Seems to me we should be looking for a forward who can provide some offload action, having said that it hasn't hurt Penrith though either. Also interesting that we don't have anyone in the top 20 for hitups.

 

[Killer03]

I think the hitups shows how a lot of other teams have their back 3 doing a lot, and that's something we've lacked this year. You can see half of these players are part of a teams back 3.

But I think this has been shown by Jorge missing time with an injury, plus when he came back he wasn't doing it, and then Hiku and Snake certainly aren't big on hitups.

Amazing stat there for Snake on try assists.

 

[Berkeley_Eagle]

Didn't DCE have 9 try assists in one game v Canberra

 

[Chip and Chase]

He had 4 TA's in that game against the Faders

Not really amazing all the work done at the line by Foran to suck in defenders take a hit at the line and setting up second man plays with the best delayed pass opens up opportunities on the outside.

Forans numbers are down as he has been doing all that hard work in the middle both sides this year passing deep to Stewart, Matai and DCE, basically playing as the half.

Cooper Cronks numbers are fantastic as he is the focal point of attack and does not rely as much on others to create space for him such a polished structured player.

Sorry not amazing stats there from Snake.
