WFR International Rankings

The WFR World Rankings are now using the Same Calculations as the IRB ... So as of the 5th Nov 2013 we are starting the WFR Rankings Based on the Actual IRB Ratings. Those Countries that are not on the IRB List will begin with a rating of 20.00 and the WFR Invitational Sides have been allocated a Rank based on their History in WFR. So this Means we will have a more accurate Rating system based on Results between seeded teams and the size of their scorelines :

Example: Netherlands vs Poland

NETH (on 52.84 points) at home -vs- POL (on 55.64 points)

Possible Outcome	Rating Point Exchange	New NETH Rating	New POL Rating	Will NETH overtake POL?
If NETH win by 1-15 points	0.980	53.82	54.66	No
If NETH win by more than 15	1.470	54.31	54.17	Yes
If result is a draw	0.020	52.82	55.66	No
If POL win by 1-15 points	1.020	51.82	56.66	No
If POL win by more than 15	1.530	51.31	57.17	No
