If you were looking for a statistic to shine in society, you've come to the right place. A few hours before the end of year celebrations, At the time of Rugby fired up the calculators to find the club which has collected the most points in the history of the Top 14. That is to say from the 2005-2006 season to the 2023-2024 season.
A very close podium since the creation of the Top 14
If in terms of titles, it is Stade Toulousain which leads the way with seven shields since the creation of the championship. Is the club from the pink city the one which has garnered the most points since the creation of the championship?
By counting the points accumulated from the 2005-2006 season to the 2023-2024 financial year, the Toulouse residents display 1,471 units. A total which places the club… in first place. But the duel is quite close with a second place collected by Clermont and its 1,400 points. One rank lower, Castres Olympique completes the podium with 1,207 points on the clock.
At the bottom of the box, Stade Français (1,181 points) pays for its irregularity over the last decade while Montpellier (1,174 points), which has always played in the Top 14 since its creation, takes fifth position.

Power of our championship currently, Bordeaux-Bègles (788 points) and La Rochelle (666 points) do not yet display enough seniority to rise to the heights of this “ranking”.
Stronghold of the French elite when it was created, Olympic Biarritz (597 points), titled for the first edition in 2006, seems well behind. Same constant for Perpignan (790 points) which has still been trying to regain its health in the Top 14 for several seasons now.
