Stats: Super 15, Week 18

This is it - the last round of the first Super 15. And we bring you some stats from the round and also some totals which include the previous 17 rounds.

It has been a marathon. Being the last weeks the totals will tell you all the mosts and leasts - tries, penalties, cards, and so on, which may cause some surprises, for example who scored the most tries of the South African teams? You can see who has the worst and who the best disciplinary records.

There have been some suggestions of bias by referees. A glance at the stats may make that hard to justify.

Results, Round 18

The Force, the Reds, the Sharks and the Stormers won away matches, and the Crusaders won their home match at the Hurricanes' ground.

Blues vs Highlanders, 33-16
Force vs Rebels, 27-24
Reds vs Chiefs, 19-11
Crusaders vs Hurricanes, 16-9
Waratahs vs Brumbies, 41-7
Sharks vs Bulls, 26-23
Stormers vs Cheetahs, 44-34

These results determined that the Reds and the Stormers would go straight through to semifinals and would play them each at home. Then the Crusaders, the Blues, the Waratahs and the Sharks would play off for a place in the semis.

Ball in Play Time

Jan Taljaard has again provided these meticulous statistics.

The average playing time for such matches is just over 33 minutes.

(The referee's name is in brackets.)

Blues vs Highlanders (Bryce Lawrence):
16 minutes 26 seconds + 16 minutes 15 seconds = 32 minutes 41 seconds

Rebels vs Western Force (Williamson):
18 minutes 44 seconds + 16 minutes 56 seconds = 35 minutes 40 seconds

Chiefs vs Reds (Brown):
16 minutes 57 seconds + 18 minutes 46 seconds = 35 minutes 43 seconds

Crusaders vs Hurricanes (Pollock):
17 minutes 4 seconds + 18 minutes 31 seconds = 35 minutes 35 seconds

Waratahs vs Brumbies (Joubert):
20 minutes 57 seconds + 20 minutes 10 seconds = 41 minutes 7 seconds

Bulls vs Sharks (Kaplan):
18 minutes 34 seconds + 15 minutes 35 seconds = 34 minutes 9 seconds

Cheetahs vs Stormers (Jonker):
14 minutes 14 seconds + 15 minutes 6 seconds = 29 minutes 20 seconds
