Message: [QUOTE="Justwin, post: 3354247, member: 15096"] It would be good to know the number of effective tackles made per game/season by the comps’ top tier hookers since the rule changes. If Turps is smashing out 45+ on average and smith, grant, cook, etc. are at 35 there could be something in it. Defensive balance in the pack will obviously be different from team to team and there’s something motivating for everyone when they see their dummy snap a dude in half, though it would be interesting to see if there is a trend. From memory Turpin’s numbers were always very high, that may translate to a lack of spark/energy in attack. The best hookers are probably those with the right balance of effective defence and sharp attack and an ability to adapt during the game rather than a constant heavy weighting either way. Not the case with Turpin. [/QUOTE]
