Here are the results and standings after Round 1 of 2014 deVere Cup played on April 20th. Gentle Mushi *39-17* Moccos (7 tries to 3) All France *25-19* Dandelions (5 tries to 3) *tournament rules:* A win earns 4 pts, a draw 2 pts, a loss 0 pts. More than 3 tries difference over the opponents earns 1 offensive bonus point. Loss by 7 points or fewer earns 1 defensive bonus point (same as French Top 14). * Then the standings at the end of Round 1 are:* * 1. Gentle Mushi 5 pts (1 Win, 1 Offensive Bonus (4 tries over)) 2. All France Rugby Club 4 pts (1 Win, no bonus) 3. Dandelions 1 pt (1 loss, 1 Defensive Bonus (loss by 6 points)) 4. Moccos 0 pt (1 loss, no bonus)* (Now you understand why we insisted that you did not let them score that last try in order to preserve the 3 try difference and the bonus point ;p ! Anyway, wins are more important than bonuses! Great victory. We need to beat Gentle Mushi in three weeks time! *Round 2 (May 11th):* *Gentle Mushi (1.) vs All France (2.)* *Dandelions (3.) vs Moccos (4.)* JP
