[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1117245, member: 74121"] I personally dont respect the number 1 ranking too much, particularly when the previous long term occupier basically gifted it away by hiring (and retaining) a mediocre coach. I do respect getting more than 90 points in the rankings (which France and Ireland both have attained at present). That's a proper achievement and if a team holds that for a calendar year nobody should be doubting your class. If either Ireland or France can sustain 90+ points for this particular full year they'll likely be world champs and indisputably the best side of 2023 (obviously they'll care much less about the latter). Italy currently just 15 points and 11 places short of greatness, and that's the best they've been in ages. [/QUOTE]
