2015 Rugby World Cup Pool C

Main article: 2015 Rugby World Cup

Pool C of the 2015 Rugby World Cup began on 19 September and was completed on 11 October 2015.[1] The pool was composed of New Zealand (the title holders), Argentina and Tonga – who all qualified automatically for the tournament due to finishing in the top three positions in their pools in 2011 – along with the top European qualifier, Georgia, and the top African qualifier, Namibia.

After winning the first three of their matches, New Zealand became the first team to qualify for the 2015 Rugby World Cup quarter-finals.[2] After Tonga loss to New Zealand in their last Pool Match, Argentina became the second team from Pool C to qualify for the quarter-finals.[3] New Zealand eventually went on to win Rugby World Cup 2015, beating Australia 34 - 17 in the final.[4]
