People rightly focusing on T2 nations being shut out - criminal I will also add that T1 test rugby is about to get very stale very quickly, if you are playing just 11 teams once a year, every year, forever - thats boring.

Teams who beat the a team ranked above them when the world cup started during the pool stages #WAL x2 (Fiji & Australia) #POR (Fiji) #JPN (Samoa) #ENG (Argentina) Like it or not, Wales topping the pool with 19/20 points is an upset.

So it comes down to a choice: Which is best, Top14 or URC? If youโ€™re offering me an all expenses paid trip to a match in either league, iโ€™m choosing a Top14 match. Huge clubs and great events HOWEVER, if weโ€™re talking quality of rugby, as per the dataโ€ฆ URC = Best League ๐Ÿ˜‰

Sky Sports introduced the points over cumulative seasons stat so that they could make Jenson Button seem more accomplished than he actually was. The fact they introduced him as โ€œthe only man to beat Lewis Hamilton over the course of their time as teammatesโ€ is bad enough..
