- The winner of the Match in which the two tied Teams have played each other;
- The Team which has the best difference between points scored for and points scored against in all its Pool Matches;
- The Team which has the best difference between tries scored for and tries scored against in all its Pool Matches;
- The Team which has scored most points in all its Pool Matches;
