A look at the pools
The 20 best sides in the world have been split into 4 pools based on their rankings in 2020. As of 21/05/2023, Ireland and France are the two best teams in the world, however they were put in band two, whilst England and Wales are in band one. This has meant the pool stage is much more spicier than people may have imagined it’d be.

Excited for the World Cup? So are we. In the meantime, we have loads of rugby-related stuff going on in our sports bars and pubs across the UK. Read more from our writers over on our rugby blog!
