Welcome to WRR 213 for August 25-31. The Rugby World Cup concluded its second round of pool play with several teams punching their tickets to the quarterfinals. The race for the final knockout spot is wide open after a dramatic draw between the USA and Australia, and with final pool standings still to be determined, the quarterfinal matchups are on the line, setting the stage for an explosive final round. Beyond the qualification battles, we saw history being made with South Africa’s landmark win, as well as a flurry of records and milestones being shattered by players across the board. The excitement wasn’t just limited to the RWC, with action from the International Defence Rugby Competition and the Dr Farah Palmer Cup adding to a massive week for the sport.
