As a coach at a professional club, Powell should have data on every facet of every players performance in training and games at his fingertips.
Analysis of such data most definitely is part of his and his coaches teams responsibilities.
So, on the assumption that such analysis takes place, can we expect Dudson (15 metres, 4 drives v Cas) to be dropped? If not, why not? It's not the first time his stats have been appaling.
If something has gone wrong in the dressing room maybe the lopsided, undroppable nature of some performances in the face of damning evidence might be a cause.
I wondered this too. To think that Green is being kept out of the side by a fellow player with those stats.
Or maybe its the old "he does the little things that we can't see".

re. Dudson's stats Hard to believe. But as we normally have the backs hitting it up for the first few tackles ... it may be that we never got round to the end of the sets. Alternatively I have known them get the stats wrong. Have to watch the game I suppose ... but they are odd.
I’m not sure how he could show his face at training next to Vaughan with those numbers. If that was a building site or similar, he’d be getting it from his peers let alone the coach.
You’d like to thing there’s a reaction coming on Thursday, fired up and determined to prove his worth.

The bloke who does the stats lives around the corner, I think I’ll have to ask him if his spreadsheet is knackered or if Dudson did indeed advance as far as an asthmatic ant with some heavy shopping.

And this is the same Holbrook who has been sacked by Titans because of results?
But also the same Holbrook who was held in high esteem for his tenure at Saints.
Was he a great coach at Saints or a poor coach at Titans?
Did he recruit the Saints side or was it handed to him on a plate by (I think) Anderson?
Interesting points.
He picked up the KFC mess So nothing handed to him on a plate - although the sum of the parts was better than what KFC was getting out of them at that point
