I don’t get this at all. If there is any doubt why would you risk it. Seems they’re leaving it up to the player too. Of course May is going to want to play. I’ll be furious if he pings his calf.

Zane also trained with us for a week over the summer.

Out of Bounce on the Full

Here is the evidence. Surely this is a [censored] take and will be fixed in a patch.

Who are you tipping this week?

As a team you're not going to have possession of the ball 100% of the time. Pressure is absolutely critical. It's a big reason I have a replica Premiership cup sitting on my desk.

Here is the Fox Footy Pressure gauge measurements

Whilst Pressure Acts might make up a stat they are also subjective as to whether the stat actually had a positive or zero effect. Just because you are chasing someone doesn't necessarily mean you are applying pressure. There might even be a case to make that that player was second to the footy and has just been chasing tail all day. I'm not suggesting that this is always the case. The points system above helps in weighting the pressure as higher the closer the player gets to the target. Whilst pressure is very important and absolutely has to be applied when you don't have the footy but I would prefer to be the ones with footy in hand.
