Although JPK is in his prime, might need Lucas to come up with a crazy age formula on second thought...</blockquote> Just saw this. Excluding 1st year players and those averaging below 30 in 2012: 1. Big Ivan Maric (MER) - 69.33/113.43 2. Brock "The Rock" McLean (JIM) - 64.75/106.27 3. Patrick "5th Best Player In The Game" Dangerfield (TOR) - 80.32/118.86 4. Taylor "Chuck Norris" Walker (PBR) - 62.46/100.19 5. Charles "BigBoy" Dixon (QUE) - 36.20/73.50 6. Brad "BOMH" Ebert (COU) - 62.95/100.05 7. Lewis "Fasterthandelicious" Jetta (HDH) - 42.90/79.86 8. Jarryn "That'sastupidname" Geary (TLP) - 42.90/79.86 9. Mitch "2nd Year" Wallis (TLP) - 54/87.32 10. Shane Tuck (MER) - 82.20/114.64
Where's the crazy age formula H. 2 Pigs in the Top 10 is interesting though, just need them to step up to the next level and provide some competition for Scott "Carji Greeves" Pendlebury.
What crazy formula? That's just a Top10 of most improved from last year to this. Make your own judgements. For mine, Maric's (NDR6) 54 point jump in a position of a relative rarity gives him a pretty good claim to the title, yet R6 is quite early. Brockles (MSDR2) getting picked essentially in the 28th round while experiencing a 50 point improvement in average, presents a good claim also. Tino's selection of Walker (NDR11) who experienced a 38 point jump to the 100 mark, but will be a 10 year FWD, is pretty hard to beat in my eyes.
This reminds me of something that happened the other day where we had a visitor that was for some reason explaining something quite complicated about snakes to my 4 yo daughter. I had never heard this scientific stuff before myself, but my daughter obviously had as she responded with a simple "I know that"
Yeah during the last week going to do a bit of analysis on the "unlucky" players who fired during the bye rounds and finals, oh what could have been...

<blockquote>Quote from port_leschenault on October 10, 2012, 22:24 No one cared about the mickey mouse finals.</blockquote> I'd suggest you mean no-one who wasn't in them?
R18 updated - down to 2 now! Also fun fact: I *almost* drafted Dempster because he's the only player in the league from Mallacoota, but didn't fit my youth strategy...sucks to be me.
