Fiji Airways Flying Fijians remain 11th in the latest World Rugby men’s rankings.

Fiji has played two test matches this year where they were beaten by the All Blacks on both occasions.

Meanwhile, the All Blacks have cut South Africa’s lead at the top by just over one rating point after completing a clean sweep of Bledisloe Cup victories against Australia.

This means the Wallabies drop back below Argentina into 7th position.

England, Ireland and France complete the top 5.

This week in the Rugby Championship, the All Blacks will take on Argentina at 7.05pm Sunday while the Wallabies will play South Africa at 10.05pm.
