Rugby World Cup Competition Number 4
source
So we have completed 3 competitions so far and it is good to see different people winning the Sports tokens. It is very simple and all it needs is a good guess.
The winners so far are @blanchy.sports 15 000, @erikah 5000 Tokens, @niallon11 5000 tokens and @linlee 5000 Tokens. Let us see if others can also get onto the winning list.
The following games are to be played over the weekend with one on Saturday and one on Sunday. Japanese time is GMT plus 8 hours so the cut off time is kick off wherever you are in the world.

The first game is on Saturday at 16h15 local time and is between Japan and Ireland. Ireland are obviously favorites for this game but that doesn't mean it is a forgone conclusion as guessing the score difference is the hard bit. A try in rugby is worth 5 points and a conversion is 2 so that is 7 point sand Ireland should score at least 4 of those to obtain a bonus point. How many will Japan get and how big a divide will it be?

The second game is the game of the weekend as it is between Australia and Wales.This will be a much tighter affair and don't expect one side to run away with it. How good are Australia this year and can they live up to expectations? Wales are no push over and could quite easily win this one. I am glad I am not playing in this as I don't know which way I would go on this.
Place your answers in the comment section with the team that is going to win followed by the number of points difference you might think. Get lucky as there are another 5000 Sports Tokens on each one here. This might not sound a lot but it is the fun of taking part. I always upvote comments as that is a good habit of mine and have been doing that for 18 months on Steem. Even if you don't win you will still get some tokens at least.
Ireland by 14 and Australia by 7.
Good choices and have given yourself a real chance with this now.

Australia 10 Ireland by 16
Good choices and who knows I hope you are lucky.
Hahaha I'm looking forward to the result
Any team that can beat South Africa can beat anyone so I am going to go with Ireland by 7. Wales to win by 5
Only 7. For shame.
Any team that can beat SA can do well against us. Plus Scotland were dire last week. Japan will be better

Who would have thought that they would lose.
I think Ireland should win by more but who knows. Wales could quite easily win and how many will go for Wales?
I'll go Japan by 2 since they're playing at home and Australia by 14
Congrats on getting the closest with the first game so far. This is a major upset as Japan won by 7 points.
Haha thats awesome. One thing ive learned from watching soccer cup games is (despite when brazil hosted the world cup recently) its hard to count out the home team especially when its a close match up!
Has to be Ireland, I'll go with a 10 point win. I think Japan will be tricky. Have to pick Australia by 8 as well.
Should have gone more on Ireland I think as can see 20 point margin on this one.
Tricky was an understatement. Still can't believe they lost. Pressure on now for Scotland as if they lose to Japan they are going home.
Ireland by 16, Australia by 11
I think that is around where I would have chosen as well.
Ireland by 28, Wales by 4
Congrats you nailed the Welsh win exactly. 5000 Sports coming your way.
Ireland by 15 or more and wales by 3 or more. Regards
Japan WIN by 16 and Wales WIN by 8
If Japan win that will be a massive upset. Thanks for taking part though.
Ireland will win by 19 and Wales to Win by 23.
