Grammar

came or come

If the team Sharks won, your team (other team) would've came / come first.

Which one is correct?
Thank you very much.

EDIT: I'm so sorry if it's in the wrong section. Please forgive me.

Grammatically it should be "would've come first", but I am struggling to understand the meaning. "come first" means "won". If the Sharks won, then how can another team have won?

Well, i'm talking about the ladder. Please take a look at this ladder: http://www.nrl.com/DrawResults/TelstraPremiership/Ladder/tabid/10251/Default.aspx

Let's say, if 'Panthers' won against 'Sea Eagles', then 'Rabbitohs' would've came/come first?

I don't understand the ladder at all, but it's "would've come."
