Sorry can't give Boyd a vote at 50% Disposal Efficiency. That means of the 44 disposals only 22 hit a target.
Same for me as above, we really need to get this up I now think that he is worse than Cross.

Re: Woof Player Awards Rnd 7 - Western Bulldogs vs North Melbourne
4. Griffen - Didn't appear to raise a sweat today. Just keeps running and running and running
3. Picken - Harvey normally gives us major headaches.
2. Lake - Petrie normally gives us major headaches.
1. Dickson - Talk about taking the most of your opportunities.

Re: Woof Player Awards Rnd 7 - Western Bulldogs vs North Melbourne
4. Griffen - Absolute superstar.
3. Lake - See above, great to see him back to his best. Mauled Petrie today.
2. Wallis - 28 disposals and was seriously influential. He's made me eat my words and I love it!
1. Austin - Terrific performance and I wanted to give my recognition of it.
Apologies to Dickson, Minson.

Apologies to Libba.

Agree, some of his disposals were sloppy, but still clearly in our best 4 on the ground.
Boyd had the same disposals hit the target as Griffen (31 touches at 74% = 22).
Boyd had 10 clearances, the next best on the ground was Libba with 6. He had 19 contested disposals, the best for North was 11 (Scott Thompson). He did so much work under enormous pressure in close. Had an enormous influence on the game. BOG for me.
Champion Data do a great job these days with Supercoach points. It takes into consideration many factors including disposal efficiency and is a pretty good indicator of ones influence on the game. They had Boyd with 137 and Griff with 123.

Re: Woof Player Awards Rnd 7 - Western Bulldogs vs North Melbourne
Based purely on perception of what I saw at the game
4. Griffen
3. Minson - gave us first use of the ball time and time again
2. Cross - An important piston in the engine room but had a great day outside of the pack
1. Lake - the Lynchpin of our back 6. Can anyone believe people were talking about a shift to another club last year?
2. Dahlhaus - Not a great day stats wise but harried all day
1. Mitch - Smart hands lad.

What was is? His hair? Man love? Of the rookie both Libba and Wallis were easily better than him.

It's hard to pick votes. I just think he puts so much pressure on opponents. He might not get a stat for that, but putting pressure on the opponent forces them to kick in a hurry. Love the pressure and leg speed he brings. Libba was fantastic and you could see him bent over on the mark, just stuffed. Giving us his all. I was at the North End, so very hard to see what went on in close down the other end. Wally, just so smart with his hands. As I said, based on what I could see from my end, but very hard to split them.

4 Griff - champ.
3 Lake - welcome back Briza
2 Dicko - we need a bloke who can convert opportunities. He fits this bill.
1 Boyd - Would've had him higher, but for the poor disposals. Was everywhere though.
Apologies to Sherm, Gia, Austin, Crossy

Only Boyd had more contested possessions than Dalhaus (16) on the ground today. Wins a lot of his own footy which is so valuable.

1. Cross
Griffen, all class. Absolute A-grader on a consistent basis thesedays. Lakey is back! Hopefully he can play this well against lesser opponents more regularly. Boyd, I thought we had about 3 of him today. Everywhere. If he learns how to kick he could be the best midfielder in the league. Crossy was an outside choice, but I thought his courage and disposal was top class today. Continues to prove doubters wrong.
2. Wallis.
1. Dahlhaus.
Wallis is becoming better each week. Going to be 200+ gamer for us. Libba was unlucky not to sneak in but I thought Dahl's ball use and hunger for the contest was second to none. Sign of a great game when the votes are a toss up between just about every player.

OK. 22 possessions. 10 Clearances. 7 Tackles. 1 Goal.
Still an awesome statistical game since that is what you are measuring.
Add in whatever intangible you like that describes the benefit of the teams captain sticking his head over the footy 100 times each week and running further and faster than any other player on the field.
Not in our best 4?

Re: Woof Player Awards Rnd 7 - Western Bulldogs vs North Melbourne
4. Matt Boyd - great captain's performance
3. Ryan Griffin - must have a few brownlow votes by now
2. Will Minson - dominated the ruck all day
1. Liam Picken - didn't just apply the glove to Harvey, applied the blowtorch
Hard to leave out many others including Brian Lake, Tory Dickson and Daniel Cross and good signs from Ayce Cordy and Mark Austin.

I agree with mjp's call on Boyd.
44 @ 50% >>> 28 @ 75%
Efficiency as a stat in isolation is a bit misleading too IMO. You can have great efficiency if you kick sidewards or backwards all game. Don't get me wrong, Boydy does butcher and it but it doesn't take him from elite to average. It takes him from elite to whatever the rung just beneath it is.

Yeah probably harsh on him. I do love Boyd, especially his hardness and commitment at the ball. As others have said, needs to play within his limitations, which means less kicks and more handballs. Frustrating to see those kicks go out of bounds, or just slammed on the foot straight to an opposition player.

I am like that with Boyd too, think we all are! I definitely get what you mean, it's just easy to over correct and as you say, be too harsh.
Thing about Boydy is he works so hard for his touches. I tolerate a lot more if you are the one actually earning them in the first place. He is like a billionaire who wastes a lof of money. At the end of the he is still well ahead of average!
