[QUOTE="sigesige00, post: 844291, member: 42159"] Yes, I meant that the total points of both sides. I was unaware of 7-point game -- e.g. 28 (4 tries) - 26 (4 tries) As for the 4-try bonus point, Super Rugby's system (when the difference of the number of tries is 3 or more, 1 bonus point is given) is much better. The 4-try bonus point system can kill game sometimes. For example, Wales needed only 1 point in the last pool game to qualify for QF in the 2011 World Cup (and South Africa had already secured the 1st place). Wales scored the 4th try 38mins in the 1st half. Wales did not need play anymore. [/QUOTE]
