Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3145339, member: 9052"] Wasnt really looking to take a shot at Milford, I was generally interested to see what their tackling efficiency looked like compared to how many missed tackles they have... was also looking to bring some context before the inevitable "bwah Croft is missing tackles... see his defence is shit. Get him out!!" I think fox may be deliberately misleading with what they're putting up. By listing out names and numbers with no context they have planted a seed in people's minds that player x, y & z are letting their team down when in reality almost all the players on that list have an efficiency rate above 90%. Interesting to note that Darius also has 10 missed tackles, which is the same as Herbie, but they've decided to include Herbie and omit Darius... why?? Darius is the bigger name so why not put him in the list and let the fans do some more bashing.... couldn't be because they have released a couple articles recently saying that Darius is the second best defensive centre in the comp and having his name in the list of missed tackles undermines their previous articles could it. With most of the players being over 90% it actually suggests missed tackles may not be a concern for the team despite our horrendous defence... but fox haven't done any sort of digging to find out what our issues in defence actually are, because they don't really care. They haven't exposed how far off our discipline apparently is compared to the rest of the comp... wouldn't want to expose any sort of favouritism and go against the #penaltybroncos narrative now would we. How about how many run meters we concede... how brittle our edge defence is (number of times attacked vs how many tries we let in would be interesting). Fox have literally done the bare minimum to get clicks "who's the worst player on your team... click here to see the facts" It's just lazy, but what else is new. [/QUOTE]
