The Top 14 regular season has concluded. The play-off’s begin this coming Saturday. They come with Oyonnax having been relegated, Vannes promoted from the Pro D2 and Montpellier preparing to face Grenoble in the access match.

The individual totals for the regular season reveal that two Pumas were placed among the best point scorers. Domingo Miotti scored 164 points for Oyonnax and Benjamín Urdapilleta scored 131 points for Clermont. This made them the 5th and 10th best scorers overall for the 2023-2024 Top 14 season.

Neither Miotti nor Urdapilleta featured for Argentina at Rugby World Cup 2023. They were also absent from Felipe Contepomi’s first training roster. Contepomi’s roster for the 2024 July Internationals is forthcoming.
