Eight runs in ten finished between 10 Toulon and 27 Munster, half of them between 2 Toulon and 16 Munster, with the middle run at 6 Munster.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 31 and 71 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 22-16 on a tight afternoon and 33-27 on an open one.
