Was Bryn as invisible as he was against Wire?

Maybe this is why he's so slow on the turn ... when mankind is taking a giant leap he's only taking one small step.

Frodshams stats from game are as follows:-

63 metres gained in 9 carries
20 tackles made 3 missed tackles

What do you conclude from those?

An average of 7 yards per carry (which is good, i'd say) and an 87% tackle completion rate (not so good).

BUT it is workable. IIRC, Maurie was working off a 3 misses a game rate in 2006.

Its not awful, and he still made 20 tackles. You can't really trust a one off stat, there may have been extenuating circumstances (ie a slip) for one or two of them. We'll look at that again in a few matches.

Can you tell me Bryn's comparable stats? He's going to be Frodsham's yardstick, after all.

Bryn makes 7 yards P/C Slightly less tackles per game than Frodsham, but appears to work hard around the ruck. Like many, if he has the chance, I think Frodsham will out grow Bryn this season. Maturity goes a long way for a player, take Jammer.

Pretty decent for a 19 year old prop. He was making yards and doing the work defensively

Obviously room for improvement, but that can be expected.

As a comparison at the same age Graham was making 34 metres a game and around 6.1 metres per carry
Defensively Graham was making 14 tackles a game

Graham is not a big meter maker per carry, but he is a big metre maker because he makes lot of carries.

I hope that makes sense.
