Where will SBW rank among the game's best ever second rowers?

I didn't realise 3rd or 4th man in, was counted with a tackle.

Bit rich coming from someone who has boasted about the importance of tackle counts in the past

I have seen so many 40 tackle a game hard footballers not even recognised by the rep selectors or talent scouts; and lost to Parra and, at times, the game.

Still doesn't explain why they count 3rd or 4th man in with a tackle.

Are you suggesting SBW was 1st man in, in 41 tackles?

Magpie4ever = alwaysgreen.

What a imbecilic comment. Did you watch the game you fool?
Did you see his one on one tackles ?
Jealousy is a curse. Grow up

Was Nathan Hindmarsh 1st man in, in how ever many tackles fans used to wank on about, week after week?

What does Fat Krion and the other two think of that comment?

Nathan Hindmarsh.
You mean the bloke who will be remembered as one of the games greatest ever back rowers?

 

[GONZO72]

Everyone thinks you are a non entity.
The word loser springs to mind.....

Never said he was, my comment was with regard to junior rep selectors overlooking defensive type players then wondering why you see NYC scores blow out.

I want to hear from Fat and Pip.

Regardless, the stats say SBW made 41 tackles in a very grueling and intense defensive game of footy. Unfortunately, as the game has evolved, one-on-one tackles aren't all that important nowadays unless you're a winger or a centre pulling off a try saving tackle. For a forward, or in general for the team, getting numbers in the tackles is what is important to slow down the play the ball. He has contributed to our defensive line not being breached and that's what counts.

You just did.

Are you familiar with the tele movie 'Sybil' m4e?

Disturbing and relevant I think.

Fair call; but shows the falsehood of stats in the modern game (which has become a wrestling match).

Yeah, Sally Field; but, they all don't agree with each other (all the times). Just wondering.

 

[Loudstrat]

Last night you saw the defensive qualities of SBW.

41 massive tackles.

The man is a juggernaut

He did and he played great

116m
41 tackles
1 missed tackle

You should have watched the NRL instead of the AFL

Pathetic. Last week only bog average forwards had bit tackle stats :lol::lol:

Even Robbo was critical of their attack. I would be too if you had someone who we better than Burge, Raper, Coote, Beetson, Miles, Price,Clyde et al and could only score 4 points! :lol:

 

[Tipster]

He is the greatest

Hey Fat; you are back; how are the other selves (pip & gonzo) going?

 

[Jono078]

For me he is the best ever. He is the Andrew Johns of forwards IMO.
