Eight runs in ten finished between 5 Zebre and 30 Scarlets, half of them between 1 Scarlets and 19 Scarlets, with the middle run at 9 Scarlets.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 28 and 66 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 23-14 on a tight afternoon and 33-24 on an open one.
