This is how the positions table of the World Circuit ended, after the fifth place of the Pumas 7s in Perth

The Argentina national rugby team, Pumas 7s, finished fifth in the Perth Sevens, maintaining their sixth position in the overall ranking of the World Circuit.

The Pumas 7s, Argentina's national rugby sevens team, placed fifth at the Perth Sevens, which took place at HBF Park. This event was part of the 2025-2026 World Circuit and marked the fourth stage of the competition. After initial defeats to Fiji, South Africa, and Spain, the team advanced to the consolation bracket where they secured victories against France and Spain, garnering 12 points for their efforts. Overall, the team now holds 44 points, positioning them sixth overall in a tightly contested race.

Their performance in Perth was a mix of disappointing initial matches followed by notable victories in the losers' bracket. The results reflect the competitive nature of the tournament, with Fiji and South Africa leading the charge in the general standings, while New Zealand, France, and Australia closely trail. The win against France was particularly significant as it helped regain momentum after the group stage setbacks. The current standings demonstrate the challenges faced by the Pumas 7s in their quest for a higher ranking as the regular season progresses with only two stages remaining.

As they prepare for the next legs of the series, the focus will be on building consistency and capitalizing on their remaining matches to improve their overall standings. With the competition heating up as teams vie for points and placement, the Pumas 7s will need to elevate their game to challenge the top teams effectively in the upcoming tournaments.
