Statistics - Super 14, Week 8
Believe it or not but we are into the second half of the Super 14 for 2010 and it had its surprises as the Bulls and the Stormers tumbled, and the Bulls, so squeaky clean till now, fell foul of the law. See how it affects their overall standing in the disciplinary stakes. See which team has scored and which team has conceded most tries, which team has been penalised most often. We shall also this week look at the effects of home and away in penalty awards.
