[QUOTE="Petrichor, post: 769278, member: 73568"] Hi guys! Been reading this forum since the start of the RWC, really interesting discussions and such so decided to join! Congrats to NZ for winning the final. One thing I've seen so much of this world cup is talk about the different 'tiers' in rugby. Obviously, they're just a guideline, but the line between the tiers is becoming increasingly blurred. I was curious as to how you guys rank the different teams. Obviously there is the world rankings, and these are generally accurate, but I thought this might be fun. Basically, you job is to rank all the teams at the RWC from 1 to 20. After a lot of people have ranked, I'll rank the teams by giving 20 pts to the no.1 pick, 19 to no.2 etc down to no.20. We can then divide the teams into different tiers depending on the differences in the points. So without further ado! 1. New Zealand 2. Australia 3. South Africa 4. Argentina 5. Wales 6. Ireland 7. England 8. France 9. Scotland 10. Japan 11. Fiji 12. Italy 13. Georgia 14. Samoa 15. Tonga 16. Romania 17. USA 18. Canada 19. Namibia 20. Uruguay [/QUOTE]
