TIE-BREAKERS:

edit

Does anyone know how the tie-breakers work? If Kenya and Namibia should both finish with 21 points, does Kenya win by virtue of beating Namibia, or does Namibia win by virtue of a better points difference?My Dinner With Andre The Giant (talk) 18:48, 11 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Ranking criteria is as follows:
✓ The winner of the Match in which the two tied Teams have played each other shall rank higher;
✓ The Team with the highest difference between points scored and points conceded in all its Matches
shall rank higher;
✓ The Team having scored the highest number of points in all its Matches shall rank higher;
✓ The Team having scored the highest number of tries in all its Matches shall rank higher;
✓ The team with the least number of suspended players following red cards on the field or citings
during the tournament, and if there is still a draw:
✓ The team having received the least number of temporary suspensions (yellow cards) during the
tournament.
✓ Should the tie be unresolved after steps 1 to 6, the winner will be declared by a Toss organized by
Rugby Africa.
