Years with an * indicate that individual stats are currently available as a link in Word or PDF format on the page for each year. From 1930-40 and 1945-49, the only stats available are the East (Big Four / IRFU) scoring leaders. The IRFU suspended play for 4 years from 1941-44. Stats from 1950-53 include the East scoring stats and more complete stats from the West (WIFU). Starting in 1954, complete stats are available for both the East and West though some stat categories were not tracked until much later (e.g. sacks in 1981 and tackles in 1987).
