    We know we're not but we have the best record this season, albeit against different and weaker opposition than the ABs

      If the All Blacks beat Tonga do they regain the Number One ranking?

        @sparky probably not because some Nthn hem teams have an extra 2 games...and we get no points for beating Tonga...

        Next week England/Ireland play-if Ireland win, they go #1, we to #3.
        If England win, then it is Wales, NZ, Ireland, England.

        Sept 1 is Wales Vs Ireland in Wales, and if Wales win we are #2, and if they lose, we are #1.

        September 7 . Wales Vs Ireland again, in Dublin.

        Assuming Wales win at home, and Ireland win at home, we will be back at number 1.
        If Wales win twice they will be 91.00 to our 89.4
        If Wales lose twice to Ireland, Ireland will be 89.83 to NZ 89.4
        If both teams win away but lose at home Wales & NZ tie on 89.4

              Less than 2 minutes played, and Alivereti Raka scores his first try in the French jersey. Raka is France's Sevu Reece.

                Turned sky back on this week for the cricket. But here I am on Sunday morning watching Scotland v France in rugby, and a bit bored by it all. I need to keep my powder dry for RWC rugbyfest.

                  Scotland were very poor. On their heels in defence and didn’t really attack the breakdown.

                  French enigma continues.

                            Almost reminds me of that Namibian joker who went for the fancy dive in a game at RWC 87 and farked his shoulder

                              Scotland were absolutely terrible and France looked decent enough.

                              I don’t even think it would be an upset if japan beat Scotland. They’re currently 7th and 9th although France may now be 7th and Scotland 8th.

                              I think Argentina won’t get out of their pool with England and France advancing.

                                Not a classic but we've gone from shithouse to penthouse.

                                England looked bereft.

                                        I agree and thought it was a harsh yellow card too. The French refs and their fondness for dishing out cards are a concern with the RWC imminient.
