[QUOTE="Brigantine, post: 1050662, member: 73940"] I had my eye on Tunisia and Algeria, I've felt for a while they've been flying under the radar. But COVID got in the way for Tunisia. Algeria beat Uganda, and I see now they were 20 - 3 up against Ghana before they emptied the bench (and lost). They're there in the QFs for next year, on the easy side of the table. So IMO still one to watch. They're ranked super low, but only because they just joined the rankings, and the bottom is where you start. Have to wait until next year though. Hmm... 16 games total in 7 out of the 8 years 2012-2019. But 2 games in a season is typical for tier 3. With 3 new rugby countries in Africa now, including Burkina Faso up the road, maybe they'll regularly get 3. What do you think they should be reaching? and if they're going any distance, who should pay? (I guess you could go either "Nigerian league XV" or "London Nigerian") [/QUOTE]
