Thanks for the work and effort compiling these data.

The statistics are very enlightening, and give an idea of each individual's performance.

I wonder whoever compiles the data could add "minutes played"which would give a more accurate way of comparing individual performances.

Cheers

Ch.

Sorry Mate - the stats dont come with any minutes played.

Quite possibly the official stats compiled for the Saints may have them but I have no access to them.

So for better or worse this is the best I can do.

Thanks for keeping the stats up sir. I've broken them down a bit to include total figures and averages. These stats are for Saints (c/o OPTA and St Etrigan) up to and including round eleven.

I've also put the other offensive categories in this listing as well for ease of reference i.e. tries, try assists, tackle busts, carries/tackle bust, offloads, clean breaks and carries/clean break.

Mikes Stats are interesting one thing that I found was good to compare was that the average for the team is

metre/carry = 6.95
No of tackles made per missed tackle = 13.8
% of missed tackle of tackles attempted = 6.75% (anyone with 93.25% tackling is above average)

- so you can see who is carrying their weight and who isnt.

Flannery 47 tackles v wigan and Graham 196 metres, the positives for me out of that match

How do you obtain the statistics?

Hardwork doing the maths on the Super League site, no doubt

Cut and paste from the Engage SL website into Excel and then just play with the figures to get the game totals using the last games totals and some formulas.

I have added this

[url=http://sthelens.wireddotnet.co.uk/Compare%20all%20games.htmCompare All Games[/url

to the list. Basically it will give you a comparison how well (statistically) Saints have performed for each game compared to all of the others.

Interesting point to note is the perception that Catalan A was a poor defensive performance. Saints missed the least number of tackles for any game this season in that game.
Perhaps it was simply the fact that Catalan were good enough to finish off every chance that they created

Spotted a slight error you have duplicated the Hull and Cas stats

Yeah I noticed that last week - and then proceeded to do bugger all about it



Fixed now
