Statistics - Super 14, Week 9
We give some statistics from Roun Nine of the Super 14, including some totals from the nine rounds which enable you to see who has scored most tries, who has concexcded the most penalties and free kicks and who has the worst disciplinary record.
Sanctions
There were yellow cards again. The Bulls managed their weekly sanction to add to their disgraceful collection. They were getting hammered and have been roundly criticised for lack of commitment, but still managed a yellow card for an early tackle. They had problems tackling opponents with the ball and so settled for somebody who did not have it.
Mind you at one stage their opponents were down to 13 men – not that that put them in danger of losing.
The yellow cards this week went to Rayno Benjamin, Alfi Mafi, Conrad Smith, Jerry Collins and Wynand Olivier.
The one against Benjamin was astonishing. What he did is legal and laudable in the Northern Hemispshere and in the south earned him a yellow card (and contributed to the destruction of his team). It was a spntaneous act, not a malicious one.
Smith was involved in two yellow cards – one where he sinned and one where he was sinned against.
