Scotland and Japan the two other "big hitters" in the group. 
Gonna take a lot of spin to justify Ireland collapsing in the quarter-final this time around!

The Japanese will hold no fear of Joe Sugartits' Thai-Geisha, which is how they'll refer to us...

Ireland will be undercooked come the QFs
That'll be the excuse

I've been to Japan years ago with work but would love to go back for a holiday. RWC 2019 looks like a good excuse.

Shame she's English Canadian so means we'll likely need to follow the Faz army around for a bit

The other sides in Ireland's pool likely to be Romania and Tonga. Ireland would face NZ/South Africa in the QFs if they get through.

As far as I can tell, Europe 1 is likely to be someone like Romania or Georgia.
"Play-off" is between another European team who isn't Europe 1 (like Romania/Georgia, Spain or Russia) and third placed Pacific team (Fiji, Samoa or Tonga)

Georgia already in, Europe 1 likely to be Romania. Based on most recent results the play off would be Spain v Tonga. Spain sitting 3rd in 6N B after '17 tournament behind Romania and Georgia. Tonga finished last in last year's PNC.mikerob wrote:As far as I can tell, Europe 1 is likely to be someone like Romania or Georgia.
