2020 run metres

[Evo]

....We're second last, only better than Broncos (Check NRL page)

"Manly started off from the round three resumption with a bang, running 1930 metres in a win over Canterbury, and were hanging with the pack for eight rounds after that. However their recent five-game losing streak has coincided with a huge drop in their weekly run metres, gaining around 1300 metres in losses to Penrith and Souths and running just 1100 in last week's dire loss to the Storm"

Says a lot. GOTTA improve effort and possession boys.

Our top metre eaters - AFB comes in at 28, Jake at 42 and Garrick at 76 - that’s pretty bad

 

[The Who]

Have we scored a try, post Turbo's injury, that started from our side of the halfway line?
The top teams score plenty of them.

Where is our running halfback on the list.
I keep hearing he isnt a playmaker and has to doit all himself.
As a result he should have heaps more ball
Surely his running game is on point

Asking for a friend

in fairness we should be low on all attacking stats as we never get an even share of the ball because we are always kicking off. And being dominated by having to run it out of our corners

Defence and missed tackles, low % plays, **** kicks, we should be smashing those tables.

Our main forwards are back. And we’re still not making any metres. It’s not only the backs not performing.

 

[robbiea]

Hard to make metres when continuously tackling.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Exactly. They only count running metres while you have the ball!
I've seen Des derided here recently for talking abou the importance of possession but in the 2020 game it seems more important than ever.
Overall I'm sure we run as much as anyone else but usually its chasing the opposition!

Have we scored a try, post Turbo's injury, that started from our side of the halfway line?

Mate, I can barely remember us scoring a try at all since Tommy went down. They've been so few and far between I'll take them from anywhere!
