Semi-Pro
I’m sure this has come up before, but wanted to get everyone’s take now. I consistently hear commentators list Roger as one of the worst at using the challenge system. So my questions are … (1) Do the stats support this? Does anyone have access to “challenge accuracy” data for the top players? And (2) If he is that poor, is it really because he cannot see the ball or are many of these poor challenges “throw-away” challenges? I know that players often use challenges for other reasons than to dispute a call.
Personally, I think Roger may want to know just how far out the ball was … I think he is usually pretty sure one way or another prior to challenging. I also know that Roger has never been a fan of the system and maybe that plays a big role as well.
