In the above table you can see how the points distributed on base of win, lost or draw in the six nations fixtures. Last year the team of Wales win all of their matches and earned three bonus points and extra six nations prize money bonus upto (£1 million) to remain undefeated in the tournament.
In case if a team lost match and win all four other fixtures they still earn (2 points) and with four wins they can earn maximum points upto 22 pts at the end of the tournament. If teams in points table have same points then team with better points wins the championship. Somehow if the teams on tiebreaker won’t decided than teams scored most tries in the tournament ranked higher.
