We're currently bottom of the tackles league table, 32 fewer than Quins in 13th and 528 fewer than Huddersfield (in second but played 7 games, not 8 like Wigan) who have made exactly the same number of errors as us.
I suppose as top-scoring side in SL, we've received our fair share of ball from kick-offs, but it does seem very strange. Ideas anyone?

I think in all of our games so far this season we've had a majority of the posession and for that reason, spent less time defending than other teams. That's probably all this stat reflects.
Getting older is mandatory; growing up is optional.

We've also – I think – scored more points than anyone else and were the first team to clock up 100 points this season. Which seems to tie in with fewer tackles, as far as a I can see.

Aye. We're pretty high up in terms of carries and metres too which is further supportive evidence.

FWIW
Me and my son were looking at this on Saturday (Cas were 3rd from bottom then). I pointed it out to him and he said ''that's good it means we have the ball more''
Proves he knows a lot more about rugby than me. He is 9 BTW.
