In the event of a typhoon hitting during the knockout stages at the Rugby World Cup, the All Blacks could be on their way home via a points countback. The All Blacks and England highly likely to meet in a semifinal, at which point the unlikely scenario could come into play. With both the All Blacks and England's last pool games called off due to Typhoon Hagibis, it leaves England on 17 points and the All Blacks on 16. If the weather was to play a part in the Rugby World Cup semifinal, England would be declared the winner on the basis of having more points than the All Blacks after pool play.
