Ladders at completion of Round 3 -  Saturday 16th August 2014

The Women's is straight forward but the Men are divided into 3 pools, with the complication being that the top 4 that go through to the semi-finals after 3 rounds are the top of each pool and then the next best based on combining all the teams - hence we've also shown a Combined ladder. That will also determine the teams that make what the AFL has called Division 1, i.e. teams 5 - 12, and Division 2, i.e. teams 13 to 18.

The 4 nations through to the top level men's semi-finals are: Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea.

Teams into Division 1 (the second tier) are: Canada, Tonga, Nauru, Fiji, USA, Great Britain, Pakistan, France.

The remaining teams go into Division 3 (third tier): Sweden, Japan, China, Finland, India, Indonesia.
