The ACC's Mitre 10 Cup Power Rankings - Round 1

Welcome to another season of The ACC's Mitre 10 Cup Power Rankings.

The Mitre 10 Cup is almost as confusing as Super Rugby with its points and standings system so we thought we'd make it easier for you to understand.

This week the Power Rankings are based on chlamydia rates per (100, 000 population) in the region for each team.
