[Dazzat]

Biggest hitter of all time: Charlie Frith - played for South Sydney in the 1970s or so.

Slammin' Sammy Rapira, woot

Sam has one of the best front on techniques I've seen. He always drives low and hard and takes players legs out from under them. Love watching him tackle. Who was the Storm player he hit in round 3 or 4? That was brutal.

Does someone know who has maded the most tackles so far this season?

Where can I find stats like this? Most linebreaks this season so far etc? Other than the RLW....

 

[skeepe]

If you're looking for big hitters, then this year it has to be someone from the Canberra Raiders... leading the competition with 78 "big-hit" tackles according to NRL.com's preview of the Raiders vs Tigers match. As a comparison, the Tigers have made 16.
