The pool of death. Ordered by current world ranking:

  1. Ireland
  2. South Africa
  3. Scotland
  4. Tonga
  5. Romania

As a Scot I feel I've been done dirty. Can't see us escaping the group, but all 3 games at the top will be tasty to watch for sure. Anyone brave enough to call Ireland vs South Africa yet?

I think SA finishes first then Ireland in second. I do think that if Ireland and SA aren't playing there best they could be susceptible to a challenge from Scotland who have been playing very good.
