The objective of the present study was to analyze the differences in rugby game statistics between winning and losing teams. The data from 58 games of round robin play from the Six Nations tournament from the 2003-2006 seasons were analyzed. The groups of variables studied were: number of points scored, way in which the points were scored; way teams obtained the ball and how the team used it; and technical and tactical aspects of the game. A univariate (t-test) and multivariate (discriminant) analysis of data was done. Winning teams had average values that were significantly higher in points scored, conversions, successful drops, mauls won, line breaks, possessions kicked, tackles completed, and turnovers won. Losing teams had significantly higher averages for the variables scrums lost and line-outs lost. The results showed that: a) in the phases of obtaining the ball and more specifically in scrummage and line-out, winning teams lose fewer balls than losing teams (winning teams have an efficacy of 90% in both actions); b) the winning team tends to play more with their feet when they obtain the ball, to utilize the maul as a way of attacking, and to break the defensive line more often than the losing team does; and c) On defence, winning teams recovered more balls and completed more tackles than losing teams, and the percentage of tackles completed by winning teams was 94%. The value presented could be used as a reference for practice and competition in peak performance teams. Key pointsThis paper increases the knowledge about rugby match analysis.Give normative values to establish practice and match goals.Give applications ideas to connect research with coaches practice.
本研究的目的是分析在六国赛（2003-2006 赛季）循环赛中，胜队和负队在橄榄球比赛数据上的差异。分析了 58 场比赛的数据。研究的变量组包括：得分、得分方式、球队获得球的方式以及球队如何使用球；以及比赛的技术和战术方面。对数据进行了单变量（t 检验）和多变量（判别）分析。胜队的平均得分、转换得分、成功达阵、赢得争边球、突破防线、控球、完成铲球和赢得争球都明显更高。负队在失去 scrums 和 lost line-outs 方面的平均值明显更高。结果表明：a）在获得球的阶段，特别是在 scrummage 和 line-out 中，胜队比负队失去的球更少（胜队在这两个动作中的效率都达到 90%）；b）胜队在获得球时更倾向于用脚踢球，利用 maul 作为进攻方式，更频繁地突破防守线，而负队则不是这样；c）在防守方面，胜队比负队夺回更多的球并完成更多的铲球，胜队完成铲球的百分比为 94%。提出的数值可以作为表现最佳球队的实践和比赛的参考。关键点本文增加了对橄榄球比赛分析的了解。为实践和比赛目标提供规范值。为将研究与教练实践联系起来提供应用思路。
