Yeah, beat Australia and win the group without any questions, that would be ideal. And would take pressure off the Georgia game. Right, we'll do that then.
Job done. What's the next issue to be solved?
My example was because Fiji are the darlings of the rugby world and any scenario which sees them eliminated on something that could even slightly be seen as "unfair" will be met with general opprobrium.

Yep. There’s a lot of emotion surrounding Fiji and people are desperate to see them go through, especially if it’s at the expense of Australia. They’ve really upset the status quo.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Portugal don’t give Australia a tight game after the fright they gave us.
Wales just need to keep winning.

And we’ve got a fortnight to rest, recover and practice while others are worrying about qualification.
We shouldn’t underestimate Georgia and will need to put together a team which blends our first and second XVs to ensure victory.
I feel a warm afterglow from last night’s amazing win. Long May it continue.

Looking at the draw, we should get Japan or Argentina in the quarters. Argentina haven't impressed so far and Japan are a shadow of what they were a few years ago. We could very well be looking at the semis
