Our team breaks down every match, with the best <a href=\"https:\/\/bettingsite.com.au\/rugby-union\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">rugby union<\/a> bets, value lines, and the latest odds.<\/p>\n<p>Canada v Scotland<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, September 6 \u2013 9pm AEST \u2013 Sandy Park, Exeter<\/p>\n<p>Pool B\u2019s top spot is on the line as Canada and Scotland clash. Both sides are unbeaten, but Canada\u2019s huge points difference (+100) gives them the edge. Sophie de Goede continues to be a force with ball in hand, while Scotland\u2019s Evie Gallagher has been a defensive rock. Expect a physical battle where Scotland can keep it tight on the handicap.<\/p>\n<p>USA v Samoa<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, September 7 \u2013 12am AEST \u2013 York Community Stadium, York<\/p>\n<p>The Eagles must win big \u2014 and with a bonus point \u2014 to keep their faint quarter-final hopes alive. Ilona Maher has been immense at the breakdown, while Keia Mae Sagapolu Sanele has battered defences with her carries. Samoa can\u2019t progress, but they\u2019ll play with heart. Expect USA to go all out for a statement win.<\/p>\n<p>Wales v Fiji<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, September 7 \u2013 2:45am AEST \u2013 Salford Community Stadium, Salford<\/p>\n<p>Neither side can qualify, but both will want to finish their campaigns on a high. Wales have struggled to find attacking fluency, while Fiji\u2019s flair has lit up moments of their matches. Kolora Lomani\u2019s footwork could be the difference as the Fijians chase a memorable scalp.<\/p>\n<p>England v Australia<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, September 7 \u2013 5:30am AEST \u2013 Brighton &amp; Hove Community Stadium, Brighton<\/p>\n<p>The Red Roses have looked ruthless, racking up a record 92-3 win over Samoa in Round 2. Jess Breach is on fire, while Ellie Kildunne and Helena Rowland keep piling up points. The Wallaroos\u2019 destiny is in their own hands \u2014 one bonus point secures a quarter-final berth \u2014 and Braxton Sorensen-McGee\u2019s finishing has been lethal. England should dominate, but Australia can cover the generous line.<\/p>\n<p>Japan v Spain<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, September 7 \u2013 9pm AEST \u2013 York Community Stadium, York<\/p>\n<p>A battle for pride in Pool C, with neither side able to qualify. Spain\u2019s Claudia Pena has been a standout with her strong carrying game, but Japan\u2019s defensive grit gives them the slight edge. This could be one of the tighter contests of the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Italy v Brazil<\/p>\n<p>Monday, September 8 \u2013 12:45am AEST \u2013 Franklin\u2019s Gardens, Northampton<\/p>\n<p>Neither Italy nor Brazil can progress, but the Azzurre will want to rebound after their gutting loss to South Africa. Brazil have been crowd favorites, celebrating Bianca Silva\u2019s length-of-the-field try against France, but they face a tough task here. Italy\u2019s power up front should see them cruise.<\/p>\n<p>New Zealand v Ireland<\/p>\n<p>Monday, September 8 \u2013 3:30am AEST \u2013 Brighton &amp; Hove Community Stadium, Brighton<\/p>\n<p>Two unbeaten heavyweights collide in Pool C, with top spot at stake. The Black Ferns boast Portia Woodman-Wickliffe, who became New Zealand\u2019s all-time top try-scorer last round, and teen sensation Braxton Sorensen-McGee. Ireland have impressed with structure and resilience, but New Zealand\u2019s speed and strike power look decisive.<\/p>\n<p>France v South Africa<\/p>\n<p>Monday, September 8 \u2013 6:15am AEST \u2013 Franklin\u2019s Gardens, Northampton<\/p>\n<p>Both teams are already through, but this clash decides Pool D\u2019s winner. South Africa\u2019s scrum has become a lethal weapon, while France\u2019s backline \u2014 led by Emilie Boulard and Nassira Konde \u2014 has been clinical. Expect a bruising contest, with Les Bleues\u2019 class tipping the balance.<\/p>\n<p>Women\u2019s Rugby World Cup Round 3 multi tips<\/p>\n<p>Scotland +28.5<br \/>\nUSA -58.5<br \/>\nFiji win<br \/>\nAustralia +44.5<br \/>\nJapan -3.5<br \/>\nItaly -60.5<br \/>\nNew Zealand -28.5<br \/>\nFrance -21.5<\/p>\n<p>Round 3 Women\u2019s RWC multi bet<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bettingsite.com.au\/tips\/\" class=\"contentLinkBtn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sports betting tips<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n                    &#13;<br \/>\n                    &#13;<br \/>\n                &#13;<\/p>\n<p>                            &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; The final round of the Women\u2019s Rugby World Cup 2025 pool stage is&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":86333,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":["post-119848","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-rugby","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119848","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119848"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119848\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86333"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
