How typical. The set up was easy to use....one could go back to the 2014 S15. The stats were comprehensive....now we have lost tackles missed in the standard format and have to dig for it. It looks crisp, but it isn't nearly as functional. A pain.

Agreed, it's a pain in the arse these days.....tried to look up clean breaks and defenders beaten in the WC......found clean breaks on the WC site

Dave if you look under "players" and then under "attack" the numbers are still there. But not tackles missed. The split between attack and defence is inefficient...and getting to the game is more cumbersome.

Yeah I have found that quite easily but as you say, tackles missed are no longer there.....how do you find them?

 You can do this by getting to one of the old formats, and substituting the match number in the address. I fortunately had a few matches logged under favorites.

 found that the Super 215 stats was changed and summarized =- but not the tests stats,   Unfortunately a few matches of your favorite matches are meaningless, stats through a tournament indicates trends in players - one match sytats are not indicative of such trends.   
But then you are a one match junkie - or worse still an idiot that one incident in a game happening in a year of games is career-defining, so you may use one or to matches a year to support the junk you spread on this site,   Selective usage of stats to support only your version of events and ignoring stats in all other cases is BS.
I will be helpful though - for tests stats introduced by ESPN since 2012 - use the following site:-

That's a better approach and bypasses the new format. Thanks.
