Eight runs in ten finished between 1 Vannes and 35 Edinburgh, half of them between 3 Edinburgh and 23 Edinburgh, with the middle run at 11 Edinburgh.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 32 and 74 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 26-15 on a tight afternoon and 37-26 on an open one.
