    Those stats also show Ennor is the best defensive centre by a long way.

    I think he's a very good defender but its not really clear that he's the best. Both Ennor and ALB didn't make a lot of tackles over the season.

    In terms of completed tackles per 80 minutes Ennor is ranked 18 out of 23.

    Well of course that depends on the possession stats how many tackles per 80 min you can make.
    And how the opposition uses possession.

    David Havili was doing all of Ennor's defensive work for him.

      @Chris mate did you see LF defense stats etc in club rugby in France.. He was worst centre over the season in top 14, by quite a bit. The couple of games I saw him play, he made a few breaks and looked great on attack but abysmal on defense, in that he seemed to not even attempt tackles at time. Reckon JAS would have fun running in his channel

      Suaali’i is very poor defensively and could have kittens trying to defend LF.
      Procter adds nothing on attack or defence.

      Yep, but LF is poor on defense and so would be doing same surely. Games I saw him play weren't so much he couldn't tackle, but more he seemed not to attempt them at times. he may of been confused with defsive set up team used or something, and hope they working on it'

      Let’s see how Procter handles Suaali’i it maybe carnage.
      Maybe it was miss communication between LF and French speaking players around him with Toulon.

      Saying Proctor has nothing on attack or defence is garbage. We know what he’s capable of because we’ve seen it for so long. The game plan is garbage and it’s completely fucked his confidence. That’s on the coaches in my view.

      Maybe let’s give Proctor some ball to play with, you know instead of kicking the ball away at 9/10 or crashing the ball up at 12 in almost every play that we do. I’d like the ABs to play with width, they looked so good when they did that in the first 15 mins or so of the last test.

      In the first 15 mins Proctor had three solid touches, one underneath his own sticks to put Carter away when Beauden decided to run it. He’s certainly capable, everyone just needs to do their fking job to a high standard, instead of looking like a bunch of clowns who don’t know what the game plan is.

      We give him the ball and gives away points through and intercept.

      That’s happened to the best players over the years. He needs more ball with more time but he’ll never get it because we have a cart horse 10 that offers nothing these days. Lester, Ennor etc would all struggle at 13 right now with the way our game plan is setup.

      It’s a reflection of the coaches, Proctor has been one of the most consistent players over the last three years and then looks like a completely different player on the test stage. They haven’t exactly helped a young player get accustomed to one of the hardest positions in the game, because the game plan is geared towards our halves and our back three playing aerial ping pong.

      We are all losing faith in Razor and his coaching staff and I hope he gets the boot if we lose the Bled. Deserves too IMO. He’s not ruthless enough to make the hard calls on underperforming senior players and his game plan up until now has been a disaster.

      Let’s hope for everyone’s sake that we hit top gear on Saturday.

        Has he though ? stats do not tell you that .
        It could be the opposition are using the channel Havilli defends in.

              Yeah that's true. The point of showing those stats was not to prove Lam is the best but only to show that your idea of Lam having a bad season wasn't an obvious conclusion. From my own eye test I thought he was close to our best player throughout the season.

They haven’t exactly helped a young player get accustomed to one of the hardest positions in the game, because the game plan is geared towards our halves and our back three playing aerial ping pong.

                  We are all losing faith in Razor and his coaching staff and I hope he gets the boot if we lose the Bled. Deserves too IMO. He’s not ruthless enough to make the hard calls on underperforming senior players and his game plan up until now has been a disaster.

                  Let’s hope for everyone’s sake that we hit top gear on Saturday.

                  If we win it may just paper over the cracks .

                  @Chris mate did you see LF defense stats etc in club rugby in France.. He was worst centre over the season in top 14, by quite a bit. The couple of games I saw him play, he made a few breaks and looked great on attack but abysmal on defense, in that he seemed to not even attempt tackles at time. Reckon JAS would have fun running in his channel

                  Suaali’i is very poor defensively and could have kittens trying to defend LF.
                  Procter adds nothing on attack or defence.

                  Yep, but LF is poor on defense and so would be doing same surely. Games I saw him play weren't so much he couldn't tackle, but more he seemed not to attempt them at times. he may of been confused with defsive set up team used or something, and hope they working on it'

                  Let’s see how Procter handles Suaali’i it maybe carnage.
                  Maybe it was miss communication between LF and French speaking players around him with Toulon.

                  Saying Proctor has nothing on attack or defence is garbage. We know what he’s capable of because we’ve seen it for so long. The game plan is garbage and it’s completely fucked his confidence. That’s on the coaches in my view.

                  Maybe let’s give Proctor some ball to play with, you know instead of kicking the ball away at 9/10 or crashing the ball up at 12 in almost every play that we do. I’d like the ABs to play with width, they looked so good when they did that in the first 15 mins or so of the last test.

                  In the first 15 mins Proctor had three solid touches, one underneath his own sticks to put Carter away when Beauden decided to run it. He’s certainly capable, everyone just needs to do their fking job to a high standard, instead of looking like a bunch of clowns who don’t know what the game plan is.

                  We give him the ball and gives away points through and intercept.

                  That’s happened to the best players over the years. He needs more ball with more time but he’ll never get it because we have a cart horse 10 that offers nothing these days. Lester, Ennor etc would all struggle at 13 right now with the way our game plan is setup.

                  Yeah but at least it will be a start. The Wallabies have won some very big games this year so beating them shouldn’t be sniffed at. If we can win this week and then in Perth it will be a big confidence booster for those players and coaches under pressure. If we lose both then I’d expect jobs to be in the firing line (including Proctor).

                  Let’s hope we’ve learnt something from the second test against the Boks, if we come out and play exactly the same style of rugby and lose, that will be a massive disappointment.

                    Those stats also show Ennor is the best defensive centre by a long way.

                    I think he's a very good defender but its not really clear that he's the best. Both Ennor and ALB didn't make a lot of tackles over the season.

                    In terms of completed tackles per 80 minutes Ennor is ranked 18 out of 23.

                    Well of course that depends on the possession stats how many tackles per 80 min you can make.
                    And how the opposition uses possession.

                    David Havili was doing all of Ennor's defensive work for him.

                    Tackles Per 80 Minutes
                    17.51 David Havili
                    7.49 Braydon Ennor

                      stats are great, until they arent.

                      "Oh, people can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. 14% of people know that"

                      Yeah that's true. The point of showing those stats was not to prove Lam is the best but only to show that your idea of Lam having a bad season wasn't an obvious conclusion. From my own eye test I thought he was close to our best player throughout the season.

                      @brodean not sure i said he had a bad season, just seemed less effective compared to last year to my eye.

                          Missed tackles and the bottom line is pretty telling.

                                    Lukhan Salakaia-Loto has been given the job of Eden Park enforcer after being named to make his first start for the Wallabies this year against the All Blacks on Saturday.

                                    The call-up for the big Queensland lock came as Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt also turned to a new starting partnership in the halves for the opening Bledisloe Cup clash, with Tate McDermott and James O’Connor trusted to run the show for Australia at the intimidating Auckland venue.

                                    LSL vs Vaa'i - the battle of silly penalties can commence at last.

                                      Missed tackles and the bottom line is pretty telling.

                                          He wasn’t moving freely in that last 10 minutes of the Boks match, was even mentioned during the game. I don’t think it’s just a shoulder either.

                                          I think it was last year in Super he came off early without any obvious ‘incident’ and it looked like his lower back was an issue.

                                          Hard to get right, although surgery is sometimes an answer.

                                          A shadow of the player he was in 2023 when one of two best locks in world rugby.
