Message: [QUOTE="Morepudding, post: 3222697, member: 8923"] You can’t compare the stats to back then. The game is very different now. There is a lot more time now actually playing, with shot clocks, reduced interchanges etc players in the forwards, particularly when starting, are getting more minutes. The other is the increase in speed of play, defensive lines are retreating more often so of course the metres increases. a stat that isn’t reported, but I think should be, is how many metres are made on the next hit up. That’s what sets taumololo and Papali apart to most forwards. The next hit up after them is usually a good one because of their good run and play the ball. also, the tackle efficiency stat is shit. Boyd had a 98% efficiency at fullback, but that’s because when he missed, he didn’t even touch the guy so it didn’t count as a miss... same goes for offa, the amount of times someone just ran around the useless **** because he wasn’t looking was ridiculous [/QUOTE]
