Ireland hold off South Africa in one of the best-played rugby games I've seen in years to sort out Group B (the group of death). Ireland all but certain to advance to the knockout stage vs. the runner up in Group A (New Zealand, currently). South Africa likely to face hosts and leaders of Group A, France. Two marquis matchups, and a hard roll for the losing teams in these matchups.
Over in Group C, Wales dominated Australia while Fiji (idle) sit comfortably in second behind the Welsh. Australia need a Fiji loss and help to stay in it.
England sit firmly atop Group D and it's wide open for the runner up position. Argentina have the talent to push past Japan and Samoa but need results on the pitch.
This weekend's fixtures aren't very appealing. Best of the week will be Ireland v. Scotland, with the Scots hoping for an upset. The rest of the games will be snoozers this week.
