Question

If France beat Ireland this weekend, does that mean NZ to face France in the Quarters then?

Answer 1

Check the latest table standings.

Answer 2

If France finish second in their pool they face the AllBlacks.France is the only team in the World that can beat any team on any given day,believe me my AllBlacks have been on the end of some of France better days but not this year.GO ALLBLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

France and NZ will face in quarters onnly if France finish 2nd of its pool !! If Ireland beats Argentina, France may finish 1st and they won't face NZ ! I expect Ireland will beat Argentina and France will finish 1st because I'm French (Allez les Bleus avec CHABAL ^^!!) and I worried about a quarter NZ-France because All Blacks are very very good and it's gonna be hard to beat them (exept if we play like in 1999 in Marseille :D !!)

Answer 4

No it doesn't. If Ireland beat Argentina in the final pool D match then all 3 teams could end up with 3 wins and 1 loss. The top two qualifiers will then be decided on bonus points and points differencial.

So if France win they could still finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd in their pool. It all depends on bonus points from the other games and of course the outcome of the Ireland/Argentina game.
