The Rugby Championship Team of Round 4 is out and while there are some familiar faces, there are also some new ones. Do you agree with the statistics which saw Israel Dagg named player of the round?
Israel Dagg was the best player in The Rugby Championship Round 4 - do you agree with the www.testrugby.com statistics?
Israel Dagg dominated the points in the Rugby Championship Team of Round 4 scoring a whopping 445 points, easily ahead of his rivals.
Other points of interest in the Team of the Round is the poor performances of starting fly halves including Aaron Cruden, Morne Steyn and Juan Martin Hernandez who didn't even crack the 200 points. Aaron Smith came off the bench and despite playing 40 minutes and missing a tackle on Bryan Habana still made the team.
There are only four New Zealand All Blacks in the Team of the Round, while there are more Wallabies and Pumas than usually make this side potentially because it was the more flowing game of the weekend and the goal kickers didn't miss as many shots at goal.
There are some interesting names in the Rugby Championship Team of Round 4 including Radike Samo, Juan Manuel Leguizamon, Pat McCabe and Patricio Albacete.
