Mattner - Why mattner is not scoring well?

[Diceman]

Ok so i aint got to see alot of games over the 1st two weeks.

What are peoples thoughts on adelaide, particularly why mattner is not scoring well. I thought this might happen with a few injuries... anyone keeping on top of it, envisaging mattner back on a wing, getting defensive marks as third man up, kicking out etc? He came from nowhere and played this role great for me last year...
Oh, and when will mcleod fall over cause he's old and force everyone in my league to trade him?

hes never really been a huge stat gatherer, never averaged over 66 in a year.

and i know i just posted this in another thread but kick ins dont count as possessions

Because he's ****

[Diceman]

Ha ha, ah so kick ins don't count, fair enough, tried emailing champion data about their stats/pointscoring, got the company line, *****s didn't even engage with my question at all! I was asking about the loading given to players scores at crucial times in the game... they dead batted it even tho they talk about it a little in the AFL prospectus.
Mattner scored well for me in the second half of last season (when i picked him up, a couple games in the 130 territory (supercoach) but he changes based on position.... hence the question.

[Tippaz]

I believe Mattner spent most of his time in the back pocket last week (after Johncock went down)

[Diceman]

Mmmm, well in any case he's going to drop a ton, and once he strings two good games together, and the team stabalises, that might be the time to jump on him

Assuming one needs him of course..... and needs to get rid of someone else....

Thats the major problem i'm having, i like too many players!

I want bock, kennelly, leigh fisher, Judd, J Brown, Hall, Lewis, Mitchell, Goddard douglas... the list could go for quite a while,
meh, theres all season, players will go up and down, we'll have to see

[PAFC]

I'll get him when he realises he's not playing rugby and actually needs to look up when running

[Sburgoyne4pm]

He runs like 15m straight in to players and doesnt even look like he's trying to avoind them.

The fact he has 8m strides like a horse probably doesnt help that either

[Age]

Spot on there boys. His tackling was his one good attribute that got him his points. But his running with the ball has been somewhat rediculous at times. In saying that, if he was to put on a few kilos, hed be quite suited to that sad game of rugby!
