World Footy Rank = money + home games

Having said that, I think it currently provides a reasonable indication of where teams are in relative strength. You can make a very strong argument that the top 3 are right, then Ireland are always about the mark, Nauru were very impressive at the last IC, the US have always been one of the stronger nations without quite threatening for the top 3 spots, and South Africa did really well at the last IC but are coming from a long way down.

Next comes Denmark, Samoa and Great Britain and they are a mixed bag, with Samoa's best often very good with talented aggressive athletes, and their worst some mis-directed aggressive footy with a much more of a Rugby look to it. Denmark have had some impressive international form and some disappointments. GB have been more consistent but can only be judged by their form on the field, which slipped a bit at EC2010.

As I said, Canada is probably a bit low due to the number of losses to the US. Sweden had some good recent form, and that just leaves Germany, Japan and Finland. Maybe their order could shuffle a bit amongst themselves but I don't think there is much argument that they should sit any higher on the ladder.

Remember, the greyed out provisional positions are indicative, not accepted positions on the ladder. I thought it would be helpful to show where they are currently notionally sitting, but perhaps I should put them down below (like Cam suggested to me).

Brett, your second comment was a tad quicker than mine. Might just be a better way to show the ranks.
