According to http://www.rugbyeurope.eu/sites/default/files/document/170217_re_staff_manual_rec_2016-2017_-_add_1.pdf [Source 2] on Page 14 Point 2.4.2 Point 2 Romania has won the entire competition!?

2. Equal number of points at the end of Competition: If two or more teams have same number of points the best ranked will be: • The Union having more number of match points in the games played between the tied Unions • The Union having best difference between points for and points against in the games played between the tied teams • The Union having scored more tries in the games played between the tied Unions • The Union  having  scored  more  points  in  the  games  played  between  the  tied Unions. • The Union having best difference between points for and points against in all pool games. • The Union having scored more tries in all pool games • The Union having scored more points in all pool games — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gorbeh0332 (talk • contribs) 18:08, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Clarification on Rankings / In accordance and respect of the competition 's rules, " If two or more teams have same number of points the best ranked will be : The Union having more number of match points in the games played between the tied Unions" / As the competition is played with a single game between teams, the winner of the game is the best team. So Romania has been officially announced "Champion 2017" thanks to its victory on Georgia. / The update of the rankings on the website requires technical assistance and will be done tomorrow.

Qualification for RWC 2019
According to this article, the winner of the cycle qualifies for RWC 2019 and, in case the winner is Georgia, then the runner-up qualifies. Nevertheless, I've read in a Spanish newspaper that this is not true; games involving Georgia just do not count towards RWC qualification, citing Rugby Europe sources, but I could not find anything at the Rugby Europe site. The wording in the official RWC 2019 site -The highest-ranked team from the Rugby Europe Championship (excluding Georgia) will qualify- is somewhat ambiguous. Has anyone an autorithative source that can clarify this?--Gorpik (talk) 09:02, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
