Ireland. 6/8/0/0/1/ 1

France. 7/18/0/0/0/1

England. 8/14/2/0/0/0

All Blacks. 5/27/0/2/0/0

Total. 33/94/2/2/1/4.

So Dud ran the ball 33 times and gained 94 metres at just below 3 a carry. But his two big gaining games against Scotland and the ABs came with no defenders beaten. In other words he was running through open field.

In 33 runs he broke the line twice! And in 4 of five games, 31 of 33 runs he never beat a tackle. And he offloaded exactly once, which meant not only did he not provide any penetration he just died with the ball.

But that was the good news, 4 times he coughed up the ball. That’s a negative 100 metres right there wiping out his meagre 94 metres gained..

That’s a total fail in running.

There are no other ESPN stats, so I can’t comment on his lineout work. But ordinary defending and toothless ball carrying to me doesn’t add up to the best Bok loosie at the WC, let alone the best Springbok of all time,

You know Mozart - your sats is routine amateur shit and not used by experts when they undertake player performance assessments,

Experts….you mean old jocks who couldn’t calculate the average of two 3 digit numbers?

Mike have you ever met such an ignorant arrogant old nutjob as mozzietard in real life? imagine thinking you know it all about rugby when you never played at a high level never coched, never spent years thinking an studying the game etc .

If Rassie went on like this clown he would be slated. Rassie of course would be in a position to make comments like that but mozzietard is definitely not.. The oak is a walking disaster when it comes to assessing rugby issues especially coaches and players. His political assessments can be just as bad.

Diversion….fails

There are lies, damned lies and stats. Hahahahahahahahaha nothing is worse than a crooked statistician

Well maybe an incompetent surgeon.
