No surprises this past weekend of group play, with the marquis matchup between Australia and Fiji being the best of the weekend. Fiji dominated and held on to beat the Australians 22-15.
There were no other upsets.
This coming weekend will feature Ireland vs South Africa - the top teams in the world - squaring off in Group B play (15:00 USAET Saturday). Both of these teams likely advance but higher seeding matters.
The group C match between Wales and Australia (15:00 USAET Sunday) determines the order of the group. Wales have won both of their games while Fiji sit second in the group after their win on Sunday. Australia must beat Wales to have a shot at advancing, though Eddie Jones's club don't look the part.
