Rugby career statistics

Rugby career statistics measure a player’s performance, including total games played (appearances), points scored (through tries, conversions, penalties), and categories like tackles, carries, and lineouts won. These numbers help assess skill, consistency, and impact on matches. For example, a high number of tries indicates scoring ability, while many tackles reflect defensive contribution. Statistics also track disciplinary records like yellow or red cards. Overall, they provide a quantitative view of a player’s contributions, complementing qualitative assessments to understand their role and effectiveness on the field.
