Pool A: New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Hong Kong China
Pool B: South Africa, Italy, Georgia, Romania,
Pool C: Argentina, Fiji, Spain, Canada,
Pool D: Ireland, Scotland, Uruguay, Portugal
Pool E: France, Japan, USA, Samoa
Pool F: England, Wales, Tonga, Zimbabwe

Pool C would have been better but F isn't too bad. And of the top 6 teams, England is one of the better options for us, I reckon.

Pool B looks entertaining, as Georgia will target Italy and Romania will have a go too.

At least we have avoided Fiji. Tonga will be a physical test but I’d fancy our chances and Zimbabwe should be comfortable.

England on paper now are out of sight but give it time and nerves and anything can happen. We could always pick a scrum half on the wing to tempt fate again!

Pool A is going to be a complete bloodbath

You'd feel that groups A, C and F have a chance of a surprise winner. Not the others.
