Oh

We are going on one season?

Then I’ll rate Billings on his best season… fair enough?

You rate players on their best season?

I went career

Looking forward to our new moderators,

Vort & Teffers, a match made in heaven.

Hopefully one or both will clarify whether statistics should be either 7 games, one season or a current career.

Popcorn please 🙏

Ok just to make it interesting and even I compared them at the same age - 26.

Membrey turned 26 2020 when we played finals last so we had a good year too.

Fritz had played 40 odd less games and still leads in:

Goals
Goal assist
Contested possession
Marks I50
Score Involvements
Tackles I50

As a forward….I’m taking Fritz.

Next week we’ll do English 101

The stats are quite similar - although Fritsch plays in front of the best midfield in the AFL

Except Contested Marks - Membrey doubles him

Membrey is a hit up forward, a work horse and a marking forward

Fritsch is a medium opportunist forward - relies less on marking the footy (especially contested) and more on general play goals

They are very different forwards

Membrey has been around since 2015
Fritsch since 2018
Except Fritz averages

More goals (they are forwards)
More marks Inside Fwd 50
More goal assists
More score involvements
More tackles inside Fwd 50
Less clangers

Oh did I mention he’s 3 years younger than Tim AND Dees got him for a second round draft pick???! You know …the ones you said were all duds and lists can’t be improved off???

Yep….you keep Tim (and overrating our players…it’s such a Saints thing to do!) ….I’ll take Fritz any-day to improve our list

Fingers crossed we may already have Bailey on the list…except his name is Cooper…
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You’ve mixed up Tim’s stats with those of Fritz and your bragging about how good Membrey’s numbers are!!

You’ve lost the plot. The teenagers call it ‘self owned’

I think you’re officially brain dead
Go back and check their avgs for those items above on 2022 output…
Then come back with your tail between your legs and grovel …
I may accept it if you’re really nice to me as there is no point picking on those less fortunate..
what is the comparison between Fritsch and Coops after 7 games ?

Hahahahahahahaha…Just admit that you are turd

One year only and not career…we’re supposed to guess what you’re thinking now are we?

You first come out with ridiculous opinions and then when someone shows you statistics you want to somehow stick to your guns and take a snapshot of one year and exclude career stats. That’s not pig headed stubborn. That’s someone who has nfi about players worth to a team.

Here’s your post below when you responded to the career stats I posted comparing Fritz and Membrey. Go back to the original post where you started talking about Fritz vs Membrey if you like as well. No mention whatsoever of just 2022 averages

Changing the goal posts and telling people they are wrong when he can’t communicate properly. What a hero!

What a low life fwhit! At least you’re a shoe in for arsehat of the year post for 2022. Worse than when Richo came out and said ‘park the bad 3 quarters in that loss’ because aside from that, there were some very good signs

It’s a fine line fir arsehat of the year round here but I think you’ve got the market covered
Go back and READ you brain dead moron what the original post mentions when talking stats - it’s there in black n white u dopey git???? - there’s no need to change goal posts when dealing with illiterate halfwits..
What next of your “brilliant analysis” ?? we at least know 2023 will see you continue to spew out the same, nonsensical dribble you dredged up from the Herald Sun (where you get all your “analysis” and opinion from)

I rate Membrey as a better forward - and I’ve explained why


I’d love to see Membrey

1- in front of a midfield containing Gawn, Oliver, Petracca, Viney, Langdon, Brayshaw
2- Alongside two 2m forwards (Brown/Jackson)

There is not a 3rd defender who could go with him in the air.


I’ll tell yo what
I’d put my house on this
Side by side - ball in the air - I’d back Membrey every time.
Fritsch is better on the deck - we have ground level forwards!

Membrey does a power of work upfield- Fritsch is a finisher

That’s why Membrey takes more marks - definitely more contested marks

Well I’ll give you points for having a view - unlike Trollope who struggles to read.
Marks I50 at same age doesn’t support your theory and Membrey does play higher up the ground (or even defence when Brett had his way) on occasion
But I’m after a forward who scores more so I’ll take Fritz who also tackles more i50
I don’t think Membrey moves as well and when he cops a talker opponent (with his dual feet jumping action) gets out pointed a bit
Fritz way better on the lead too.
Anyhoo now you can tell me how Jack Billings is a worthy pick 3 should be fascinating but only a Saints fan could argue it…

Teflon didn’t get the Matrix connection.

Someone recently got self owned in a well documented Twitter reply. They blamed the Matrix

You’ll get this one from Monty Python:

Teflon is like the Black Knight. After he loses his limbs …Black Knight says he’s invincible.

King Arthur says “you’re just a loony”

Btw, I don't read the Murdoch rag. It's more your style - cookers and nutjobs. And if I'm a scumbag, you are vermin (i.e. not even human)

Edit….two other things loon. Stop lying.

First lie: there is no original post from you saying “22 avgs”

Second lie: I didn’t send you a PM. It's what you implied

I'll add Paton as a player who must improve this season.

With Hill moving up the ground and Sincs possibly moving into the midfield we neeed to replace them.

Question is who are the most like-for-like replacements.

Can Paton be that player?

Quick, take the game on, laser like disposal skills especially by foot to be the dispatcher out of the backline.

Jones probably is an option also.

You did send me a PM “loon” …geezus that’s a hard hitting jibe…lol I won’t post it cause I’m a big believer that what’s said in private ought to stay there ..
That aside I accept your apology.
Now I’m vermin and your scum best leave it there hey? Otherwise you’ll go trawling “Twitter” again for some more of your clever Herald Sun humour…
There is a post saying 22 avgs BTW - I suggest you take your hand of your todger cause you’re going blind..

You are pathetic.

You know there is help at hand for you and with the right medication and lifestyle changes you can become human again.

You’re getting beyond the point of me getting angry or frustrated about your lies and your attempts to discredit me

I feel sorry for you.

Byron thanks for stepping in and enforcing a break on us both and for being balanced as a mod that’s important - I know you’re sick of moderating children so I’ll do my level best not to respond to it.

That said, it’s good to be back, I’m feeling refreshed and ready to take on any numskull (Football speaking ofcourse!)
