One thing I've always been curious about is when a player is under duress and kicks the ball directly to the opposition or out on the full. Is this counted as a clanger or an ineffective kick? Similarly, when a player kicks the ball down the line to a teammate, and through no fault of the kicker, his teammate is outmuscled/falls over himself/trips, and the opposition marks or gathers the ball, is this too counted as a clanger?
Any kick directly to the opposition or out on the full is clanger, irrelevant to whether or not the player is under pressure.
With the second case, most of the time this will simply be an ineffective, although if the kick is long (40+ metres I think), it will still count as effective. They can never get 100 % consistency with this though, especially if someone trips over or something, because it's hard to work it out in the heat of the moment.
I'm not sure.
The one I've been wondering about is when a player takes a mark in the goal square and has a gimme shot directly in front, no distance, totally shanks the kick missing the goal but still scores a point. Is it an ineffective kick, or is it an effective kick because it actually registers a score for his team?
I think Naninaki has it right, going by the quote from CD. Although I've never actually seen someone be awarded a clanger for a behind (it's a rare occurrence though, so could easily have missed them all).
I actually think this is a clanger. Can't remember where I read it but for shots directly in front, 15m out or closer, under no pressure, if the player misses what would be a "gimme" goal then its counted as a clanger. Someone can correct me if I am wrong! Same applies for dropped marks under no pressure.
Found this quote from Champion Data which would also suggest behinds in certain rare circumstances could be considered clangers:
I think THINK, judging from previous discussions here and elsewhere, you *certainly* get points for a 'ground ball get', irrespective of whether or not a following disposal is made. Don't know about generally. Would doubt it.
Just watching the point scoring, especially for guys like Dahlhaus, who are constantly at the bottom of packs, it appears as though they're not awarded the CP when tackled. This is probably because it's too hard to tell who's had possession when there are rolling mauls. I think if someone runs out of bounds or siren goes though, then they do get the points.
Ok let's take this one apart.
Hannebury
8 kicks 15 hand balls (11 contested) 69.6% DE
No marks
2 clangers, 3 clearances, 8 tackles
0 goal, 0 behind, 1 goal assist
84 DT: 112 SC
So in summary: no late game scaling like Bont, poor handball:kick ratio, average disposal efficiency at best, little scoreboard impact, yet scored 112 on a losing team?
Compared with
Treloar round 1
20 kicks 15 handballs (11 contested) 72.7% DE
8 marks
5 clangers, 6 clearances, 3 tackles
1 goal, 0 behind, 0 goal assist
125 DT: 96 SC
Game was on the line too.
Hanners:
approximately 5 effective kicks = 15
approx 11 eff handballs =11
8 tackles = 24
11 CP = approx 35-40 depending on field position
11 UP = 11
1 goal assist = 3 + any behind assists not publicly available
1 1 % = 1
2 clangers = -6
TOTAL = 94 to 99
He was a lot better in the first half, when the game was won, so could easily become 100-105, but I'm honestly not sure how he got to 112! A few behind assists, or a few more effective kicks (fewer effective handballs) would both be logical explanations.
Treloar round 1:
approx 11 effective kicks (remember he sprayed the ball by foot that game) = 33
approx 11 eff handballs = 11
11 CP = 35-40
23 UP = 23-27ish (depending on whether any were intercept marks)
3 tackles = 9
1 goal = 6
5 clangers = -15
TOTAL = 102-111
Once again, however, Treloar dropped out of it in the second half, this time when the game was won, which could easily have seen his score drop by 5+. Given he finished on 96, that seems about right.
CD really need to explain how Fyfe can be on 124 in the final minute of a game decided by a kick, get 2 effective contested clearances and a tackle, and only finish on 126 post-scaling.
Watching Bont vs. Freo a few weeks ago, if he did that it would've easily been a 20 point play in such a game.
He went up to 130. The scaling down to 126 would've been correcting an error from earlier in the game.
The Point Scoring table in the help section of the SuperCoach website, plus the article on how supercoach points are scored in the opening post of this thread both state that they are...
The some bizarre reason, the scores listed are what the scores are like in a time of high weighting (ie. when the game is won). Everything is in correct proportion, but every score is too high (eg. Kicks are 3 not 4, HAO are 4 not 5, etc).
Alright. Let's use the table. Let's use the scoring criteria (tackles=4 points, contested possessions=4.5 possessions which you seem so sure about)
Treloar round 3-108 SC
15 tackles=60 points apparently
11 contested possessions=11x4.5=49.5 apparently
1 goal+effective kick=12
That's a total of 121.5
Are you saying the remaining 27 of his disposals (albeit low DE) is worth a total of -13.5?
I mean you surely you can't be serious.
Nice "it was published in an article it must be true" attitude.
