- Following the completion of the Autumn International Series World Rugby has issued its final set of rankings for 2021.
And despite finishing their year with defeat at Twickenham, it is 2019 World Cup winning South Africa who emerge on top of the pile two years before launching their title defence in France.
Jacques Nienaber’s team remain ahead of the All Blacks after following up their Rugby Championship win over their Southern Hemisphere rivals with wins in Cardiff against Wales and in Edinburgh against Scotland.
Since winning the Rugby Championship, New Zealand put 100 points on the USA in Washington before also racking up big wins over depleted Wales and Italy.
However, Ian Foster’s team have since suffered back-to-back defeats against Ireland and France and as a result now sit less than one point ahead of third-placed England who added the scalps of Tonga and Australia to their last-gasp Springbok success.
The third Southern Hemisphere super power, Australia, have slipped to sixth position after their under-strength side suffered consecutive defeats against Scotland, England and Wales - with the Cardiff and Edinburgh games decided by slender margins.
Ireland and France have both enjoyed successful Autumn campaigns during which they built on memorable triumphs against the All Blacks by remaining unbeaten. As a consequence both now sit ahead of the Wallabies in fourth and fifth positions.

Why I created my TH-cam Channel: Through my TH-cam Channel "Walking Tall with G-MAN" I strive to inspire and motivate people to never give up in life as well as using this platform to share my sporting passion.
When I was younger, I was told because of my height I wouldn’t be able to play a sport in school however I proved everyone wrong and played sport and became first-team cricket captain of my school.
Having dwarfism did force me to stop playing sport after varsity; however, I continued to share my passion through my TH-cam Channel.
Another great insightful video Gareth. Thanks as always.
Thank you Barry!
Great video 👍👍 the All Blacks will return!
Yes they will. Sometimes you need your ass kicked to create the motivation to change up
That's one prediction that anyone can make & get right. 🤣
The problem with the French for the past 5 years was that they were not fit enough but This new coach fixed that problem
I have subbed quite a while now, I always watch for your reactions gman , and always will , 6 nations this omg don't know who is going to win , France are favourite, but only just, its going to be a belter
Nice Video Gareth good to see you getting back in the groove!
The rankings says it all, France as hosts for 2023 are favorites so it would be interesting if they're fourth time lucky on home soil after being bridesmaids three times.
Anyways looking forward to the internationals next year to see who is going to be the teams to watch for RWC2023.
If any country deserves to win the world cup, it's gotta be France! they've been in so many finals and semi's but come up short.
I have always said that if another NH team was going to win a World Cup it'll be France.
Gary (RSA) how great r the Bokke! lost but we still #1.Bleed green/gold - Bokke! for life.
A factor in the Autumn games is that the SH teams are fatigued and the NH teams are fresher. It reverses in the Summer Tours in June...
i keep hearing this, yet there was only a 2 week gap between premiership seasons plus the lions tour.
Australia was utterly screwed by the Ref against Wales (and somewhat against Scotland). It certainly impacted the results.
Still, Australia desperately needs to tighten their discipline to not even put themselves in that position.
reckleessly head butting the opposition probably didn't help though.
I think the all blacks will now make Scott Robertson their head coach.
I'd swap France for New Zealand
France to win 6 nation
Scots dark horse
France will get a close again but Ireland or England will win it I reckon.
