Banter Geelong V Richmond - GO!

[Wosh]

In the interests of keeping your back and forth shite fights out of match threads so normal people can talk.

Keep it clean and above the shorts
Off topic rubbish clogging up match threads will be moved here, knock yourselves out.

 

[Cleansweep17]

The funniest part about this stupid argument is that most of the percentagees you talk about, most of the time when there actually IS a difference, it’s often no more than a few per cent which means it takes 50+ shots at goal before it even manifests itself


So about 50 games for someone like Plugger Vickery

What was your formula again to figure out this %?

Just want to make sure you aren’t confusing scoring accuracy with goal accuracy.

I don’t blame them for wanting Dusty. Would be their best ever player if he decides to go there.

Hey Falcon, Cleany, Baldy, Carboot. What’s your favourite thing about Dusty? Mine is his fend-offs.
Nobody else does fend-offs.

My fav is him being the best finals player ever and demolishing Geelong every step of the way to a real dynasty whilst retiring GAJ. Simply magnificent.

 

[Jeremias]

Considering the damage GAJ did there yes he would.

No, he really wouldn't.

There's a strong case for Dusty to be considered the best finals player we've ever seen, but he's a fair way off GAJ as a footballer.

 

[PhatBoy]

You seem to not give a fk about anything negative relating to GAS. It’s not healthy and why you can’t be debated with seriously on this matter.

As far as I’m concerned judging by what people have put up on here GAS is just a glorified Jeremy Howe with a gut.

You seem to give a lot of f**ks about anything positive about him.

As far as I’m concerned judging by what you’ve put up here, you’re just a glorified bootlicker with a serious inferiority complex

 

[Cleansweep17]

What more do you want after that? He’s won everything in the game. GAJ hasn’t.

 

[PhatBoy]

What was your formula again to figure out this %?

Just want to make sure you aren’t confusing scoring accuracy with goal accuracy.

The same formula that all percentages are calculated by:

Total goals divided by total scoring shots where OOF are unavailable then multiply that decimal by 100.

It isn’t complex.

 

[Jeremias]

Richmond board please. Your delusion is dragging down the quality around here, and that's saying something.

Oooh ok tough guy

But seriously I’ve asked what makes GAS so good from you guys. All I’ve got is that he looked cool.

I bet none of you knew is kicking accuracy was ordinary until I brought it up. This is the problem and why you are freaking out.

Tough guy?
Mate you’re on the internet flexing about a guy’s physical appearance as though you’re fitter than Cadel Evans when he won the Tour de France, meanwhile you’re having a mid life crisis in your early 20s because some guys you’ve never met rate him as a footballer. Everyone knows the best kick for goal in that era was Tony Lockett, a little bit ahead of Dunstall. Once Ablett moved to full forward he kicked with the accuracy of any regular full forward. You aren’t the first person to use a statistical database, much as you weren’t the first person - though I suspect you may be among the most prolific - to utilise internet pr0n.

F**k off

You’re absolutely right. The ONLY good thing about Ablett Senior was that he looked cool.
Astute observation. Clearly you’re a keen student of the game.

Good.

And GAS doesn’t even crack 60% goal accuracy. Ordinary.

That’s not true, he also provided this beauty.

Gale snuggles up with Tassie.


AKA the rat deserts the sinking ship.

 

[PhatBoy]

Good.

Lucky he kicked more goals than 12,842 other more accurate guys then isn’t it. Boy, imagine if he kicked straighter.

 

[Cleansweep17]

Richmond board please. Your delusion is dragging down the quality around here, and that's saying something.

It’s true though he’s won a greater variety of awards than GAJ. GAJ was just more consistent in H&A, that’s it. But I get a lot of people value that. Just not me.

 

[Cleansweep17]

He can thank the Geelong midfield for that. Same reason Dunstal kicked so many.

You probably would if you weren’t a Richmond supporter.

I get it. Some people are able to post with balance, others can’t look beyond their supported club.

Nah, I generally believe what the actual records say. That’s all.

I mean Cotchin, Cooney, Priddis, Mitchell beat GAJ in the Brownlow and coaches awards. Says everything really. His peak wasn’t that great he was just good for a long time. That doesn’t impress me.

That's OK, because I understand GAJ isn't overly impressed with your analytical skills.

 

[PhatBoy]

Who gives a shit.
Same reason Lockett kicked so many. He had Bourke and Harvey, and then Kelly feeding it to him. I guess none of them were really any good when you think about it. Ty had them all covered

 

[Cleansweep17]

Who gives a s**t.

Except Lockett had 70% goal accuracy and in a worse team. So yeah try again.

 

[PhatBoy]

So he’s better than Carey then. This doesn’t seem to keep you up at night as much for some reason though

 

[Cleansweep17]

So he’s better than Carey then

I think so yeah

 

[PhatBoy]

I think so yeah

But he didn’t win anything. He can’t be.
