Well, we'll jump some spots THIS week!
We probably won't go up that much. Because we are the home team we are considered to be 2 points better than we are so we will be 81.9837. The Tahs will be 82.34. Very little difference between the two. I'd imagine if we win by under 15 we'll probably go up 1.5 points which will take us to 81.4 and that would keep us in the same position we are now. But if a few of the teams ahead of us lose then we will go up a few spots.
