Siya Kolisi made the most dominant tackles per 80 mins of any player in men's Test rugby in 2023; teammate Damian de Allende made the most of any back (400+ mins played):

S Kolisi 2.3

L Tagitagivalu 2.1

N Martins 2.0

D de Allende 2.0

D Fischetti 2.0

But apparently both are shit

Both are solid test players. Neither in my view makes a world 15. 

Allende is a great defensive center and doesn't get the credit he deserves.

Such a great defensive center that he ran for 30 meters next to Mo’unga gifting the ABs a WC final try, fortunately called back for a knock. Did the same thing in 2015 running next to Umaga, and that did take us out of WC 2015. A totally confused defender.  Let alone his screw up when he opened the gates for Marchant to lose the YE tour match a few years back.

Moz are the stats lying then?

Not necessarily….but it’s puzzling I can’t recall one power tackle by Dud ever, just a plastic stretch wrap. As for Kolisi….I recall one, when he flattened the AB in the grasp of another Bok and got his yellowshouldhavebeenared.

Would be nice if you post the source links for these so we can go look at the original articles, Dave.

Edit: never mind, looks like this was an optajonny twitter bit.

Now its look at the stats, but,when we talk about Mostert & his stats, its 'stats se gat'

Mozart

Why do you, constantly lie like that.latest statement of yours.   In a moment of honesty you admotted you never saw anything  positive done by De Allende in any game in other words you refuse to even seen it because you did not want to see it.   That admission of yours clarifies  the  allegations made by you  as worthless BS.

Pakie the source is there Opta

I would have seen it on Facebook

Geez Moz you really are clueless

Everything about de Allende is power - there is absolutely no surprise that he makes the most dominant tackles

I bet he also makes the most dominant carries in traffic as a back

Kolisi is always putting in big hits, it’s his strength along with being our best attacking forward

You clowns just miss the obvious

Blob catch a fucking wake up - there are no stats of any significance when it comes to Mostert

I just pointed out that the ESPN stats are completely wrong in our WC final match against England in 2019 that said Mostert missed no tackles - bullshit he missed one when we had that outstanding goal line defence

It also said he missed no tackles in the playoffs games in this WC - again bullshit - I recall one obvious miss and that’s just the one I remember

I’m quiet happy to point it out
