Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 3280575, member: 1992"] I agree, stats can be misleading. I'd point out that they can also be extremely revealing too. I mean I hear that a lot on here, posters saying the stats don't tell the whole story and they are absolutely right. That said, any stats that don't suit a narrative are outright rejected especially if it's concerning a disliked player. On here someone like Boyd or Isaako could have 5 try assists, 6 linebreaks, 37 tackles with no misses, zero errors and two tries and run for 195 metres and still posters would either say nothing or say, player x was 'okay'. People simply do not want to acknowledge anything good about a despised player and will intensely focus on any error, no matter how trivial. Stats are important and can be both misleading and highly informative. Rejecting a stat purely based on malice is puerile. [/QUOTE]
