How good are our hookers? (Not a Bernie joke)

[Poupou Escobar]

So I've been involved in a respectful and intellectual discussion on a different Parramatta Eels forum, and I compiled some stats comparing King, Kritchard and Cameron Smith. I repost them here for your arguing pleasure. Obviously some are of less use than others, but I include them here because one of you idiots is bound to ask for them otherwise. No requests:

[I'm a loser baby...]

Just tell us what they mean ffs!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

What do I look like, some kind of analyst?!?

 

[Noise]

Just as I thought, Pritchard is not much of kicker.

And I'd like to see the tries per minute stats for each

Can we see his stats as well?

 

[Bazal]

How good are they at the lineout?

You should probably ask David Middleton. I believe he has a calculator.

If you want.

I hope so. I'm starting to lose faith in Hindy's power rankings.

 

[Gazzamatta]

So its pretty obvious.
1st Smith
2nd King
3rd Prichard.

Thanks Poo. You proved to the numbnuts what I already knew.
Cheers mate.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Way too many decimal points.

 

[Gronk]

Today in Barcelona. La Pau.

 

[Gary Gutful]

I wondered where Fanbase was.

I don't think King vs Kritchard is so cut and dried. King is better in a couple of areas and is probably a better dummy half. But Kritchard is a better all round player, including in defence. I can see why Arthur's prefers him.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

wonder if there is a first contact stat for defence

 

[Joshuatheeel]

those mins per game stats don't seem to be correct for smith (could be wrong). Does he really average 76 mins a game ? Does not seem right, as most games he has come of the bench.

Are you watching Arrival too?

 

[IFR33K]

Bwahahahahaahahaha

They just wanted to do a deal that would help us both, and we let our fear get the best of us, like always. For shame.

Those are stats for Cameron Smith. I just included them as a baseline.
