Good Afternoon Rugby Fans :-) :-) :-)
HERE ARE THE POOL TABLES ( As of 2.00pm on Tuesday, October 6th)
P = Played W = Won D = Drawn L = Lost PD = Points Difference (this will be explained in my next post) BP = Bonus Point ( A team who scores 4 or more Tries during one game will receive 1 Bonus Point, as will a team who loses a game by 7 points or less)
POINTS = Total Points so far.
THE TOP 2 TEAMS FROM EACH POOL WILL GO THROUGH TO THE QUARTER FINALS AT THE END OF THE POOL STAGE
POOL A (Named "The Pool Of Death")
1. AUSTRALIA ............. P 3, W 3, D 0, L 0, PD +97, BP 1 ............TOTAL POINTS: 13 2. WALES ..................... P 3, W 3, D 0, L 0, PD +58, BP 1 ........... TOTAL POINTS: 13 3. ENGLAND ................ P 3, W 1, D 0, L 2, PD +1, BP 2 ............. TOTAL POINTS: 6 4. FIJI ............................ P 3, W 0, D 0, L 3, PD -49, BP 0 ............ TOTAL POINTS: 0 5. URUGUAY ............... P 2, W 0, D 0, L 2, PD -107, BP 0 ........... TOTAL POINTS: 0
Australia and Wales are both through to the Quarter Finals from this Pool, as now no other team can beat them.
POOL B
1. SOUTH AFRICA ...... P 3, W 2, D 0, L 1, PD +56, BP 3 ........... TOTAL POINTS: 11 2. SCOTLAND .............. P 3, W 2, D 0, L 1, PD +40, BP 2 .......... TOTAL POINTS: 10 3.

USA ........................... P 2, W 0, D 0, L 2, PD -32, BP 0 ............. TOTAL POINTS: 0
This is exciting, as any 2 of the top 3 teams will be going through to the Quarter Finals, depending on the outcome of their final pool games. Samoa and USA will now not be able to amass enough points to go through.

New Zealand are through to the Quarter Finals, as no other team can now beat them. Argentina or Tonga will be the second place team going up, dependent on the outcome of their respective games.
