With the resumption of International Australian Rules Football Matches when the 2024 Trans-Atlantic Cup gets under way on 2nd August in Toronto, Canada, and the debut of Colombia and France Women* to International 'Footy' I think it is appropriate to refresh everyone on how our World Footy News World Ranking scheme works.

Australian Rules Football World Ranking

The Australian Rules Football World Rankings are a “Points Exchange” system in which sides take points off each other based on match results. Whatever one side gains, the other loses. The points exchanges are based on match result, the relative strength of each team, and the margin of victory, and there is an allowance for home advantage.

World Footy News World Ranking Women 2024

Below is the WFN World Ranking Women 2024, which includes the 49th Parallel Cup matches between Canada and United States teams played in August 2023. With the Trans-Atlantic Cup due to be contested shortly, a refresher about the Ranking Scheme wouldn't go astray:

P is Provisional: Nations need to play 8 (eight) elegible matchs to become fuuly ranked.

D is Dormant: A nation becomes dormant when it has not played a match in 5 years. It retains its rating points until it plays its next eligible match. Initially if country did not play a match for eight years it would be removed from the Ranks. Due to the pandemic disrupting International Footy for nigh on 3 years, I have unilaterally decided to extend the cut off time out to 10 years. I don't think I will get any arguments about that. Tonga would have been removed at end of 2022 so hopefully if they get involved in the Pacific Cup later this year they can rejoin the Ranks.
