The rest of the posters watching us three discuss and debate the usefullness of stats.

Can I be in the StatHead Club?

Interesting how impressive the stats are for Scotland but they haven't managed to win a game.

By contrast England have lost one but they have relatively few players on any of the lists.

What does this mean? Probably nothing but it does suggest that England are able to grind out victories without playing well whereas Scotland are playing well but not able to win games.

Pretty impressive attacking stats from Wales.

Only the full back in most metres made, no players in most carries or in defenders beaten and the only player with more than one try got both of his from charge downs. Sums up the English attack nicely...

At least Croft is in mighty form at the lineout (check out the lineout steals compared to the rest) and Robshaw is tackling like a deamon (55 made and 1 miss).

Scotlands stats are really encouraging, just a bit of luck and a killer instinct and the it could be so different. It also shows the Scottish pack is certainly doing it's job (no scrum stats however might change that view), the backs need a cutting edge.

oh, and Faletau is everywhere!!!! how old? can only get better.

Wouldn't mind seeing one on turnovers affected, penalties conceeded and scrum stats, maybe linebreaks too
