Nope. From 6 to 7.
Max Gawn had 14k/11hb/11m/39ho just yesterday.

Brodie Grundy was close on the weekend but he already had a game of 12k/11hb/10m/32ho in R17, 2016.

Toby Nankevis was also close on the weekend and he too has a game of 19k/10hb/10m/17ho from R6 this year.

Dean Cox, Stefan Martin, Peter Everitt have a whole heap between them and that's just with a quick search of a few players that sprung to mind.

Martin has four on his own.

That's all their only one though.

For hit outs to be a countable stat in this argument you would have to scale it way up. Would need to be 30 or 40+ hitouts to be equivalent

Stef's HO totals in his four were 28, 30, 38, and 40.

Cox got three with HOs of 20, 27, and 28 (he fell short on handballs a lot).

Looking at HOs vs tackles (given that's what it'll replace, as I only found a single game by a possession-winning ruckman with 10 tackles. Mumford, OTOH has half a dozen), 16 tackles puts you in the top 10 list so the threshold is 160% of the quadruple double. Using that maths, it should be about 36 HOs (160% of that puts you at 58 and in the top 10).

That would limit it to three ruck instances amongst the most obvious candidates (Gawn x1, Martin x2) and two more from a historic example (Dempsey x2, down from 15 if it was just double digits).

Of course, it's not nearly as catchy.

True but both of them are still young and hitting their primes. I imagine it won't be the last time we see them do it. It takes away the fun of the OP's original concept when you include hitouts. We go from salivating about a player getting close to it for the first time in 3 years and joining the exclusive group of 5 players, but if we include hitouts, it happened just a measly 24 hours ago and happened just a few weeks before that too.

I actually agree, but for a different reason - a single person getting 15 quadruple doubles is insane.

Agreed.

I found David Hille is another player with multiple quadruple doubles with HOs. Who were the other players to feature that you found?

I was surprised to see that Adam Goodes was absent. He didn't handball a lot in his first few years and he only really started pulling in a lot of marks towards the end of his career.

I just did a quick scan through the rucks with the top hit-out totals as part of doing the maths on topping 30/35/40 HOs as a reasonable compromise.
