SuperCoach AFL stats dossier: CBAs, kick-ins, time on ground for Round 19

What’s better than one Daicos? Stats reveal how the Magpie brothers score in SuperCoach, and wild shifts in centre bounce time from round 19. Search every player here.

How often have we heard a coach or commentator lament that a team really needs two of a star player.

Well, Craig McRae has the closest thing – two Daicos brothers, who can switch positions as needs dictate.

On Sunday against Fremantle Nick split his time between his customary midfield role and half-back, while Josh played mostly in defence with some stints in the middle – usually when his brother was in defence.

Nick’s average centre bounce attendance this season is 73 per cent, but that figure has been almost halved the past two rounds. Against the Dockers he was at just 13 CBAs, but it didn’t hurt his SuperCoach numbers – racking up 169 points from 43 disposals as he roamed all over the ground. He was helped by taking three kick-ins from Dockers behinds – and playing on from all three, including a crucial kick-in with only minutes left in the game.

Josh, meanwhile, attended six CBAs and took two kick-ins of his own.

There were some big moves at centre bounces in round 19, with arguably the biggest Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera’s shift to a full-time midfielder against the Cats. He has been used in the centre in bursts this season but on Sunday was at a season-high 26 CBAs (79 per cent, up from a season average of 17 per cent) and responded with 36 disposals, 10 clearances and 149 SuperCoach points.

The move also had the flow-on effect of freeing up Jack Sinclair, who posted his highest SuperCoach score since round 11 – with the help of seven kick-ins from Geelong behinds.

There were some new faces at CBAs at the weekend, too – Gryan Miers had not attended a CBA in the first 18 rounds but was at 14 against the Saints.

And injury-ravaged Essendon was forced into a new midfield mix. Andrew McGrath was at nine centre bounces (his first since round 2), Dylan Shiel attended 18, Jade Gresham nine and Archie Perkins eight.
