Behind the sophistry, what they define as a winning moment is essentially subjective.

Their system looks nice but it is no more scientific than a MOTM poll on the Fern.

@sparky Probably less so given we ferners are all rugby experts!

It seems they have misunderstood the meaning of "transparent".

You don't think the meaning is clear?

I thought it looked okay for a minute, then I saw they rated Maro Itoje as the second best player in the world. 👎

Who?

Oh, and try finding Matt Todd among the openside flankers ...

He's also ranked 13th in the Rugby Championship despite not playing in the RC.

Yep, the more I read around it the less sense it makes. The ratings seem to make no sense as @antipodean's comparison of the two number 8s shows. The second one, whose name we're not allowed to mention anymore has higher ratings of the 4 ratings they show than nearly every one of the 12 rated ahead of him. (At least we now know the formula for how Hansen makes his No.8 selectorial decisions ).

@rocky-rockbottom 78/top 100 from same country

BBBR has a great record. Dublin was only his 4th loss.
