Centre Bounce Summary:
Essendon
Dylan Shiel recorded a team high 85.7% CBA’s in Round 1, Andrew McGrath continued his high midfield usage recording 66.7% of team CBA’s. Zach Merrett (33.3%) was used significantly less at CBA’s in Round 1 as was Devon Smith (9.5%).
Jake Stringer did not play in the 2020 Marsh Community Series, he spent most of the pre-season training as a forward.
“A mixture (forward & midfield), I’ve done a lot of (pre-season) work forward.. I’ll start to ramp up my midfield (training) leading into games.” Jake Stringer on his 2020 role in late January.
In Round 1 Stringer was matched up heavily against Nat Fyfe at CBA’s, his ability to match-up on key opposition midfield players could dilute the opportunities for Zach Merrett & Devon Smith in 2020.
