And there could be some shock exits on the cards.
Which teams have been knocked out of the Rugby World Cup 2023?
Pool A
Namibia mathematically can no longer secure themselves a quarter-final spot having lost all four of their Rugby World Cup Pool fixtures.
Pool B
Romania’s 84-0 defeat to Scotland confirmed their exit from the France tournament
Tonga are also out courtesy of a South Africa 49-18 pummelling.
Pool C
Georgia’s marginal loss to Fiji sees them go crashing out of the tournament.
And Portugal will be on the plane home with the Fijians following their defeat to Australia.
Pool D
Chile’s fate was sealed when they were hammered by England 71-0 to make it three consecutive losses at the Rugby World Cup.
