Another miserable day for the english; after their loss in the cricket world cup final and upcoming loss in the ashes.

New Zealand not top anymore?

Thought they were untouchable at rugby

Nice one Richie. I can't recall seeing a thread last week after Wales, the world number 1 were humiliated 33-19 by pitiful England. Still, I really hope your namesake makes it back to the main pdc. Great player treated shabbily by the governing body.

the world rankings are very false, wales arent even top 4, NZ, SA, England, Ireland, def all better than wales and maybe even aus

Another abhorrent Nationalist thread just reading between the lines mush.

I wouldn't put us in the top 4, grant

But I wouldn't put Wales top either LaughLaugh

1. NZ
2. Aus
3. SA
4. Arg
5. Ireland
6. Wales
7. England

All very close from 2 to 7 though, we are capable of beating say Aus on our day, just lack consistency

one things for sure; if they lose Billy Vuni to injury, they may as well stay at home. It beggars belief to me that he is being risked playing in this warm up ofcharades

Thought NZ were on the wain after recent draw wiv SA and last weeks defeat against Australia- admittedly down to 14 men for most of game - but they were back to their sublime best yday in rematch - obvs i know but will be extremely hard to beat again in a few weeks time

We shall see in the world cup, HGS

The top 4 were the semi finalists at the last world cup albeit 2 of the quarter finals were very tight and Scotland probably should have beat Australia SurprisedSurprisedSurprised

Argentina are very competitive nowadays

They hold their own in the Rugby Championship at least

If someone offered me evens for Ireland to beat Argentina I'd sell my house, my car and my granny to get on!

Ireland would lose to Argentina in a high pressure world cup game in my opinion

Ireland always bottle it in the big world cup games

I'm not dismissing Argentina. Very good side now. But 4th in the world??

Maybe its a little high but in the world cup I think we'll see them outperform the 5th and 6th in that table

I think we're likely to suffer in the groups again

The 8th best team France will edge us out Tongue Out

Yes me too Baphornet, I'm really looking forward to it as well. Rugby Union was my game growing up and after I left College, I was a hooker so was always in the thick of things.

Probably more enjoyable than the footy world cup in my opinion

Always enjoy the laughs with the Welsh/Irish/Scots fans, and the Aussies are good humoured as well

I agree with you SS, give me rugby union over football every time, I like rugby league as well.

The fans just seem more laid back, and just enjoy the banter and the event itself
