Official Match Thread Season 29 Round 17 - Gold City Royals vs Mount Buller Demons at The Golden Throne

Harvey Manfrenjensenden how is work ?

Hope you can make the game not many left for you

In terms of actual insight though, the Royals run a tight ship, and it’ll be hard for even the superstariest (yes that’s a word, don’t @ me) Full Forward to ever pull on the boots to kick a bag against them. If you have time, I’d back Mooch heavily for the Fred.

The Royals worst defensive effort for the season is ranked 26th-worst in the league, indicating significant outperformance. They also have the tied best defensive performance of the year.

Bloody idiots in that LG.

Ive set aside my project for this season but will look to have it working next. I’ve gone a more traditional approach to Tarkymetrics insight this season that doesn’t have the same analytical depth but still provides great insight.

For instance, did you know that the Royals have played sixteen games so far this season - equal highest in the league??

Is this your approach Tarks, clog the backline

Shame we find kicking goals traumatic.

The Demons, on the other hand, probably let defence slide. Their worst defensive performance yielded the fourth worst defensive rating of the season, and the Demons had three defensive performances worse than the Royals worst. Maybe there’s something about when good defence meets bad, but the Dees best defensive performance for the year actually came against the Royals in Round 6, rating tied 18th of all performances this season.

Maybe clog the back line may be needed regardless of your 12+ goals this week

Don't worry about Best Backman or Mr.Golden Fist Awards we will just go with Golden Sieve Award

Even if the Royals kick 500 goals this week we still would only have the tied worst defensive performance of the year.

I award the Round 14 Dragons zero points.

HUGE if true!

 

[Callums_Guns]

Headless you may be needed to go back to the back pocket in the finals

Fact-check please manangatang

The optimist in me says ‘they’re due’.

 

[moginie]

Okay so what’s happening? Who is doing something deeply exciting with their day?

I'm going to Kmart! Whacko the diddle-o!

I’ve already proposed to mang that we play a one man forward line. Bastard immediately told Headless that he’ll be replacing me ten minutes in.

Dunno. It worked well for Huddo.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

The optimist in me says ‘they’re due’.

It’ll probably happen, but delivered via a 40 disposal, 25 hitout. 9 goal masterclass from Proper Gander in the ruck. Meanwhile I’ll kick something stupid like 1.5

Don't need to be a optimist anybody can see it this week

 

[Headless]

I physically shuddered.

Looking forward to a shootout. If we both get big bags today, it will just highlight the daylight back to third in the race.

 

[Marlowe]

I still think we're flag favourites, tbh.
