All Blacks vs France: The Data Reveals NZ’s Biggest Weakness

All Blacks vs France is always a massive fixture, but when you map out the raw data from Super Rugby and the Top 14, a massive tactical mismatch comes to light. In this deep dive, we break down both squads player-by-player across 9 unique data charts, covering everything from Carrier DNA to breakdown dominance, fly-half threat, and lineout steals.
