Quote: Judder Man "For people who reckon Wellens is NOT an attacking full back
Being a stats-man, I thought'd I'd have a look at this. To give it a bit of context, you need to have a look at the number of carries Wellens makes, he has carried the ball 383 times, for 2312 metres (6m per carry), the following have a better m/carry; Meli 9.2, Solioa 6.9, Makinson 7.6, Laffranchi 7.4, Jones 7.1, Flannery 6.1, Shenton 6.6, Swift 8.7, Dixo, 7.4, Wheeler 7.3, Puletua 8.2, Flanagan 6.2, Clough 8, Perry 7. When you think Wello generally has 10m or so without any defender in front of him. His tries per carry is pretty comparable to the rest of the squad also.
If you just look at the metres per carry for the rest of the league, Hardaker 7.7, Eden 8, Tomkins 7.4, Mathers 5.8, Ratchford 8.3, Hodgson 6.5, S Briscoe 5.8, T Briscoe 8.6
I'm defending Wello.
