HTA was Pittonet 10, TDK 3.
FWIW Marshall also had 10.....even though he attented 19 more ruck contests and had 7 more hitouts than Pittonet, end result was same. 10 each to advantage.
Can you provide the complete stats of last weeks game of Marshall, Pitt and TDK?
While pits ruck craft is very good the game doesn’t end after the hit out.
While TDK doesn’t have Pitts ruck craft yet but is superior imo in all other aspects after the bounce which imo makes him more valuable to the team.
I’m ok with both in the line up as I can see his value in wearing ruckman down to enable TDK to have a period where he can influence the game which is great I just get very frustrated with Pitts lack of footy smarts when being too loose when dangerous rucks float forward and he is jogging 5 metres behind and can’t get to the contest.
