Thread: Rugby World Cup 2019

I just randomly saw that other day that if the ABs lose to the Wobblies away and Wales beat England at home then Wales will take the #1 ranking.

Which makes no sense at all.

^ just the way the ranking points system works .... Wales last beat NZ in 1953 and have 30 straight losses since

If Australia does win, Wales could be #1 for just a day if they lose to England on Monday, putting NZ back at #1

Also this weekend:

Argentina v South Africa
Ireland v Italy
England v Wales
USA v Japan
Fiji v Samoa
