    @bones teams with George Bridge in them seem to function better than teams with Reiko Ioane

    Really? Shit I didn't even notice Bridge playing for the AB's. What test was that?

    Why is Marshall saying Naholo shouldn’t have been allowed to go for that turnover in which he won the penalty?

    He was the first man on his feet to the tackle, of course he is allowed a crack FFS, doesn’t matter how many people were involved in the tackle and now on the ground.

    He seemed to be saying that you can't get a turnover from a ruck.

    @kev bits of everything but if the defender had held back on his marker the ball carrier would likely have held on for a few more steps giving the rest of the D time to get in line. If he had still passed early then it was a pass behind the gain line with a chance for defenders to come across. As it was the defender forced the pass to a man in a gap made even bigger by rushing up.

    It's Marshall. What does he know anyway. Just ignore the twat.

    Yea, that’s the problem. How was it a ruck when Naholo was the first one there?

    @tim said in Crusaders v Highlanders:

    @hydro11 What are those?

    Metres gained in contact is an obvious one. Pure speed as well.

    Also ball security and tackle work rate to name a couple more.

    Naholo...needed to pass earlier. Thompson was in perfect position, Marshall you egg. Naholo just got too greedy.

    Ball security how? Tackle work rate as in - attempts more tackles?

    @bones Savea concedes less turnovers than Todd. This is also despite handling the ball a whole heap more.

    Tackle work rate as in makes more tackles per minute of rugby than Todd.

    @toddy Interesting, what's the stats?

    Fucken hell, knock on by Crusaders leads to penalty for Crusaders. Go figure.

    Todd is also six years older. He didn't get picked for the ABs until he was Savea's current age.

    Since then Todd has got better, but is now unlikely to improve much more. Savea might well improve considerably in the way Todd did.

    In a close call you'd always go with the younger.

    Todd is still getting better. Why is he unlikely to improve much more....because he's already way better? Savea is unimproving.

    @toddy all at Super level, whenever I've seen Tood and Ardie in BLack, there is only one I'd have.

    I guess I should concede then. Savea is much better at the facet of providing stats with no clear relevancy due to a lack of context.

    Obviously relevant to Hansen. But what would he know.
