Couldn't be any happier today if my mail is correct

Interesting decision when only last week Hinkley said he needed a couple of weeks of solid footy in him before he came into the team. Magpies had a bye last week



Agree with the above. Thought the Maggies bye might rule him out for this week, but as the season has gone on, i have had a feeling his first game would be this weekend. Come in and do a job on Smith or Laird then have a block of 3 more weeks leading into finals. Could be wrong, just the way i have seen it.

When's the last time he played AFL?

That would be an interesting selection in a Showdown and not played AFL for two years

I'd drop Jars before White. Jars desperately needs a run for the Maggies.

Easily the worst differential in the comp of F/A vs Top 8/Bottom 10

Actually quite remarkable.

It's a lovely chart that tells me what I already knew, we beat up on the bottom sides and can't quite get close to the top sides. The top 4 sides consistent across the board, bar Adelaide who stand out head and shoulders above.

Pretty colours though.

Its less about that and more about how much worse we are compared to the rest of the comp.

We're a middle of the road team that's been protected by a soft draw.

You've also had a fantastic run with injuries.

I agree but I think that's actually a metric of a good side/club.

It is interesting comparing Port with Melbourne, West Coast, Richmond, and even Collingwood, who, on that chart at least, seem to be doing a better job.

Post more charts like that Morell. As long as someone else makes them :D

Funny how you like the ones that put Port in a bad light, but anything pro Port and you're all of a sudden anti-chart ;)

Yep only one chart that counts.
Too much useless data is being used these days.
