Barba vs Boyd

Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion

Barba scored 10 tries in 17 games, Boyd 11 in 26...

These are the current try scoring career stats of the most prominent fullbacks in the NRL:

Name
PldTTries p/game
Sam Tomkins175
1570.90
Brett Stewart2001460.73
Ben Barba122800.66
Billy Slater2701700.63
Greg Inglis1991220.61
Jarryd Hayne1761030.59
Lachlan Coote83430.52
Anthony Milford42210.50
James Tedesco28140.50
Anthony Minichiello3011370.46
Michael Gordon154690.45
Josh Dugan98420.43
Sam Perrett204700.34
William Zillman145480.33
Michael Morgan56180.32
Josh Hoffman109330.30
Darius Boyd204610.30
Matt Moylan38110.29

While Ben Barba has a healthy average of 0.66 tries per game played, making him third. He would be second if Tomkins stats weren't inflated by his ESL time. (he would be 7th in the NRL with 0.54)

Darius Boyd career average of 0.3 manages to be worse than Zillman, Hoffman and Morgan... :laugh:

Matt Moylan is the odd one out, but I'm sure he'll correct that soon enough.

I think I said 2013, did I not ? According to stats.rleague.com Darius Boyd scored 11 and Barba 10. No lies there and I will accept your apology when it is offered.

Those stats are backed up by rugbyleagueproject.org....Boyd 11 Barba 10

That was over 26 rounds..the length of the regular season so I have no idea what AP is on about...just like him lol

Here's the best bit though ! Of the players who ran on as fullback, the top four were Qlders Slater first with 18 Inglis second with 14 Boyd third with 11 and finally Barba with 10. So much for Barba being superior in 2013. Now, time to man up and admit you were wrong AP !

The lenght of the regular season is 24 games, as 2 are byes. Those stats include 2 finals games, in which Boyd scored 1 try.

You know those ratings are flawed Porthoz, they don't take into account households with two televisions... and other things of that nature!

Seriously though, that's surprising. I thought Boyd would be much higher.

The point is this Porthoz.....AP made false claims in support of his point of view. He claimed Barba whilst injured in 2013 and suffering off field dramas was still better than Boyd and scored more tries than anyone in the Broncos ( false ) and most in the competition ( true if all players who played that year are considered ) 2013 is the only year being debated and at best Barba and Boyd while playing the same position scored the same amount of tries. I claimed Boyd scored 11 to Barbas 10 in 2013 but I did not remark on it being in the regular season rather saying it was in 2013. A desperate AP was trying to still be right when obviously wrong.

Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion

Lol Huge.

You compare regular season to regular season because not everyone plays finals football, and then not everyone who does plays the same amount of finals games. Its the only fair way to compare try stats.

So in 6 less games barba scored the same number of tries as Boyd. Boyd did not score more tries than barba, therefore you are a huge dishonest liar who makes things up to suit his agenda. Liar liar liar who wont admit hes wrong. Go on, admit it liar.

There aren't 26 matches per team in the regular season like you said, you are wrong and a liar. Why do you keep telling these outrageous lies?! Ive seen some big lies in my time but yours are the worst. Absolutely enormous lies, I definitely cant let these go without harping on about them for pages!!!

Don't worry AP, one of these days you will have an epiphany after which you will realise it's actually okay to be wrong about something. You were almost there when you referred to your obvious misrepresentations as an 'off the cuff' claim. Not quite but nearly there. An admission of sorts.

Just on those stats I notice that Barba missed quite a few more tackles than Boyd, in fact he seemed to miss more than one a game. Boyd only missed 13 over the season of 26 games played by himself making it around one missed tackle per two games played. I guess you have to admit that Boyd is a much superior defender, at least twice as good !! Also, you were the one who said Barba was better in 2013 and at no stage did you say it was only the regular season, I merely disagreed. If you want to convey a thought, try and be specific !

This just proves they are both pretty handy players with strengths in different areas
 
Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion

Actually, it seems to prove that Boyd is far superior in almost every area. Areas where they are similar were tackle breaks and errors. Even that favours Boyd given that he played 6 more games but still only had 16 errors ,the same as Barba in 6 fewer games. Also roughly similar was line breaks although Barba shaded Boyd there although that is just about the only place. Off loads did favour Barba by quite a margin but after that it is all Boyd.

Boyd made more than double the tackles and closer to triple ! 43 to 110 !
Boyd made more than double the metres ....3184 to 1447 !
Boyd made almost double the runs at 310 to 160.... Strong work ethics there !
Boyd had double the try assists at 11 to 5... More teamwork there !

What the stats prove was that Boyd had a vastly superior season to Barba. I didn't invent that, there is no lie

You weren't wrong though, you were telling lies. Liar! OMG I can't believe how much of a liar you are. You STILL haven't addressed the fact that you said there were 26 games in a regular season when there are clearly only 24!! What outrageous lies! I feel like everything that comes out of your mouth are lies.
 
Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion

Ok, that's enough from the both of you.

Argue your opinion, argue facts, but if I see either calling the other liar or taking things personal again, you'll be both thread banned.
 
Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion

Why even argue about Boyd vs Barba ... I think most of us that don't want Boyd or think he is surplus to requirements, are calling for Milford to be played at fullback
 
Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion

AP and Huge need to get a room and hug it out.
