INCOMING STATS GEEK HERE!!!
Of the 8 current international options mentioned there (I think Hood is Scottish but he's included in this since he was mentioned) I've looked at the defensive and attacking contributions:
*Appearances are all similar*
TACKLE EFFICIENCY:
8. Leeming - 88.80%
7) McIlorum - 90.90%
6) Ackers - 91.69%
5) McShane - 92.09%
4) Hood - 92.76%
3) Powell - 93.28%
2) Houghton - 93.98%
1) Clark - 94.32%
TRIES AND ASSISTS COMBINED:
8. Powell - 5
7) Hood - 7
6) Houghton - 10
5) Ackers - 11
4) Clark - 12
3) McIlorum - 14
2) McShane - 15
1) Leeming - 16
AVERAGE RANK POSITION FROM BOTH STATS AREAS:
8. Powell - 5.5
7) Hood - 5.5
6) Ackers - 5.5
5) McIlorum - 5
4) Leeming - 4.5
3) Houghton - 4
2) McShane - 3.5
1) Clark - 2.5
Daryl Clark and Paul McShane are therefore the 2 best players for ratio between tackle efficiency and try + assist contributions. Personally I would have taken Leeming anyway, because of how many contributions he had in attack. And I would have taken Clark anyway as well because I genuinely think that Clark is the best of those 8 players.
I stand corrected! Can’t argue with that, thanks.
I must admit, with the naked eye I’ve always admired McIllorum for his defence, but the stats don’t lie!
