A few more for stats for you all from the official SL Website.
I HAVE NOT made these figures up you can find them on the offical SL site. Just click on Stats if you want confirmation.
You may spot a trend I hope this proves my point.
When you consider most Prop Forwards spend a maximum of 60 minutes on the pitch.
It proves my point even more. I'm not saying they don't work hard or anything. But the stats I've just written out prove that Prop Forwards get do get a lot of free yards simply because of being at first receiver & the 10m rule at the PTB.
I've selected 3 SL seasons.
Ther are gaps in between some of the table position because I wasn't sure what position on the field they play in.
Player name. metres gained. Position in table brackets & playing position is also identified.
