    Standings after two games. NZ needs a hell of a game against the Aussies to reach the Cup QF.

    @Stargazer don't they just need to win? They have the best points difference by far.

    After watching this game, I'm not sure "just winning" this game will be that easy.

    @Higgins Hope the ref didn't have a hand in that (I didn't watch the game). Don't want a repeat of last week, when the home team was "helped" by the officiating.

    Just watched the Spain game. Thought Spain played pretty well. Pretty good line speed.

    7s reffing is a total lottery. Seemed some baffling decisions both ways.

    Good one Spain. They look pretty sharp from what I've seen last couple of tournaments, and often just lack that final bit of polish to get the job done against more established sides.

    The Aussies however are inconsistent in their decision making. France harried then well and we made crucial errors with our lack of composure. "Rocket" Rod Davies is a dud

    FT: NZ 24 - 26 Spain

    Too many missed tackles, shit officiating. Not sure whether Spain deserved the win, because several of their tries came after bad decisions from the ref. However, a well-playing AB7s team would have won anyway.

    Spain is one of the strongest of the upcoming nations; good for the game to have a new country joining the top and giving strong competition to the usual favourites.

    Is Spain this year's Kenya?
