Title: Which Tiger players are elite?
Post by: one-eyed on January 11, 2016, 02:54:17 AM
As the title says - Which Tiger players are elite? At this time last year, Champion Data said Lids, Jack, Titch & Rance.

Also, who of our younger players do you think could become elite?

Lids, Jack, Rance, Cotch & Dusty.
All elite but none have proven to be in the "greats" bracket yet.
The next tier down is very skinny tho

Cotchin:-

2013 - let Carlton run over the top of us in a final on his watch

2014 - kicked against the wind against Port

2015 - 9 disposals against north

For a so called elite player he sure does keep playing terribly when it actually matters.

Something is very wrong with this picture

None because they lack in comparative consistency to the opposition "Elitists"

You are correct except you are harsh about 2013. He was one of the best on ground in that game over the four quarters.

My recollection of 2013 is similar to yours, but just in case wine has dulled the years I went for the stats

http://www.richmondfc.com.au/season/statistics

Player          Kicks  Handballs   Disposals   Marks   Hit-outs   Frees For   Frees Agst   Tackles   Goals   
 Trent Cotchin   22      4      26      4      0   0   1      2              4      2

But maybe the fact that his mere presence didnt inspire the 10 or so spuds on the ground to lift can be counted against him

Only three players stood up when the chips were down in the 2013 EF - Cotchin, Maric & Vlastuin. Fact.

Was he on the list before the rookie list?

Why wasn't he promoted to the rookie list that year?

It's OK your point is still valid, why wasn't he in our  list in 2013, someone at the RFC has a lot to answer for

Could Miles become elite this year?
I think Yes.
He must be in our top 6 players

Wouldn't big in our top 5

Not far off 6

His last effort was indeed class

in most supporters eyes  I think Miles is elite Just needs to be  consistant  over a long period to win over the rest of the punters
Title: Re: Which Tiger players are elite?
Post by: Stalin on January 13, 2016, 10:45:38 AM
In most supporters eyes

He'd be a rung or two below the 'big 5'

As much as I do love him (a big amount)
