    Wales narrowly. Eddie goes home after giving the dirt-trackers a go at Portugal and barely winning.

    Ahead of Australia’s date with destiny this weekend, coach Jones confirmed that both Skelton and Tupou will not play against Wales in Lyon.

    “Neither of those will be available for Wales,” Jones told reporters after the loss to Fiji.

    I don't necessarily think Wales are better, just they have more clarity of purpose, and that should be enough to beat this Australian team who are all over the shop

    Which almost guarantees the Wallabies by 15

    I was going to write exactly this as I feel pretty much so identical.

    All signs point to Wales.

    Which is why Oz will win.

    Agreed. I’ve plumped for Aus by one score based purely on the feeling that they have to click at least once. But form is clearly with Wales.

    Glad Wales can rely on your company @Catogrande. Is it called "Large Pussies" or "Bermuda Triangle Whiskers" by any chance?

    I don't want to predict anything. The form of these teams is so loyalty and soul-destroying if I plump for one it is bound to be the other one.

    Form. Form.

    I have nothing firm going on for Wales or any other rugby team. Edit now in place and thanks for alerting me.

    "I have nothing firm going on for Wales" Ha! I didn't even deliberately misread it that way but "firm" as in "company/business"! I dread looking up the urban dictionary for Welsh chubby.
    Edit. Yup, it appears that you can get your undercarriage washed at Chubby Welsh Autos. Scores well with the employees, they look forward to regular raises.
    Oh it is located in Narrabeen, New South Wales, Australia, but nothing's perfect.

    The fact that the way Wales have been playing can be described as anything remotely approximating "form" is a damning indictment of the Wallabies

    You and @mariner4life are on the reverse-reverse curse pretty hard.

    Fucking Queenslanders....

    Can see this being a horrible dour game of "don't lose" footy.

    Neither team scores 20.

    Typically I would back Oz as they've been jammy bastards, but this is as bad a Wallaby squad as I've ever seen. To think that the available players are magically going to stop doing dumb shit now beggars belief.

    The only reason this is a coin toss is how bad Wales are.

    Will remember this for future reference

    Can see this being a horrible dour game of "don't lose" footy.

    Neither team scores 20.

    Depends on points

    The possible outcomes if both Wales and Australia score 5 point wins vs the minnows and Fiji score two 5 point wins vs minnows

    This is how it might pan out.

    Australia Win without a bonus point = 15 Points (Qualify #2)
    Wales lose without any bonus points = 15 Points (OZ go through as they beat Wales.)
    Fiji go through on 16 Points (Qualify #1)

    Australia Win with a bonus point = 16 Points
    Wales lose with a bonus point = 16 Points
    Fiji have 16 Points
    (I don't know how they work this out, is it the team with the biggest PD qualify #1 then whoever won between PD 2 & 3?)

    Australia Win without a bonus point = 15 Points
    Wales lose with a bonus point = 16 Points (Qualify #1 as beat Fiji)
    Fiji have 16 Points (Qualify #2)

    Australia Win with a bonus point = 16 Points
    Wales lose with 2 bonus points = 17 Points (Wales go through #1)
    Fiji have 16 Points (Fiji go through as they beat OZ #2)

    Australia lose = Exit stage left
    Wales win = Go through #1
    Fiji = Qualify #2

    I think that is right but happy to be corrected.
