JoshMartini007 2,257 Posted May 20, 2023 #61 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Two rounds of the pool stages are completed. Things not looking good for South Africa, they need to beat New Zealand in their final game to keep their Olympic hopes alive. Australia had a bit of a bump against Samoa. Their match against France next will be important in order to get a better quarterfinal opponent. It might be important as it looks like Samoa has come to play this tournament. The play-off group looks quite interesting. Kenya is in a good position with two wins, but the group can turn into a 3-way 2-1 record tie. In the reverse, Tonga isn't out yet as we can also see a 3-way 1-2 record tie. Josh and Benolympique 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshMartini007 2,257 Posted May 20, 2023 #62 Share Posted May 20, 2023 South Africa failed to reach the cup quarterfinals. Oceania will be represented by at least 4 nations at the Olympics. In that battle, Australia faces Fiji while Samoa faces Great Britain. Should be interesting tomorrow. Josh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if they are awarding points as usual or like they do with the women's event (since they are doing a 7th & 11th place matches). If it is the latter then Samoa in third & Australia in eighth would be enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
