Mac, even using the site you used yourself, our halves got less touches than our oppositon on evey occasion bar once (honestly that was Canberra where they got schooled on how not to close out a game), and Moses got less touches than the opposition non-dominant half every game bar one game he was even and one in front. You also have to take into account at least half of Moses' ball is recieved to kick in general play.
Moses is averaging low to mid 20 touches a game, and is responsible for the majority of our kicking in mid field play. If you were to say the average game we have the ball 30 set in hand, complete at 60%, so 20 sets punctuated with kicks, we will say Moses kicks 50% of then, thats 10 of his recieves, so on average he would get the ball 25 times a game…. that mean he is distributing once every second set.
If the stats dont lie, thats a very fair assesment. I could crunch the numbers properly for you if you like across the board, but from first glance a our halves are given the worst service in the comp. Most teams are working on a rough average of the halves getting 2+ touches per set, some look to be working on 3.
