Probably. I've given up on ever trying to pick the breakouts though haha

Hmm something peculiar I just realised, if indeed CEY is mid only then that's evidence that the just pick and choose with regards to certain players. He was a FWD/MID this year and he didn't play a game due to injury so he should be the same next year.

I don't think he should've been a forward to begin with, but yes CD are full of shower in a wide variety of areas. Goddard, worst of all, definitely should've been a D/M.

He played a game in the SANFL, and when a player doesn't play in the AFL, it then comes to their position in the reserves.

He played 1 game in the sanfl, surely that's not enough to strip someone of their dpp status

Agreed. Champion Data seem to think otherwise. I was just saying why it happened.

In the past champion data have been picky and choosy with how they apply their own rules. Best example is GAJ who missed enough games to each a discount, but they didn't apply one.

Yeah exactly right. Im convinced they do the same with positions too. I can't speak for every team but if they need more of an example of a mid/fwd than Dusty then I'd like to see what it is because I watched every Richmond game religiously and that bloke spends a ton of time inside the forward 50

Its not based on time spent in forward 50. Its all based on % of centre bounces starting in certain positions, or at least that's what I have been told by some of the gurus.

Is Daniel referring to Caleb Daniel as a mid only, or someone else?

He’s the only guy with the surname Daniel in the league so I’d assume it’s him
