@xLurch@OrangeLight12@cazzrhughes T&T beat Jamaica in the final game to win the Gold medal. Vindication for their decision to prioritise the CAC games. The ranking boost Jamaica would have gained from beating Aus has been wiped out by losing to a team 8 places below them.
Commonwealth Games Semi-Finals and Finals: Whatever the top 4 placings, @AussieDiamonds will remain ranked 1st and @SilverFernsNZ 2nd. If @NetballJamaica win the Gold Medal, they will go up to 3rd (@EnglandNetball 4th). Any other outcome and it remains England 3rd, Jamaica 4th.
Commonwealth Games Classification Matches: Whatever the outcome of the match, South Africa will remain 5th and Uganda will remain 6th in the world rankings.
Commonwealth Games Netball Classification Matches: If Malawi beat Scotland, they will climb to 8th in the ranking, Scotland remaining at 10th. If Scotland win they will reach 9th in the rankings, just behind Wales, with Malawi dropping to 10th.
Commonwealth Games Netball Classification Matches: The winner of Tonga vs Wales will go into 7th. The loser will finish in 9th if Malawi beat Scotland, or 8th if Scotland beat Malawi.
If @netballni beat Trinidad and Tobago, they would return to 14th in the rankings, with Trinidad and Tobago dropping to 17th. A loss for @netballni would put them in 19th with Trinidad and Tobago finishing 13th.
