Tony Woodcock equalled the All Black record held by Kees Meeuws for most yellow cards in a career with his third yellow card.

Like the 2011 tournament, the IRB rankings will play a pivotal role in proceedings with the top four placed sides at the end of the international window set to be kept apart in the draw. All 12 of the automatic qualifiers will be seeded based on their ranking and then split three bands of four teams. Band 1 will be made up of the top 4 automatic qualifiers Band 2 will be made up of the next 4 automatic qualifiers (5–8) Band 3 will be made up of the next 4 automatic qualifiers (9–12) Band 4 will be made up of the remaining due to qualify places (Oceania 1, Europe 1, Asia 1 and Americas 1) Band 5 will include the remaining possible nations (Africa 1, Europe 2, Americas 2 and repechage Winner) Following the final matches on 1 December 2012, the 12 teams automatically qualified were seeded thus: 5 Pot 1 1 NZL RSA AUS FRA Pot 2 5 ENG IRE SAM ARG Pot 3 9 WAL ITA TON SCO Pot 4 Americas 1 Asia 1 Europe 1 Oceania 1 Pot 5 Africa 1 Americas 2 Europe 2 Repechage Winner See also End of year rugby union tests 2012 mid-year rugby union tests 2012 Emirates Cup of Nations 2012 International Rugby Series 2012 Māori All Blacks tour of United Kingdom 2012 Namibian Tri-Nations 2015 Rugby World Cup References External links 2012 end-of-year rugby union tests at ESPN 1161 2012 Castle Outgoing Tours 6 May 2016 Welsh Rugby Union Rugby Football Union Planet Rugby 2012 Category:2012–13 in European rugby union Category:2012 in Oceanian rugby union Category:2012 in North American rugby union Category:2012 in South American rugby union Category:2012 in South African rugby union Category:2012–13 in Japanese rugby union
