Now I'm no quant, but in order to make the analysis more thorough, you'd need to make a few tweaks.
Firstly, you'd have to do something like lopping off each guys best and worst runs as, especially the best, will skew their stats.
Next you'd have to weight every single run against certain factors like which slice of the game it occurred in (ie opening 20 against the oppositions best pack who are fresh, etc) and how many of the oppositions best forwards are out there and also how long they've been out there against how long our forward has been out there. Or whatever. Like I said, I'm no quant so find the correlations and whatever and then work out what I guess their "advanced" metres are or something of that nature.
Otherwise you just extrapolate their base numbers and it doesn't really tell the whole truth.
