Show how stellar a player Jon Wilkin is, much to the shock of all the stupid feckwits on here. 6 tackles busts, 2 clean breaks, 44 tackles, 2 tries, 2 try assists, 11 marker tackles and 14 carries for more metres than one of our starting prop. That's just his performance against Salford.

He's superb.

Jon Wilkin - 44 tackles against Salford, must be some sort of record.

Nah, Joynty would rack up that many in the first half of most games. Wilkin's still an apprentice.

The Wheeler entries for Salford are incorrect - due to a technical problem beyond our control (it was missed okay )- the update is waiting to be posted

I thought that too, the actual error count was 3.

Thats not that spectacular these days. I think the record is in the high 60's.

One thing that stands out to me though is the meters made against Celtic. How did you only manage 1 try?

Scully had the record at one point when he was at wire (about 54) which was then broken by Steel Retchless. The really high tackle counts tended to come from a good player being overworked by being in a rubbish team (my theory anyway).

Hence Malcolm Alker's permanent residence at the top of the SL tackling charts.
