The Vodafone Flying Fijians have moved up a spot in the World Rugby ranking.

Fiji was last ranked 13th in the world but has moved up to 12th position.

Meanwhile, Australia’s 26‑23 loss to Ireland has seen them slip to fifth spot equaling their lowest ever position since the rankings were introduced in 2003.

The All Blacks, who were named World Rugby Team of the Year for the fifth year in a row after the match, have been the number 1 team in the world for five years.

The Springboks are still 2nd in the rankings with Ireland in 3rd spot while England moves up to 4th position.
