Hi, I have two tickets for this match which I am unable to use.
Would like to find them a new home f.o.c., but the club is
unable to help.
If you would like the tickets, please email me directly and I
will forward them to you.
(New to this forum, so believe, rather than know, that users
will be able to email me.)

I mean he used to run away from tackles when he played for us,
despite believing his own hype.
He’s annoyingly a much better player after his time in the
wilderness but I’d back Isgro against almost everyone.

Gabs has improved his tackling and work rate under Pat Lam, but
he still has the flaws in his positioning that a lot of
super-quick players have. Because he’s always been able to get
away with it, he gives opponents too much room, and a smart (or
very speedy) one can still exploit that.

Isgro didn't exactly set the world alight for Argentina and Gabs
has been tearing it up for a while now. Think we should be more
worried...
Power packed Bristol side, could be very tricky. Shame we don't
have Marcus

I'm just sad I've got to go with in Gloucestershire today or I'd
try and find a ticket for Joe's last game. I'll watch it in the
TV though with a beer in hand 🍺

Playing Ireland and France is a bit different from playing club
sides or even Australia A.
Comparing like with like:
Ibitoye (6 Prem games)
Metres per game: 83
Metres per carry: 7.8
Clean breaks per game: 1.66
Defenders beaten per game: 3.83
Tackles per game: 3.166
Penalties/YC/RC per game: 0.5 / 0.166 / 0
Tries per game: 0.833
Isgro (2 Prem games)
Metres per game: 88.5
Metres per carry: 10.4
Clean breaks per game: 3.5
Defenders beaten per game: 3
Tackles per game: 7
Penalties/YC/RC per game: 0 / 0 / 0
Tries per game: 1.5
It's early days for Isgro, but he's ahead of Gabs on every stat
bar defenders beaten and noticeably better on tackles and tries
scored.

One thing about Gabs not shown in the stats is that he often
sparks off or plays a big hand in try scoring passages of play
even if he doesn't get to dot the ball down himself.

2 matches is not a relevant sample size.

I think that if we keep playing down Gabs' wing, that'll keep
him tied up. Kick behind him but make sure the first player
there makes a tackle. Nullify at source, easier said than done,
of course.

It's not a statistically significant sample size (which is why I
said it's early days), but it is a relevant sample size because
it's the only one we've got. Isgro in his limited game time has
been at least comparable on everything we've got comparable
stats on - and the difference in tackle stats is quite stark.
