Mayne seems to be a bit of a team whipping boy (I was guilty of this early in the season )so I thought I would compare a couple of key stats between him and Cyril Rioli.
Mayne from 2011 to 2015 has kicked 25, 39, 37, 13, 28 goals in each season respectively, giving a total of 142 for that 5 year period. Over that same period Cyril has kicked 29, 39, 19, 20 and 42 goals in each season, giving a total of 149 goals.
Inthat same time period Mayne had a tackle count for each season of 92, 83, 110, 91 and 122 giving a total of 499. Cyrils tackle count over the same period was 95, 121, 65, 45, 104 giving a total of 428.
Given he is only seven goals behind Cyril over that period but 71 tackles in front, why do we give Mayne such a hard time?
