[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 662713, member: 40658"] This! Also, the total disregard of South Africa and how we might go in this tournament based only on the Super Rugby results. I think it will still be the same looking log as last year with regards to the standings, but with the points being much closer. And I also think the OP is a bit premature. If we look at the examples given, then it's clear that the other nations have started to concentrate a lot on DEVELOPMENT. I have seen this first hand in South Africa. But it's a long process, and you will get periods where the top dog will go through slumps... That's just how it works. As a non-NZ'er, I think the Senior team is still ahead in regard with the other teams, with SA coming the closest to them, even though we haven't beaten the All Blacks in more than 2 years. [/QUOTE]
