Player and team stats from today

[Tigerdon]

Edwards… Another stellar 20m...

Not there for his attack, some of his tackles were great though.

Just as well because it's non existent. 20m in 50 minutes? Come on Willow… He can defend but he's not a first grader. He's a fill in at best.

And that's what it boiled down to in the final game of the season with Lawrence, Taylor, Idris all injured and Chee-Kam suspended.

and for a player being 5th in line for the 2nd row position, he did a job for us in defence. put a quick stop to a few Warriors raids.

What does that mean? Ratings are stats themselves.

for instance everyone looks at the stats and says edwards played shit. is there a stat for 'belted the opposition halfback so hard he was scared to run it for the rest of the game?'

missed tackles are also misleading. if a half runs out of the line, body checks a forward but slips off, stopping the forward who is then jumped on by two defenders im happy with that even though its a missed tackle. whereas if he holds on for dear life as the forward surges 15m with the half hanging off him, then resulting in a quick PTB its still a completed tackle.

prop meters are also way off. if there was a stat for '4th tackle hit up' woods would lead the comp. whereas guys like grant and twal take the hard hit up early in the set before we get any momentum.
