💨 Abstract

The Springboks, currently first in World Rugby Rankings, will aim to maintain their top position to secure an easier group stage in the 2027 Rugby World Cup. The top six teams—Springboks, New Zealand, Ireland, France, England, and Australia (hosts)—will be seeded separately. This setup means the Springboks will likely face teams like Argentina, Scotland, Fiji, Italy, Georgia, or Wales.
