Resource Weekly stats from the paper - 2016 Season

[SJ]

Unfortunately, the claims of "meaningless" often come not when stats are not used in context, but when they are used in context but unhelpful to an argument.

Agreed.

But clubs get to see a lot more than we can.

They see pressure acts within the context of types of play, rather than just a game-wise tally per player (which doesn't mean a whole lot).

Indeed. I have looked at PAs in a number of different ways (earlier in this thread actually) and they are still one of the most confounding in terms of meaning from a layperson's perspective IMO.

All of the numbers they do publish can be broken down further. But we can only use what we have.

I gave up trying to understand it we just don't get enough context to make sense of it from numbers alone. Too often the same pressure stat numbers can mean completely different things

There are clear patterns. Teams that win more of the ball have fewer PAs (makes sense). Some players (e.g. Blicavs) are clearly either excellent at applying pressure or given a role to focus on it. It is not without use to a layperson but I find it the most difficult of all available stats to usefully interpret.

And have the capacity to apply real meaning to them.
