It would be good if someone could develop this page to include British and Irish Lions points (in a separate column) and also to include international caps of all the players featured too.

Rory Underwood's England points total

[edit]

Rory Underwood scored 210 points for England, not 245. Only the last 14 of his 49 international tries were scored after the value of the try was raised to five points, so his points total is made up of 35 4-point tries (140) and 14 5-point tries (70). For a list of his international matches and points, see espnscrum.com

Adding a column to each table showing the active years of a player's international career would make the information on this page more meaningful and help aid with explaining such apparent discrepancies. For example, in the Points scored records table, Rory Underwood played 1984-1996. I don't know how to add a column. Perhaps an editing expert could do that, please, and I'll add the data. Ta very much. KinsaleAnnette (talk) 22:20, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Points records table would also benefit from an list detailing which years what scores systems were used. Cheers. KinsaleAnnette (talk) 22:28, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Years of international duty would make these tables more meaningful

[edit]

Adding a column to each table showing the active years of a player's international career would make the information on this page more meaningful. For example, in the Caps records table, Rochelle (Rocky) Clarke played 2003-2018 and Jason Leonard 1990-2004. I don't know how to add a column. Perhaps an editing expert could do that, please, and I'll add the data. Ta very much. KinsaleAnnette (talk) 22:05, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
