Berry is out of form and the ‘great tackler’ is becoming a bit of a myth.
He’s tackled at a lowly 85% this year which is below
Pompey and
Ali (who was dropped for him) and
Ali actually has an attacking game.
Ali and
Pompey also physically dominate in tackles, which
Berry doesn’t have.
Ali and
Pompey have averaged 91m and 101m this season, keeping our forwards fresher than Berrys 69m…
I’ve waited for
Berry to break out but injury has really hampered the guy and it’s now hampering the team. MTG made 84% tackles and 128m in his game and was fired by the forum as a comparison.
