S14 - Week 6, Part 2
Stats
Here we give stats concerning getting possession, mainly at scrums and line-outs.
There is one rare free kick, proving the species is not extinct – a free kick against the Highlanders for putting the ball into a scrum skew. It was the only one in six Super 14 matches and three Six Nations matches! There is much to be said for the honesty of the modern scrumhalf, and we have statistics to prove it.
We have had help from Soundsure with its excellent statistics geared to reportage on the refereeing of the matches has made our statistics easier to gather and more comprehensive.
The total of penalties, free kicks, line-outs, scrums, including resets, and drop-outs makes up stoppages.
