldn't be surprised with this coming from you but I still am.

Meanwhile, Bailey Laurie gets 30 every week, must be a star in the making by Mich logic.

The game was played under water, he had no business handling the ball.
Measure his worth on his ability to stop his opponent. I don't have those stats, and he might be doing a poor job, I'm not sure, but you can't have a crack at a kid's disposal count playing full back. We also don't know what the club want him to work on.

Welcome to Casey , where its impressive if the same group plays 2 weeks in a row . Adams was the SENIOR defender on the weekend .I think he plays better when Tomlinson is there to lead the defence . The impressive tackle count from Brown Jrn was because we were chasing tail for most of the match . Casey was awful for this match.

He's gone from not up to VFL standard last season to able to play as a competent stopper this season. Old mate can pot him for the rest of the season as I doubt he's going to change roles at this point and get more touches. Particularly with Howes, Hore, Tomlinson and now Schache in the mix.
What about all his other 4 disposal matches? And yes there’s been a few
Yep, key defenders need to be able to take intercept marks in the modern game.
Adams took 0, and this is the VFL
Really far off it right now.
For comparison in conditions Schache had 18 disposals and 3 marks, and look how far off AFL he is, let alone Adams (4 disp, 0 marks).
Would really want to hope to start seeing something soon with May getting on.

You got no idea, he was pick 40 or something for a reason, first thing as a defender you need to do is stop your man, thats the problem with stats these days, you have idiots like you placing far too great an emphasis on them.
Pick in the 30s.
That said who did he stop? Casey got smashed if you didn’t see the score in wet weather. If defenders don’t get touches than who do you think gets it out of D50?
Bloke better start showing some improvement with Tmac, Tomo and May on the way out as he hasn’t shown much in the last 2 years.

Did you watch the game? Or are you basing your opinion of Adams game off the stat sheet like a dickhead afl.com.au reporter?

FWIW im not saying hes great or hes going to pan out, just its incredibly stupid to say a defender is bad coz he had 4 possessions, some of the best defenders the game has ever seen were guys who got less than 10 possessions most weeks.
You know someone’s lost an argument when they ask a question to a question instead of actually answering it.
And yes I watched the game.
