Game Day 3 - Live Scores

Howdy All,

As long as all the scores are correct the WFN World Rankings are as follows:-

Wednesday 17th August 2011.

Australia
Papua New Guinea 53.85 26
New Zealand 53.85 30
Ireland 49.31 35
Nauru 48.72 16
United States 46.95 32
South Africa 45.55 19
Denmark 44.80 38
Great Britain 43.86 40
Samoa 41.85 18
Germany 37.37 10
Sweden 37.23 23
Canada 37.14 32
Japan 35.76 22
China 35.09 8
Israel/Palestine 34.87 8
Finland 29.02 12
India 26.94 8

No movement in ranks in the top 14 today but China, Israel/Palestine and India move out of the provisional ranks and from now on are fully ranked nations. China has entered at No 15, with Israel/Palestine joining at No 16. These two nations have pushed Finland down to 17th and India have joined in at 18th place.

The provisional nations now look like this

Croatia 40.60 4
Tonga 40.35 6
Fiji 40.12 3
France 38.43 4
Iceland 35.64 4
Timor Leste 34.75 3

I guess there will be some champers consumed tonight in the French Camp to celebrate first win at International Footy. Fiji might just get stuck into a bit too.

The results of some of today's games are indicative of the great divide between the top half dozen or so nations and the rest. The Ranking scheme is I think, really starting to reflect the relative differences in standard between the teams from the power teams at the top right thru to the new developing nations at the lower end.

I think we will see a bit more movement after the next round of matches.

Should note that the official name I believe is Peace Team not Israel/Palestine. And it was France's first win at IC footy, and maybe full field footy (?), but they have won some 9s in the past I reckon.

Looks like the French team really hit their straps especially in the last 1/4, will be really interesting to see how they go against Fiji and China.

Could we see a Fiji v France GF in Division 2?? The AFL seeded them 18th. They might just end up ranked about 15th or 16th (WFN Ranks)(France will be fully ranked by tournament end) if they can keep up the form. They weren't disgraced against Tonga either.

Those that were there, were they that good or Timor Leste just not up to it????

France were better, but should take into account that it was wet and cold, which the French were much more used to, plus Timor-Leste copped a number of injuries and basically didn't have a bench.

So it started tight, but got progressively further apart until the French were miles ahead at the end.
