Newest first, from Biarritz Olympique's own point of view. Home and away are as the record stores them; a fixture the record does not mark neutral is listed as one side's home, which is right for a league round and wrong for a final played at a third ground.
Biggest win: 37-9 v Brive
Heaviest defeat: 7-80 v Stade Toulousain

Box is the middle half of the ranked field, line is the median, dot is Biarritz Olympique. The scale is this domain's own and does not compare across the two.
Teams that play alike sit close together. The two axes hold 68% of the variation between teams. Component 1 (45%) rises with more average margin and win rate. Component 2 (23%) rises with more high-scoring matches, less close matches.
58 of 82 teams sit too close together to name without covering another team's point, so they are drawn unlabelled. Every dot is still a link to that team, and its name is in the tooltip.
