2012? Pff that's nothing compared to us, almost 20 years in this shit and still no victory.

 

Although no offense, but Argentina wasn't on my list of nations I thought would have had more wins   (which might be due to my severe lack of rugby knowledge though)

 

Well, now I'm gonna cheer for Argentina at every event

Argentina is still better than us  Couple of finals through the last seasons 

And yes Australia is a relatively "transparent" team for what concerns the men, a good team but not among the best

ooops forget everything I said, just found out we won a leg in 2009 long time ago, but still yay.

2005 for our last and only win (at home), plus 2 finals only ... and each year they say "France has the potential to be a top-4 team "

Just 

And we pretend to be a top-tier rugby country ...

I was curious here's a quick "world series ranking" I've made. It uses the last four completed seasons (not the 2017-2018 season) and weighs the most recent season (2016-17) more heavily (in a 100%-75%-50%-25% way).

 

1.   South Africa - 435.25

2.   Fiji - 403.75

3.   New Zealand - 376.50

4.   England - 332.50

5.   Australia - 302.50

6.   United States - 281.00

7.   Argentina - 238.00

8.   Scotland - 234.00

9.   Canada - 184.00

10. Kenya - 180.50

11. France - 177.25

12. Samoa - 169.50

13. Wales - 157.25

14. Russia - 50.00*

15. Portugal - 36.25*

16. Japan - 30.50*

17. Spain - 5.00*

 

* Nation did not participate in all 4 seasons.

And another in 2004.

Wales have only ever won 1 tournament - but that win, in 2009, made them World Champions.

So Australia in 5th, I knew they weren't that bad. Should have won more often

It more has to do with South Africa, Fiji and New Zealand being so good. Of the 51 tournaments between Australia's wins 40 of them were won by one of those three nations.

Argentina again in a final of world sevens series.

 

PLEASE DON'T LOSE IT
