[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1161998, member: 56232"] I guess real questions need to be asked about the fragility of NH sides when it really matters. Statistically the NH record at the world cup is atrocious and the records against SH sides until very recently was extremely lop sided and has been for a long time. This year was easily the most competitive set of NH sides ever put out (and in general has there ever been a WC with 4 realistic ***le contenders?) but the NH again fell when it mattered. The losses may all have been close but every single one was a loss. Some serious sports psychology work needs to be done on NH teams. [/QUOTE]
