Chart Toppers - Carries
- 2037
A full weekend of action has finished and we hit some big carry numbers yet again. The top 8 performers range from accross a number of tournaments and it is evenly split between the backs and forwards.
Carries:
28 Viliame Mata - Edinburgh
The Fijian Olympian 7's Medalist was heavily involved in the 1 point win by Edinburgh over Treviso. A whopping 28 carries in a game is almost unheard of as the big 8th man ran for 59 meters, beating 2 defenders.
26 Siale Piutau - Bristol
Piutau was the best performing back in this category and not only did he put in 26 carries but made 3 offloads off his hard work in midfield.
22 Gregory Alldritt - La Rochelle
Alldritt is the only Top 14 representative in the top 3 and his shift on the losing end of a battle with Bordeaux Begles. His 22 carries & 3 defenders beaten on the day brings him in at 3rd for the weekends charts.
18 Sione Kalamafoni - Leicester
17 Dane Haylett-Petty - Australia, Jean-Marcellin Buttin-Lyon, Alex Goode-Saracens, Alan O'Connor-Ulster
