[QUOTE="Brigantine, post: 795821, member: 73940"] I beg to differ The [URL="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_World_Rugby_Pacific_Nations_Cup"]Pacific Nations Cup[/URL] is where USA need to perform well to prove themselves. In the Americas Rugby Championship only USA and Canada are at most world cups (and Argentina's senior team). Also Georgia are playing tests against the other 4 Pacific Nations this year - because that's who they want to prove themselves against. USA already has that opportunity 2 years out of 4. You can't go too wrong using World Rugby Rankings to compare where teams are at. Just take care with ENC teams that win/lose their division, which seem to bounce around a lot (limited opportunity to play slightly better/worse teams). Big gap between 11 and 12, big gap between 15 and 16/17. [/QUOTE]
