1. Los Angeles Giltinis (Last Week: 1)
Their biggest test yet is on deck. It might not matter.
2. Austin Gilgronis (LW: 2)
The bye keeps them here. If they can take their show on the road, it’ll be a statement to the rest of the league.
3. Rugby United New York (LW: 4)
A narrow win over Seattle didn’t push them up, but Toronto managed to fall.
4. NOLA Gold (LW: 5)
They beat a really good fantastic Toronto team. They still managed to look rough while doing it. One of the biggest questions in the league is how good this team actually is.
5. Toronto Arrows (LW: 3)
The Arrows took a set back against NOLA. Is it a blip on the radar or the start of a regression?
6. Rugby ATL (LW: 6)
The bye keeps them flat.
7. Utah Warriors (LW: 7)
The bye keeps them flat.
8. Houston SaberCats (LW: 9)
The bye should keep them flat, but DC taking their required beating by LA nudges them up.
9. New England Free Jacks (LW: 11)
Poland. Boyle. Fife. This team is becoming a can’t-miss show. If they can keep it rolling against the Austin defense, they’ll shoot right up these rankings.
10. Old Glory DC (LW: 8)
Everyone sinks after meeting LA. Their match against Utah will decide if they stay here.
11. Seattle Seawolves (LW: 12)
The fact they pushed RUNY to the end provides hope. 7 of their last 10 at home is reason for optimism. Also, San Diego has completely collapsed and space was needed at the bottom.
12. San Diego Legion (LW: 10)
There’s a lot of reasons to forgive the Legion for this year, but excuses don’t convert to bonus points. Seattle has a clearer path to the playoffs then San Diego does.
