Astonishing figure but you fear how long he can keep this up.

Show off. Just trying to make the Dream team.

I don't fancy him, but I am a bit in love with him. Incredible stats. Super Fitz.

Is it his 'The hills have eyes' stare!

If he gets an injury we will really struggle. Whose inadequacies is he over compensating for, his teammates or his coach? Either way it’s criminal that one player should have to make that amount of tackles in a game, such a waste.

He's 5th in the league for missed tackles. Just as impressive for me is Danny Houghton, 146 tackles and just 3 missed, for a little guy, awesome stats.

Astonishing stats for superFitz. Worrying ones, though, for Hull.

Nothing worrying about it really, he's always been a defensive player throughout his career. Much like Swain was, Hindmarsh at Parramatta, Alker was at Salford tackle machines. Not only the that but this makes them all important players for their respective teams, hence you keep them on the field as long as you possibly can! Cant agree with him moving to prop, hes never a prop, hes an ex international second row put him there! Let him tackle his self to a standstill and lighten his load creatively in offence (which is minimal) and let Westerman do what we paid for at loose forward!

Fitz has said as much himself about the way he plays/has always played but people on here know far better than him. Agree about Westerman as do most people.

As good as the stats are for Fitz thye should not really be celebrated, I fear burnout or injury for both him and Houghton at some stage. I know Fitz has always worked this hard but I just don't see the sense in killing himself every week.

Yeh but its difficult to change the way you play after playing that way for the last 12-15 years! Houghton is slightly different, as I favour rotating the hooking role as theres alot of responsibility in attack, meaning that they get through the most work of any player on the pitch overall. Being made to play the majority of the 80 minutes eventually blunts his effect offensively as the game goes on and without doubt 'burnout'/injury will become apparent if not soon but in the years to come for sure.

He should be playing 60 min per game as a prop with Westerman at 13.
