You know the ones with the head to head which everyone uses to try and convince everyone else that the player they are bumming is the best player since sliced bread (quality player). For example, the super league site might say that Rob Burrow has had more turds this year than Sean Long, therefore he is a better passer than Long or it might say that Paul Cooke has snorted more coke than Gleeson so Cooke must be a better line breaker than Gleeson.
Anyway I thought I would start it off with some of the common ones:
http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2009&hp1=351&hs2=2009&hp2=1142&stat=metres&season=2009We can see here that Wellens is clearly better than Webb as he has better Stats in virtually every option than Webb.
http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2009&hp1=2162&hs2=2009&hp2=2429&stat=metres&season=2009From this one we can see that Atkins has made more runs from dummy half than Clubb so Atkins must be the more creative player.
You get the idea, it was really annoying on here at the end of last year the way every discussion about any players got dragged down into a 'stato comp'.[/url]
Does the one that says Warrington as a team have only missed one tackle in the two games that they were handed their rs's make those stats b0ll0x
