this looks like a opportunistic conspiracy to get the hosts through, maybe not an elaborate one, but certainly minimal effort is going towards getting this game played, an opportunist conspiracy
very unimpressed with tournament organization if this game does not go ahead, the group stage has...
Looks like topping this group will lead to a harder road to the final.
So NZ will have to get through likely Ireland, then England in order to make it to the final
South Africa likely will get Japan then Wales.
I'm going to put money on a South Africa vs England final like in 2007.
