Ulster Rugby star Gilroy proves elusive in past decade's PRO14 stats

Ulster star Craig Gilroy proved pretty elusive over the past decade.

And there are some stats to prove it.

Gilroy came out on top in some of the 10-year figures produced by OptaJonny, the official Twitter page for Opta's coverage of rugby union and rugby league.

The 28-year-old beat the most defenders (367) and made the most clean breaks (163) of any player in the PRO14 over the past decade.

These figures should prove sweet reading for Gilroy, who recently admitted he is a bit of a stats freak.

The 28-year-old said he regularly pins stats from his matches on the wall to see where he has performed well, and where he needs to improve.
