Gov is the best intercept marker in the league and is the one player all other intercept defenders are compared to.
Also, loses the least number of 1 on 1 contests out of all defenders.


Would give Kennedy a bit of a challenge, perhaps next year might overtake him.

Thinking about it now we probably have the most balanced and best KPP stocks in the competition. Can only imagine the damage we could've done with drafting better mids in the late 00's and early 10's. Absolutely sickening

I hope that didn't take long to produce because it is the most meaningless data ever lol
Atmittedly half the names don't have enough games to support hard evidence.

However, players like Shuey and Priddis have enough games to be statically significant in my opinion.

Not really. It implies that the person missing the game had an impact on the result of the game.

If every player had been in the side over the same time period then it would make sense.

But Priddis missed lots of games in 2006 while we were a dominant side, whereas Shuey missed games in 2009/2010 when we were shithouse.

Shuey wouldn't have prevented a wooden spoon in 2010 and Priddis wouldn't have stopped us winning 20 games in 2006.

Cause or effect?
Would we have been a better or worse team with Priddis playing more games in 2006?
Would we have been a better or worse team with Shuey playing in 2009/2010?

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

FWIW: One of the most statistically literate games in the world (Baseball) uses a similar system to this for player analysis. They call it Wins Above Replacement (WAR). Not to be used in isolation, but a valuable tool.
