Quote: Teessidewire "This makes me wonder if some people really watch the game or stand texting throughout the match. Trent hasn't changed at all from the moment he first arrived, always one of our top tacklers and working really hard in attack to make space for our outside backs. Very consistent first year.'"
When someone averages 28 tackles per game (630 in 22 games) but has been putting in up 40 tackles in his last 8 games (although no-one had to tackle much agaisnst Giants and Hull last week was 'only' 26, the lazy git), then wouldn't that indicate that in his first few games he must've been putting in less? The same Opta stats show his 'metres per game' rising over the season...... = 'improving' not 'consistent'.
I've got no problem with him - think he's a brilliant player that we're now seeing the best of; that was not how he started the season
I'll get back to my texting
