[QUOTE="User1245, post: 917705, member: 40986"] Yeah I can see that. If you read the post before that I was using it to provide further clarity to Derpus. Dunno about the empirical argument. Since TRC was formed in 2012 NZ have won it 6/7 times and Argentina have been last 6/7 times. I have a feeling next year will be the same, with SA and Aus deciding who's 2nd and 3rd. And probably the same the year after that. I actually enjoyed this TRC, mainly because of the what is hopefully the re-establishment of the rivalry between the Boks and the All Blacks. However the tournament as a whole is not in a good place when the final standings table is a copy and paste from the year before and will probably be the same the year after. Edit: Some stats TRC Average attendance in 2012 = 45627 TRC Average attendance in 2017 = 30610 NZ win % in TN (1996-2011) = 69% NZ win % in TRC (2012-2018) = 90% [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rugby_Championship[/URL] [/QUOTE]
