David Parkin when asked a long time ago about the most important player in his side came up with Earl Spalding. He said something along the lines of "When Earl plays we win 90% of the time, when he doesn't that drops to 50%.

I'm a Digby Morrell fan. The guy's certainly not in Earl's league but he's honest and decent and if your daughter was going out with him you wouldn't be too concerned... :D

Stats can be used to prove anything but it's interesting to have a look at our team's performance since Digby arrived at the club (when he plays versus when he doesn't).

Diggers success rate is as follows:

Games played: 28
Games won: 12
Games lost: 16
Win Rate: 42.86%

Interesting also to turn it around and look at the figures when Digby doesn't play:

Games played: 12
Games won: 1.5
Games lost: 10.5
Win Rate: 12.5%

This isn't meant to be an argument to suggest we'll suddenly win a stack more games if Digby plays all the time, just an observation. :wink:

we want draft picks thats why Diggers not in the side. I knew we were going to win when diggers was named.

Diggers straightens us up, he leads hard and can take a contested mark he also can play down back.

Im sure Diggers will be droped this week as we can not aford to lose that number 1 pick or the priority pick

I like Digby too and don't understand why he isn't given the chances a few of his team mates get to cement their spot. Interesting stat GWS.

Know for a fact he was given a warning before the game yesterday that he had to perform - I hope he did enough because I rate him as a handy back up tall.
