The bad stat: Where your club struggled in 2015

RICHMOND

Tackle differential               -7.7         15th
Forward half stoppages      33.0        16th
Hitout win %                    40.4%        13th

SUMMARY


After being ranked in the top five when it came to winning forward half stoppages in 2014, the Tigers fell away last season to plunge to 16th in the competition.

Even though they had No.1 ruckman Ivan Maric for 22 games after his injury-hit previous year, they also won fewer than half the hit-outs they contested to be ranked 13th.

While they maintained their presence as a consistent outfit when it came to winning contested possessions, their tackling was again ranked low within the League – 15th overall – which was still an improvement on 2014 when they were 17th.
