This site may help after games are finished in a day or two it lists receives etc in player stats..V Raiders Brooks 47 Moses 38 Tedesco 25 Rowdy 9..

Cool but does it add them up over a season? One game is… one game. I realise there are all games present from 2017 but I'm not going to go through add them all up, and previous years are missing.

Game by game mate..and I haven't found an archive site just the current footy season…

totalfootystats.com.au go back to 2014 and aren't bad but don't list such things as receives as a total again only in individual games..

For me to explain your contradiction we must first both accept the basic premise that when Brooks makes a crappy hospital pass, whoever takes that pass is going to get hammered.

Thus, a player taking said pass with this knowledge IS certainly deemed as putting his body on the line.
Conversely, a player dropping the crappy pass prior to reaching the defensive line is most certainly NOT putting his body on the line. Rather, he is doing quite the opposite.

Ergo, excusing Lawrence for dropping hospital passes while at the same time saying that he puts his body on the line is herein a paradox i.e. a contradictory statement.

So you can only put your body on the line if you catch a pass? This sounds a little too Catch-22 for me, unless there is a joking subtext I have missed.

What if Rowdy is desperately attempting to catch the hospital pass, despite high chance of harm to his person, that doesn't count as putting your body on the line? He literally is putting his body at he defensive line without the football.

Happy seems to use stats as it suits him…here they are meaningless yet when it comes to Aaron and metres after contact.. (a stat not recorded btw) they prove he is also useless..

My argument with Woods is too often he touches the ball in the red zone , doubt too many could argue with that

Woods has trouble passing the ball at all.

Not really true, Woods has been 3rd highest or better for offloads in the team 2014-2017.

They don't publish stats on distribution, but I'd encourage you to watch how many times Woods passes before the line as well, it would be multiple times per match.

Woodseys offloads are garbage. They are usually in high traffic to a player in a worse position who is then under massive pressure. A lot of them hit the ground.
 
Bricks for hands, too small for second row, no impact in attack or defence. Should have been retired five years ago. Was pathetic in the centres (no lateral movement) before being shifted to the forwards, now just a plodder. Don't care if he is a nice guy, just no longer anywhere near NRL standard.
