No real upsets on the weekend but there were a 3 games much closer than expected, England, Tonga and France were all strong favorites going in to the weekend. Australia dealt with NZ and the absense of Luke and Inu was unforgivable. The French had a tough time with our boys but scored twice in the last 10 to make the score a bit flattering, Tonga V Ireland was the game of the tournament so far closely followed by England V PNG where PNG nearly pulled off a massive upset against the much fancied english.
