[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 774662, member: 55747"] Well, betting odds, which represent people's expectations, disagreed with you. And it wasn't just that they won: They had never beaten NZ before The beat them twice in the same tournament The second game was by quite a margin Well, facts do not seem to support that statement: -Out of the last 5 series, you have only 2 champions (4 NZ, 1 Fiji) -Out of the last 5 series, the top 2 spots have been divided among only 3 teams (Fiji, NZ and RSA) -Out of the last 5 series, the top 3 spots have been divided among only 4 teams (Fiji, NZ, RSA and Eng) Sure, you do have an occasional odd winner or a particular set, which was virtually impossible 10 years ago, but if you look at the big numbers, the dominance is still there.
