A lot of games closer than generally predicted:

New Zealand beat Tonga by 31
Scotland beat Romania by 10
Fiji beat Namibia by 24
France beat Japan by 26
England beat Argentina by 4
Australia beat Italy by 26
Ireland beat USA by 12
South Africa beat Wales by 1

No spot on predictions, but Hurricane was 1 out on France v Japan and Marcuss 1 out on Australia v Italy.

Everyone got all 8 match results, which means 40 points and anyone who got 40 overall is generally a bit **** at this.

Thought I'd be scoring closer to 40 TBH, seemed like I overestimated the margins of victory in almost every match.

Suggest someone renaming the thread "World Cup Tipping" or somewhat - "predictions" is more the who'll win it/best player thing like t'other thread.
