Following the Rugby World Cup final won by South Africa against New Zealand, the world ranking established by World Rugby has moved slightly. The All Blacks, unfortunate finalists, fell one place and went down to 3rd place, overtaken by Ireland (2nd), world number 1 before the World Cup, which moved up one place. The Springboks, who took first place during the competition, logically remain the world number 1. France is fourth.
