Tries, and lots of them.
This second round always shaped as a weekend of one-sided contests.
It started on Friday with a combined 112-0 scoreline between the Samoa vs Wales (76-0) in the women's tournament, and a 36-0 win by Tonga over Lebanon in the men's.
Today has continued the trend so far, with Samoa's men demolishing Papua New Guinea 64-6 and the Fijian women continuing a tough day for the fans in Port Moresby with a 40-4 win over the Orchids.
And, as we speak, England has emerged from the half-time break leading France 36-0 in Perth.
