This is absolutely extraordinary.
Justin Tipuric has been one of the few shining lights in Welsh Rugby this season. The national side are struggling, but Osprey’s are flying high thanks to stars like Tipuric who is currently playing out of his bloody skin.
A quite astounding Tipuric statistic has now emerged thanks to the guys over at WalesOnline, and it’s simply begs belief. Justin Tipuric is now up to 160 tackles without a single miss on a rugby field this season.
The bruising back-row bagged a dozen tackles in Ospreys’ impressive win over Connacht on Saturday, taking him up to a whopping 109 tackles made in the Guinness PRO12 this season, with not a single one missed.
He has also completed 20 in three European Challenge Cup matches and had a 100 percent return for Wales during the November international series: 31 tackles attempted, every single one hit.
Anyone that thinks this man shouldn’t start for Lions this year, needs to see this. Unbelievable.
