On paper, an intimidating pair of monsters. Both played to the highest level and stood up well. Yet on grass, the look like pups.
Maybe it is just me in awe of the Burgess boys, but then I checked last weeks stats, and statistically they are pups. Burgess' S and T ran for 151 and 121 respectively, as opposed to RA and JL 55 and 61 meters. Tom Burgess made one less tackle than RA with 21, ad Lima is a while away with 15.
Now I know stats don't mean everything, but is it unrealistic that RA and JL will be replaced by George and Luke upon their return? And as a knock on effect, will they become available for SL clubs? Warrington losing their two first choice (and most likely higher paid) front rowers must be on the recruit for replacements, Wigan losing Mossop, and the Dr is always in the frame, maybe we'll see an exodus from the NRL of front row forwards?
