First year players and then they name everything but first year players.
That's a great stat sheet. Looking forward to the day you click on each and see the actual footage.I don't think they've not kicked it to him because they don't think he's capable, I think we've just got a lot of forwards who get up a head of steam heading towards goals and have a ping.
For reference, he's good from in close - <30m - and he's good from 50m+ which is his most exciting attribute.

To an extent.Wouldn't surprise me - I imagine the order of priority is pick the draft age player, if they're both draft age players go for the earlier pick. Clearly it isn't body of work because Calsh's is bigger.
19 goals in 14 games. Great return from a pick 56.
Hard to see him ever being a bad player with the skill set he has. I feel like once his body is conditioned a lot more and he can get past the cramping late in games perhaps his accuracy will start to improve.
The only question I have is how far do you go in terms of building size on him? It’s not like he lacks strength in the contest as it is and I wonder how much you affect his ground ball game by just throwing an extra 7-8kg on him over a pre season. Tbh I’m pretty happy how he is if he can just build his tank a bit more. Keen to see how this unfolds
Rising Star this week or we riot.
Amiss kicked 41 goals last season and 35 so far this season.Calsher Dear has played 14 games.
He's been subbed out in 6.
He's kicked goals in 10 games.
Kicked multiple goals in 7 games.
This is not normal. He's taken one less contested mark than Aaron Cadman who has played 32 games with 5 of them being subbed out.
Jed Walter, the consensus number one forward in the draft and AFL ready man child has played the same amount of games, been subbed out less (3 times), has kicked 11 goals to Dear's 19 and has taken 8 contested marks to Dear's 14.
I saw Jye Amiss play this weekend, top 10 pick, 21 years old. I thought, gee, he's tracking well for a young forward, would love to have him at Hawthorn. You compare his third year output with Calsher's and there's nothing in it.
You can go through and do the same first year comparisons with whoever you want. Jamara, Thilthorpe, Curnow. Whoever. And Dear always stacks up.
Jye Amiss is 21 he did kick 40 yes but I think that was second year of senior footballAmiss kicked 41 goals last season and 35 so far this season.
He is MILES ahead of Dear right now.
Let’s be sensible.
On Dear, I absolutely loved the certainty with which people derided my calls to bring him in early this season.
People who spoke with the authority of relaying truths directly from the club that Dear is not ready and had a lot to work on (first year player w work do do? Imagine…)
Why do people insist on knowing things when they don’t.

Dear will become a better overall KPF in my opinion, but right now, as the comparison was made, Amiss is way ahead.Miles ahead is a massive stretch. Let alone MILES.
Amiss has played 87% time on ground this year to Dear's 65%. I'm taking that into consideration a bit, because of course Amiss' raw totals this year are better. He's played more games and played more minutes in those games.
With that, Amiss has kicked 1.7 goals a game to Dear's 1.4.
Amiss 8.7 (5.3 effective) disposals a game to Dear's 7.1 (4.7 effective).
Amiss 3.9 marks to Dear's 2.7.
Amiss 0.8 contested marks to Dear's 1.0.
Amiss 1.4 tackles to Dear's 2.4.
Amiss 0.6 1%ers to Dear's 2.3.
Like I said, I really like Amiss! I think he's going to be a great key forward for a long time. On a per minute basis, Dear has out performed him this year (although it's close). You can't linearly scale time on ground to counting stats because Dear needs to build up his tank, etc, etc.
But that's what I'm getting at and what excites me about Dear. You put up a comparison against a really good third year key forward who was a high draft pick in a winning team, and he's right there with him having just turned 19.
I expect Dear to do something similar next season.Jye Amiss is 21 he did kick 40 yes but I think that was second year of senior football
Rising star nom surely.
I saw that game before ours started .Joel Friejah 29 disp 7 score involvements probably gonna get the better of Calsher unfortunately. He’s been so stiff nomination wise
