Well...interesting question
It all depends on your definitions and whose stats you use...
The newspaper had North as having 28 hitouts and Glenelg 39. Anyone who saw the game (unless your name is Wedgie) would be very surprised by this relatively even number - Clarke clearly dominated the ruck, and Glenelg had him down as having 65 total hitouts!
What I think you will find (I have very good evidence for this

) is that the guy who did the North hitouts for the paper included ALL hitouts, whereas the guy who did the Glenelg hitouts only recorded "effective" hitouts.
This makes any comparison in the hitouts between the teams basically useless.
