howcome the stats are so vastly different to that posted on other stats sites?
i find it very hard to understand how the stats accredited to the players on this site can be so vastly different from stats posted by other stats sites for example RugbyStats.com.
you can look at any player and the stats will almost never correspond 100% to what is posted by other sites. cobus reinach this past weekend made 2 line breaks and 3 turnovers. yet testrugby accredited him with 0 and 0. yes zeeerrrroooo for each.
is there really a valid reason why testrugby.com is not prepared to compare their match stats with recognised stats posted on various other sites??? at the end of the day we all just want a fair reflection of a player's abilities and form in any particular game, and not just the opinion of someone who is supposed to allocate a score for that player who can be biased towards particular players or teams!
the player of this past weekend is kade poki, testrugby gives him a cool 620 points. well the 3 tries he scored is hard to get wrong but what about the line breaks and go forwards? testrugby gave 1 line break, 12 go forwards, 0 turnovers, and 1 tackle. rugbystats.com shows 3 line breaks and only 5 mauls with 2 turnovers and 0 tackles.
clearly both sites can't be right. so which one is it?? can we please have clarity around who, and how these stats are derived??
i think i speak for everyone playing this game when i ask for consistancy in the scoring stats please. otherwise we will end up all picking the same players seeing that the scorers show a certain bias towards them and they will score freely each week irrespective of form or flair on the day.
