point-scoring machines have been busy in the first half of the season, with Bulls star Pollard topping the pops on 110 largely due to his accurate boot. The dangerous Damian McKenzie has been doing duty at flyhalf and fullback and sits in second place on 81. The Chiefs playmaker was particularly prolific when he masterminded his team\u2019s crushing win (56-20) over the Bulls at Loftus in Round Six. The always dangerous Aussie, Quade Cooper, rounds off the top three in the colours of the Melbourne Rebels on 77.<\/h4>\n
Super Rugby is synonymous with terrific tries and this season has seen some scorchers so far. The flyers out wide have been finishing in style and three of them – Crusaders fullback Will Jordan, Rebels No.15 Jack Maddocks and Blues wing Reiko Ioane – share top spot with eight tries each. The list is not reserved for backline players, though, with forwards Folau Fainga’a (Brumbies), Shannon Frizell (Highlanders) and Marnus Schoeman (Lions) all having a knack for crossing the whitewash as well.<\/h4>\n
Every team has its danger men and battering rams \u2013 players of different stature who share a common goal of breaching opposition defences, whether it be through force or speed. Centre Samu Kerevi has carried the Reds on his back this season and is the only player in triple figures. Loose forwards Dan du Preez and Akira Ioane have been huge for the Sharks and Blues respectively and round off the top three.<\/h4>\n
Aka flyer miles, as outside backs dominate this division, using their speed and agility to maximum effect. Samoan-born Blues wing Melani Nanai and the Sunwolves\u2019 South African speedster Gerhard van den Heever have been miles ahead of the rest, with the former narrowly shading the latter. Waratahs star Israel Folau, who\u2019s been dominating headlines and whose career appears to be over due to his controversial comments on social media, is a distant third, while Sharks wing Makazole Mapimpi is the sole South African franchise player in the top 10.<\/h4>\n
Rugby at its finest, clean breaks are the payoff for patient offence, the product of inventive vision and\/or individual skill, the moments that make fans jump out of their seats. Rieko Ioane has been the personification of the phrase like a hot knife through butter, making 18 clean breaks for the Blues. Crusaders wing Sevu Reece is second with 16 and that man Folau third with 15, while Mapimpi (14) and the Bulls\u2019 Rosko Specman (13) add South African flavour to the list.<\/h4>\n
These are the magic men, the hot steppers whose fancy footwork leave defenders chasing shadows. Joint-best in this exciting category are Crusaders ace David Havili and Reds danger man Kerevi, followed closely by the Blues\u2019 Nanai on 35. The general lack of creativity from South African sides, who prefer to stick to their traditional strengths, means that no local players are in the top 10.<\/h4>\n
The undeniable Folau is in first place, the former Rugby League star not only becoming Super Rugby\u2019s all-time top try-scorer but also creating tries and space for those around him through 19 offloads. Chiefs back Anton Lienert-Brown is the next best with 18, followed by a trio – multi-skilled Jaguares flank Pablo Matera, \u2018Saders second rower Whetu Douglas and Lions fullback Andries Coetzee – tied in third place with 12.<\/h4>\n
Just as important as the try scorers, yet not nearly as celebrated, are the workhorses on defence – the tackling titans who put their bodies on the line week in and week out. Waratahs captain Michael Hooper is the only centurion with a whopping 102 tackles, with another Australian loose forward, the Rebels\u2019 Luke Jones, second on 94 and Crusaders flank Matt Todd third on 92. Special mention must be made of Stormers utility forward Pieter-Steph du Toit, who\u2019s joint-fourth with the Reds\u2019 Liam Wright on 89 despite having only played six matches due to injury.<\/h4>\n
The agile tall timbers\/pillars of strength are responsible for clean lineout ball in order to provide the ideal attacking platform for the backline. The lineout is a game within a game, and it\u2019s Guido Petti Pagadizaval who\u2019s standing tall at the halfway stage of the season with 37 takes. Brumbies duo Sam Carter (32) and Rory Arnold (31) complete the top three, while Lions lock Marvin Orie is fourth with 30.<\/h4>\n
