Don't think we've ever had the same sub 2 weeks in a row.
I don’t think Crowden would be sub. He was pretty great against Sydney.

If Ryan still has a dodgy calf but they risk it maybe Duman or Watson will be sub as cover
He was very good in the first quarter but only touched 3 times after than including 2 quarters with zero touches

I reckon this might blow most people's minds on Crowden (except Joao's as he already knew what we're dealing with). Crowden is Freo's best kick as rated by champion data, the problem being is that Crowden hasn't kicked it enough times to qualify under their rating system. Kicking analysis by Champion data rates the difficulty of all his kicks and compare it the league average expected efficiency for that difficulty rating. For the kicks he does, the league average hits the target 45.5% of the time, while he is operating at 57.1%. 11.6% better than league average. Sadly don't have the stats of the next best but the 11.6% positive differential is the best of all Freo players.
So I would much prefer it for him to stay in this team as long as possible to either get better at finding the footy/or Freo as a team realise what he can do with it and start using him more and giving him a role and place in the team where he can get his hands on it.
Definitely confirms what a few posters have noticed with him, myself included, is that he should stay in the team if we want better ball use around the ground. He is not just a small pressure forward and I think he should be utilized better, I think in the future he should get more cracks in the midfield for his development.

He had 7 in the first and 5 in the third. His effort in the third was terrific and was a key part of our movement forward. Possessions don’t capture his pressure acts.
Champion data just confirming what is obvious with the eye.

You’d have to be blind to not see that Crowden has the makings of a good player.
Just need to get him to 20 possessions per game.

I'd be happy with 15 and a goal plus his current level of goal assists.
Jeff Dalgleish is umpiring west coast v Bombers and flying to Adelaide to do our game.
yep
His kicking is sublime. When he fires, he will be a huge asset for us with forward entries. Good runner, I would chuck him on a wing....

He's an outside mid/high half foward. He'll hit those numbers when we play him like that imo.
I’m a fan of Crowden and have been since last years performances. He wasn’t great in the few games prior to last week but his ball use by foot is as good as Sonny Walters. Would be disappointed if he doesn’t get a contract extension at end of the year
Remember that the same mob had Mcpharlin rated 350th best player in the AFL.
