    Wales can reach the top 20 team but a top ten i dont think so. we would have to be consistent against the big international teams to be considered a top team. you have to give them credit for getting into the top 30 that is brilliant for a country of our size and prominently a rugby country...:emoticon-0137-clapp

    All credit to the team and Coleman for getting us in a position to be seeded for the World Cup 2018. Whether you agree with the ranking system or not this is the only thing that matters. This hopefully will help us for qualifying by avoiding some of the better teams, better that than being in amongst the bottom seeds.

    Disagree Dai. With a fully fit squad, we are now as good as anyone. Other than Germany, the way we are playing under Coleman, I'd back us to turn everyone else over at home.

    I dont think so valley, we have had to defend for our lives in a lot of games and we had some decisions go our way for a change but without bale we would struggle....granted its the best welsh side since 1958 but a top 10 is pushing it big time. I would love it but im a realist and i dont see us as a top 10 team....

    Its a farce really but if it helps us then great but there is no way we are better than some of the teams below us....
