Have fun. My likely scenario attached. ;)

Samoa to top pool B. Looks like you are suggesting the Saffa's will get off to a slow start then lift as they progress. Stranger things have happened.

I think were three upsets at the last world cup. There are always at least one or two. I reckon the same will happen this time. It would be in S.A. interest not to top their pool as they would then have to play N.Z. in the semis.

It looks like the winner of pool c plays 2nd in pool D. Not the winner of pool b which is the Saffa pool. Have I got that correct?

Had a couple of messages from people asking about a Brisbane meet-up for the games, so I've put a thread up in case anyone is interested -

These times are really bad. I have some work in Europe for the next week and a half. Timing could be better.

I predict NZ after injury requires replacement from NZ to be sent across, who scores the winning try.

Good luck to both Fiji and England. May the best team win.

I shan't get to see many of the early games, certainly, shifts are all wrong for the timings :(
