There were not 40 line breaks. There were 40 tackle busts, which is a lot but not the same.
If someone charges at the line, bursts through the tackle of the first man, but is brought to ground by the next one in, thats a tackle bust. Not unusual on a wet pitch.
For something to be a line break, you have to get through the line and retain your feet/balance. Catalans achieved two of these in the match: one by Makinson and one by Balmforth. Warrington managed four: one each by Wrench, Williams, Dufty and Josh Thewlis.
Yep. 2 line-breaks makes more sense.
