An extremely worrying stat

[Napper]

Although we played well yesterday, I looked at the stats and noticed Brett Stewart only made one tackle. Before you all state that he is a fullback and only needs to make a tackle to clean up a break, the fact is, if Noone is making breaks he should show initiative and move into the defensive line and make a few tackles so his stats match his pay cheque.

And leave a huge gap for the opposition to lob the footy into?

 

[mickqld]

He's not payed to tackle. He's payed to make 4 try assists.

No he should have the pace to run back there

I thought he was wonderfully involved yesterday , almost MOM.

Couldn't care if he didn't make 1 single tackle, he's NOT there to tackle he's there to,

Organise the defence
Set up try's
Score try's

He probably does but I would prefer him to setup tries and score them 🙂

Is this genuine, or are we all being sarcastic here ?

Gee I've missed you Napper. Spent the time off perfecting your casting technique I see.

Actually, Lawrence is the fastest in the club over 40m so I would've thought it's his job to get back and cover.

Also, Starling hasn't had a try assist all year. I lay the blame with him for why our right side attack isn't quite clicking at present.

Finally won a game with him starting.

Come on. We both know the answer to that.

Stewart could be under instruction by
Coach Toovey, not to do any more defensive work than needed.

 

[Shoe1]

Tooves has probably told the 12 blokes who defend in front of the fullback to tackle the opposition players BEFORE they even get to Brett. This is deliberately excluding Brett from any defensive work, and is a clear case of workplace bullying.

yesterday again found out why snake is so good, he is a champion player. The difference passing, kicking has it all.
He must stay.
