Here is the ranking explained.

Cloete · 29-09-2003, 10:07 PM

wtf! i'm not even going to bother looking at how they are ranked. if they think Georgia are better than Uruguay then i think they're sadly mistaken. i didn't even know georgia played rugby till this year. Uruguay have been around for a while and qualified for WC 99. I think u'll find u'll see a better match between Uruguay and Samoa and Georgia will be lucky if they don't get beaten by more than 50 against Samoa :P. Bloody IRB :P

nibbs · 30-09-2003, 05:24 AM

I'm going to no games. Why, because of John O.Neil, thats why. Stupid Australian :!(

marc71178 · 30-09-2003, 04:01 PM

Interesting how despite the Ireland ranking, nobody expects them to do anything.

why should NZ get games when Australia can easily host all of them? it's Australia's Worlc Cup. so New Zealander's who think they deserve games can go and stick it as far as i'm concerned (nothing personal to you of course Nibs). Because WE were chosen to host this World Cup not you guys! sure u mite say they've been shared in the past, but why should we?? thre's no reason for us to shar eany games so u guys can wait for ur own WC as far as i'm concerned.

age_master · 30-09-2003, 06:13 PM

im not going to any games cause of the damned HSC

Paid The Umpire · 30-09-2003, 08:35 PM

i think it is beacuase Ireland hasn't won in Aus for a long time.

Simon · 01-10-2003, 03:38 AM

Simon · 01-10-2003, 11:48 PM

Just got my tickets today

we havent got really good seats, but canberra stadium is realy good their arent any bad seats for seeing the game.
I am really getting pumped for this now, looking at the rankings i could see some close games seeing as though the 10th, 12th and 13th ranked sides are here.

Im also glad to see these sides that might score some tries, rather than a penalty goal shoot out between Louis Koen and Jonny Wilkinson.
