Video taking off 48x its usual first day

Three words and an ellipsis carry RugbyPass past 100,000 views

The title gives almost nothing away, yet the clip drew close to fifty times the audience a new RugbyPass upload usually gathers on its first day.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 120,888 views a day, 48 times a normal first day on this channel (2,499).

Rugby Respect Moment…Rugby Respect Moment…

Nearly fifty times the norm. That is how fast "Rugby Respect Moment…" started on RugbyPass, the rugby news and video outlet's official channel. Posted on Tuesday, it passed 100,000 views in less than a day.

A fresh RugbyPass video usually opens to a modest crowd of a few thousand, so this one has jumped well clear of the channel's routine. The rest of the channel is running at its ordinary pace. The lift belongs to this single clip.

What the clip actually shows stays a mystery on the page. The title is three words trailing off into an ellipsis, and there is no description naming a match, a team or a player. The response has been quiet in one way: plenty of likes, barely any comments.

Across other sports channels, NRL on Nine is also having a big day, well above its usual level.
