1984–85 FIRA Trophy


The 1984–85 FIRA Trophy was the 25th edition of a European rugby union championship for national teams.
The tournament was won by France, with a Grand Slam, finishing ahead of Soviet Union and Italy.
Romania could not make "Top 3" for very first time ever, due to inferior points difference in head-to-head games with Soviet Union and Italy.
As it was initially agreed, Division 1 would be shrunk to 5 teams for next edition. That's why Spain and Tunisia which finished as 5th and 6th, were relegated and replaced by Portugal which won the Second Division and got promoted.
Subsequently, at FIRA Annual Congress, held in mid-June, it was decided to continue with 6 teams, and the two relegated teams met for a barrage game at neutral venue to decide the survivor, with the Tunisians winning.
