FWIW, his season total is as follows.
He has competed in 296 ruck contests so far this season.
He has won 134 hitouts (45%)
He has a total of 49 hitouts to advantage so far this season.
So 37% of the hitouts he wins go directly to our advantage.
and 17% of all ruck contests he competes in, goes to our advantage.
That means a little over 1 in 6 ruck contests he competes in, the ball goes directly to our advantage.
Can you imagine getting the ball handed to you via a free kick from 1 in 6 stoppages? That is essentially what he is doing with his ruck work.
Which is why i'm banging on about his efforts thus far because by the AFLs own stats, he is ELITE in that area.
