Japan's Pacific Nations Cup title and a wild Wallabies-Springboks finish
World Rugby split six uploads between the Brave Blossoms' win over Fiji in Osaka and Australia's Test against South Africa.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
HISTORIC ENDING in Osaka 🔥 | Dramatic Final Minutes | Fiji v Japan | Asahi Pacific Nations Cup
Two matches, six uploads, and both games come with the word ending in their titles. World Rugby's week opened in Osaka, where Japan, the Brave Blossoms of the full-match replay, beat Fiji to take the Asahi Pacific Nations Cup. The replay, the dramatic final minutes and a compilation of "the tries behind the title" followed. The final-minutes clip is the most watched of the six so far.
Then the channel turned to Australia against South Africa, a Wallabies-Springboks Test it streamed live and then cut into highlights billed as a modern-day classic. The last cut, pitched as "The Most Crazy Ending You Will EVER See!", went up on Sunday and now carries the most momentum on the channel. It picks up views faster than the livestream or the highlights, despite having the smallest total of the three.
For scale, a usual day brings the whole catalog close to 200,000 views, so these new clips are a small slice of it. The subscriber count did not move during the week. Around World Rugby, the bigger sports channels were mostly quiet, with Chess.com, New Zealand Cricket and Sports TV all below their usual pace. World Rugby itself sits third by subscribers in that group.
