"real villains of the piece were the boardroom numbskulls who decided to seed teams on spurious 2011 ratings" Seedings were based upon 2012 ratings and the damage was done by Wales who squeezed in an extra international against Australia in the autumn of 2012.. Wales duly lost (like they had in their previous games against Australia going back some time...) That meant Wales dropped out of the top 8 rankings so were a third seed for the RWC. If Wales hadn't played the extra game, they would have been in the top 8 and England's group would have been different. |
