I assume Scotland will have to beat England by a certain number of points to get through. How do teams get a bonus point? Certain number of tries in a match? I've only seen bits and pieces of games. Where's the next WC?

bonus points i think are if you score 4 or more tries or if you lose by 7 points or less

Got to be fair to some nations
they dont have the largest pool of players to draw from

Was reading in the paper that there was a certain amoint of disbelief at Japans loss to Tonga when you consider the number of professional players

Tonga have 1000 compared to Japans 120,000!

Canada 23-23 Japan. That's how it finished.

Italy 27-10 USA is a result too.
