don't take too much out of that. it was obvious what Daley's game plan for Moylan was......have players running off him and he only had to distribute the pill. that shit won't be successful for long if he doesn't provide other threats to his game as a half.
And f**k I hate it when folks just point to numbers at face value. 100m of Teddy's metres were being put through holes by other players. One he bombed for not passing to support, the other he got run down by a stumpy legged midget. He hung onto the pill himself to boost his metre count. Otherwise, he got no penetration at all out of fullback and in the backline. in saying that, he's a big threat like slater was in hitting holes, but just plucking a number without analysing what drives those numbers is a poor way to back up a performance.
it's not the size of the number but how they were gained that's important. gallen and woods making big metres throughout a game means shit when they're gained with slow runs and repeat carries in a set. QLD hold them up and slow their play the ball down repeatedly. In contrast, Frizells metres are much more significant because they're made with explosive runs and he hits the deck rather than gets himself held up in a tackle and gets a quick play the ball for the next play.
