# Rugby: The Springboks are still safely in top position in the world rankings despite last playing in November, but Ireland relinquished second spot to the All Blacks after Saturday’s Six Nations loss to fourth-placed France. Les Bleus missed out on the opportunity to move ahead of Ireland for the first time since July 2022 when they relinquished a 42-13 lead to eventually win 42-27. The rest of the top-ten stays the same. Argentina is in fifth position, followed by England, Scotland, Australia, Fiji and Italy.
