Rugby World Cup 2015 - Pool A Betting

Each of the pools at the 2015 Rugby World Cup contains five teams with two top seeds joined with three lesser nations, Pool A is perhaps the most exciting of all the sections with the host nation New Zealand and France clashing early on. Also in the group are the tough Tongans as well as Canada and Japan who will be looking to learn from their four games in New Zealand.

The top two teams will progress through to the knock-out phase of the tournament and there is no doubting that the All Blacks and France will be hot favourites with the bookmakers to full those two spots. The Tongan team can be dangerous on their day but are likely to come up short against the big boys while Japan and Canada look weak on paper and will be looking to the game they play against each other for their big moment. The All Blacks will be formidable opposition as always but with the added help from home support they really will be tough to beat, they of course open the tournament and the games in Pool A with their match against Tonga at Eden Park on the 9th September.
