The BBC has 6N stuff if you look for it a bit.

The old Planet Rugby stat was fantastic. I'm sure many a poster in here has
used them to back up various arguments. Then they changed it to the
absolutely useless format it is now. It is impossible to find anything on
there.
Scrum.com does have a similar search feature but it doesn't have all the the
results. eg I did a search for NZ vs all teams for 2004 and it missed a
couple of the 3N games.
I haven't been able to find any reliable source of historical data and so
now have to rely on my flakey memory.

If you are interested in any All Black game, the only website you should be
using is www.rugbymuseum.co.­nz

Yes, that would be just plain fucking stupidity. Planet Rugby are
clearly intent on minimising their client base.

There was a thread on this a few months back. Perhaps you could Google it.

IRB www.irb.com/ do a database of sorts.

I agree - they've all become extremely crap. I'm considering giving
up maintaining the RSRU tables and ladder I started a couple of years
ago as a bit of whimsy as I can no longer be sure I actually know of
all the games that have taken part - for example the IRB site shows
that there were two games in the "IRB Super Cup" on 25 May and another
two yesterday, but doesn't say where they were played (I'm guessing
Tokyo), and they don't appear on Planet Rugby or Scrum.com...

Try this one:

It's good for results but not for player stats.

Your site is ok but I'd prefer not to download everything every time.
Just the most recent articles would be nice. Also the time of posting is
apparent but not the date, unless you read the entire article. Quite
annoying that.
YOU on the other hand are more annoying and a fuckwit SPAMMER. We got
your first post thanks. Hijacking non related threads as an excuse to
promote your site is a guaranteed way to make sure I will never look at
your site again.

Got you now, the same for me. Whenever I've looked for a particular
game it's been there, so I hadn't noticed how dire it is.
