France v New Zealand looks like a mouthwatering tournament opener. Both sides should progress comfortably with Italy looking the strongest of the rest

Who’s your picks for places? World ranking currently say

  1. France
  2. New Zealand
  3. Italy
  4. Uruguay
  5. Namibia

Any potential upsets? Could see France losing the opener of the whole tournament. Could Italy pull off a France mugging off the back of that? Last fixture of the pool, and Italy have done it not so long ago in the 6n iirc

      To be honest I wish I could be optimistic. Theres a chance itll be a good game but at any rate it would be really nice seeing Nam give their best.

      Either way theres going to be an amazing game day braai going on lol.
