How can something not tangible be measured ?So pressure acts not exactly a concrete metric.
They're concrete alright and measured every game.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Each disposal has pressure assigned to it, ranging from no pressure for a set position to closing, corralling, chasing or physical pressure. A pressure act is when a player has applied either closing, corralling, chasing or physical pressure."
"Weighted sum of pressure acts. Under the Champion Data pressure point scoring system physical pressure acts are worth 3.75 points, closing pressure acts are worth 2.25 points, chasing pressure acts are worth 1.50 points, and corralling pressure acts which are worth 1.20 points."

Physical pressure acts obviously include tackles, smothers, spoils, etc.
Forward pressure has never been more important in Australian Rules football.
