World Cup Day 10
D2.0, there were 3 teams equal, not two, so the tie-breaker goes:
1) Win-loss in the games played between the three teams:
Czech 1-1
Greece 1-1
Brazil 1-1
2) With that tied, it comes to points differential in the games between those teams:
Czech +15 (beat Bra by 22, lost to Gre by 7)
Greece +6 (lost to Bra by 1, beat Czech by 7)
Brazil -21 (lost to Czech by 22, beat Gre by 1)

Great performance in this tournament from NZ. Is there any chance we can get some of their defense and offensive rebounding?


I know this is what everyone has been banging on about, and I'm just Glad Australia completely bypassed the need for such shenanigans,
but the +/- rule seems to be whacked.
Both Greece and Czechs come in on 2 wins.
Greece beats the Czechs, but Czechs advance?
Because Brazil lost their bottle?
Surely with two teams equal, their h2h should prevail?





No I think Brazil just need to win to go through (as they and the US will be 4-1, Czechs and Greece 3-2) and they'll go through as the first seed too as they'll have the head-to-head over the US.


Greece vs Czech finely poised. Greece need to make a run


And scratch the 43 point scenario. Your original statement was right. Brazil have to beat USA to het through. I need more sleep. Sigh

Sorry, scrattch Brazil going through if Czech Republic brats Greece. Forgot USA in the pool!

If Brazil beat USA Brazil goes through
If Czech Republic beats Greece, Brazil goes through as Greece would be 2W-3L
If Greece beat Czech Republic by more than 43, Brazil goes through on point difference in games among the 3 teams

Mine are as follows.
PER vs WOL = Perth by eight
SYD vs NZ = Sydney by six
TSV vs MEL = Townsville in overtime by two
ADE vs PER = Adelaide by fourteen
Who have you picked to be victorious in round ten?
