[didakleon]

He's definately in the top 3 with Yze and Chapman but i wouldn't know which order to put them in. The only thing is Chapman and Yze have been spending most of their time in the midfield in recent weeks.

where do you find stats for 'goal assists'?

would be interesting to see didak v davey.

 

[HKW1]

easy answer no. yes he has been good but half a season is not long enough he would have to keep this level up for two years and get a bit better.

brad johnson for the dogs is better by a mile.
Robbo for the dees is better even though he has been a bit below what he was last year.

you could even argue that he plays to far up the ground to be a genuine small forward. he is a medium

chapman and ablett are also better

he might come after these four as the fifth.

 

[Crosby87]

Didak is great, but I would take Ablett over him in a heart beat.

 

[didakleon]

i would count brad johnson and robertson as bigger full forwards not small forward that crumb packs and get lots of insode 50's.
didak chapman , ablett, davey are top 4

Brad Johnson is absolutely, clearly, astonishingly, by far and away, the best small forward in the competition. Paul Chapman runs second.

Chapman and Johnson are most definately small forwards. Johnson plays a crumbing role and midfield as well.

Those two for mine would easily be the best small forwards.

 

[Mancey]

I'd say yes but its a close run thing with GAJ and Chapman.

Brad Johnson is probably better than them all, but its unfair to call him a small forward because he does so much more upfield.

Interestingly, ABC grandstand voted didak the best small forward in the league on saturday....

No access to them, however, Didak is #1 in AFL for Goal Assists, and #2 in AFL for Score Assists for memory. He was level in goal assists with Gia i think, but having six in one match would've boosted him over the top.

leon davis is number 1
didak is number 4

1. ablett jnr
2. didak

 

[afl genius]

Didak would be 4th or 5th back behind(no particular order) Ablett, chapman, davey and johnson and robbo if you call them a small forward.

I would go Johnson, Ablett and then Didak on this years performance.

Makes sense on paper but Didak has had a far better season that Ablett up to this point.

 

[crazy_big_al]

No i dont think so

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

As mentioned Ablett, Davey and Brad Johnson are well ahead of him. Probably a few others as well. Good player, but not one of the top couple.
Is Robbo small enough to be a small forward? Sure, he's not key position but he doesn't seem that small. Maybe its just the amount of flies he has that makes him seem like a tall.

 

[Coin_Toss]

Didak is the hardest working small forward. The best is debatable, but he is clearly in the top three.

Yep I agree his defensive work is way better than Chapman and Davey.

Jeez.. he was bad.

Do you watch Didak?

He moves up the ground, creates opportunities for others and leads the goal assists column. His defensive pressure is reasonable.
