[QUOTE="Amiga500, post: 985319, member: 56767"] The difference in kicking and tackles is background noise and neither a differentiator worth mentioning. I see the 42.ie had stats up. Try assists: Cooney: 2 McGrath: 6 Murray: 9 Linebreak passes: Cooney: 1 [I find this somewhat hard to believe, I'd swear I've seen him pass off more than once to forward who punch through a hole - I wonder how they define linebreak] McGrath: 8 Murray: 8 Linebreaks: Cooney: 15 McGrath: 8 Murray: 0 Defenders beaten: Cooney: 27 McGrath: 11 Murray: 4 Kicks retained: Cooney: 14% McGrath: 16% Murray: 15% Turnovers: Cooney: 24 McGrath: 9 Murray: 13 On the conclusion of those stats, Cooney makes more linebreaks than Murray makes linebreak passes + linebreaks. Verdict: Cooney. By dint of those linebreaks, he ends up in greater danger of getting isolated and turned over. Hence the turnover stat being much higher - that [I]should not[/I] be used as a stat to beat him with. [/QUOTE]
