Rugby World Cup 2015: Winners, Losers from England vs. Australia

England were eliminated from the Rugby World Cup 2015 after suffering a humiliating 13-33 defeat to Australia.

Wales would have looked on from afar with mixed feelings. They have now qualified for the quarter-finals after three matches, but they will not fancy taking on the Wallabies next weekend.

Rugby World Cup Results 2015: New Zealand vs. Georgia Score, Updated Fixtures

World champions New Zealand were comprehensive 43-10 winners over Georgia at the Millennium Stadium on Friday in an intriguing Rugby World Cup clash.

Rugby World Cup 2015: Winners and Losers from New Zealand vs. Georgia

New Zealand weathered some heavy Georgian hitting and their own sloppiness at times to secure their third bonus-point win in Pool C of the Rugby World Cup 2015, recording a 43-10 victory. The Lelos shocked the All Blacks when they levelled the scores at 7-7 early in the piece, but a further three tries gave Steve Hansen’s men a cushion and the bonus point by half-time. But it was far from slick rugby from the men in black, with plenty of attacks fizzling out with a series of handling errors rarely seen from the World Champions.

South Africa vs. Scotland: Preview, Live Stream and TV for Rugby World Cup Game

Rugby World Cup 2015’s Pool B will virtually be decided on Saturday as South Africa take on Scotland at St James’ Park, England. The Springboks once again come into a match on uncertain terms as the convincing 46-6 win last weekend against Samoa came at a heavy price. Captain Jean de Villiers fractured his jaw in the match against the physical opponents, and after being ruled out of the rest of the tournament, he decided to retire from international rugby. De Villiers’ tally of 37 matches as captain of South Africa is only bettered by John Smit’s mammoth 83. Luckily, South...

New Zealand coach Steve Hansen isn’t taking the threat of Georgia lightly after naming a very experienced XV for their Pool C collision on Friday. Captain Richie McCaw is among those making his return to the All Blacks’ starting lineup after coming on as a substitute against Namibia, while Georgia coach Milton Haig has made widespread changes to his team. Georgia were embarrassed 54-9 at the hands of Argentina last Friday, and Haig told Sky Sports why he was looking to use a raft of fresh faces for the All Blacks fixture at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium: We’ve made...
