Romania Rugby World Cup Team
The Romania squad, nicknamed The Oaks (Stejarii), have been one of the stronger European teams outside of the Six Nations tournament to compete in the Rugby World Cup. Romania compete in the European Nations and Super Cups and are consistent performers.
Romania have played in every Rugby World Cup since the first competition was held in 1987 in Australia and New Zealand, with their best result being a win during the pool stages.
However, the likes of Georgia have challenged Romania for top spot below the Six Nations, and Georgia, along with Portugal have both won the European Nations Cup. Romania may secure a win against Portugal - but other than that they face some tough games in their World Cup Pool.
Romania are ranked 15th in the world.
