Frequently asked questions
What is a good kicking percentage in rugby?
75%+ is solid at club level; 80%+ is international standard. The position matters — kicks from directly in front are more successful than wide-angle kicks. Elite kickers approaching 90% are rare and extremely valuable.
Does kicking percentage matter more than overall points scored?
Both matter, but kicking percentage is often the better indicator of a kicker's individual reliability, since a kicker could rack up a high points total simply by taking more attempts — a kicker converting 90% of 5 attempts is statistically more dependable than one converting 60% of 10.
