Ladders after Round 2 of IC17

NZ and Ireland are yet to play. And one them has to lose that. Pivotal match will be USA v PNG. USA win and they are likely to go 4-0. If PNG win then USA, PNG and the loser of NZ/Ire are all likely to be 3-1. Fiji could also be 3-1. Percentage in that case will be the key. There are other scenarios that could still play out for the teams that are 1-1 as well, so a long way from over.

Fair point, I didn't actually read through the draw again. I've made an edit, adding PNG into the mix again (I had been thinking it would need 4 out of 4 to qualify, but the way the matches have fallen yes 3 and good % may be enough). Yes Fiji and others are still a chance but I'm saying Fiji are unlikely to beat South Africa and Great Britain and have a good enough %. But yes, it's possible. If Fiji can do that then wow, how good are NZ who beat them today 76 to 6 (21 scoring shots to 1). NZ are looking awesome.---

I'm putting my house on the Kiwis.....I'mean Hawks....but yes, massive matches in Rnd 3 USA v PNG, and GB need to pull out a minor miracle to topple Ireland. Certainly expect NZ to be too good for Canada. The question might be more, in the Ireland and NZ matches - might be more about who protects their percentage the most.

But then rnd 4 that Ire v NZ is huge. May well be a play off for a GF spot? Perhaps more for Ireland than NZ. If the USA sneak to 4-0, or US and PNG are 3-1 with good % then the Irish won't want to slip up. NZ I suspect will be less vulnerable.
