Thank you. I aim to please.

Only playing fella, although I do wonder where these weird and wonderful stats come from? Do you compile them yourself?

I know.

These were all my own work on re-viewing the match on Sky.

Not sure where they sit with the Leeds Buderus - good, Leeds Diskin - bad or first half - good, second half - bad factions on here though.

There just looks to be too many being committed throughout the eighty minutes and it's a recurring theme.

1st Half: 2 - Penalties, 5 Knock Ons, 1 - Pass To Opposition, 1 Forward Pass, 1 Kick Out On The Full

= 10 Errors in Total

2nd Half: 4 - Penalties, 5 Knock Ons, 1 - Pass In To Touch, 1 Forward Pass, 2 Kicks Out On The Full, 1 Tackled Into Touch.

= 13 Errors in Total

Timings of errors:

1st Half - 1, 5, 6, 14, 20, 23, 25, 29, 36, 39

2nd Half - 40, 45, 52, 55, 58, 58, 61, 63, 66, 71, 73, 77, 78

I make that 14 errors in the second half, not 13.

So do I (and so do the timings) so can the imaginary 2nd half forward pass and pretend I never mentioned it.

Some games this year McGuire has been praised for playing his best ever rugby and being "the complete stand off", now he's the reason why Leeds didn't play well.

What were the statistics for metres made by the two Leeds hookers?

How do stats quantify quality of distribution? The kind Jamie Peacock talks about him his book as being of vital importance for any forward making a hit up?

I presume you're after Buderus and Diskin. What follows will be the raw data from Opta at the SL Website which obviously will be a total figure regardless of time spent on the field or position played during that time.

Danny Buderus: 117 metres (17 Carries (Avg 6.88 )), 1 Try Assist (Burrow), 19 Tackles (1 Missed Tackle), 1 Error, 1 Penalty Conceded.

Matt Diskin: 64 metres (12 Carries (Avg 5.33)), 12 Tackles (0 Missed Tackle), 0 Error, 0 Penalty Conceded.

They don't.
