He said metres made PER GAME, not metres made in total which obviously would be skewed by amount of games played.

What is the problem with you diving in and putting a downer on anything positive about the team/ club. Are you a Rhinos fan or a WUM.

He did, you are correct.
Although considering they are now joint sixth in that stat on average gain, and even behind the Giants, I still believe it was an irrelevant point to make.
They are second in the most missed tackles, but I guess that is not allowed to be mentioned. So we will stick with the top off loaders, which to be fair is something me personally like to see in the game.

I think the point I was trying to support was the improvement in attitude since the Cas game.

I know, I was being sarcastic. But pointing it out anyway.

We are joint 6th on average gain per carry....yet as pointed out we are making 2nd most metres per game so really all you've pointed out is that we are getting more of the ball than the opposition, is this a problem?
You wrongly criticise someone for using a stat based on other teams playing less but then use the missed tackle stat to criticise the team. As the previous poster mentioned are you a Leeds fan or a WUM???
The point he made was much more relevant than your latest BS rumour from your mate at Show Me The Money that's for sure.

Warrington have missed the fewest tackles this season according to the stats too, maybe if they started missing more they could kick start their season

Plenty of debate to be had re-performances/selections etc but its a fair point.
Stats don't always portray the full picture within a game but this one you mention is spot on the points on the board from the W column are the most important & the crucial one that will determine where we finish.

What rumour? McDermott hasn't been sacked again has he, like last year?

As usual you jump in without thought. My point was accurate and relevant as it demonstrated how well we have progressed. That you chose to defend your default position of chief critic and negative commentator of the club you purport to follow with further negativity at a time when we should be celebrating an improvement in our fortunes shows your opinions for their true worth.

So some stars are allowed and some not? Seems a bit hypocritical al of you don't you think?

No one said some stats aren't allowed. You criticised the stat he brought up because some teams had played less games even though he said PER GAME.....and you then came up with the one about missed tackles saying we've conceded the 2nd most, disregarding that we've played more. A closer look will tell you that only 3 teams are missing more tackles PER GAME than us.

these things get made up as we go along.
It was clearly stated that if not a positive stat, then you are being negative. Not just one post either. Hence, not allowed. I even posted the positive about offloads, but only a negative is responded on. Difference is I show a balanced position.
I mentioned missed tackles in comparison to the metres made stat, nothing more. Although it is a poor stat, it has no more bearing at this stage than the metres one does.
At this stage stats are worthless until at the very least all teams have played each other and the same amount of games. They do not show progression without that full comparison,
