[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 935697, member: 74121"] So if I'm reading you right you are telling me Italy have a chance!? :p They really are in the worst group imaginable for entertainment and potential upsets - so I'll let you off for ignoring them. Namibia and Canada are potentially the two weakest sides in the tournament in my opinion, possibly by some distance. I do like the whole Japan beat Ireland, Italy beat the Boks (again) and then have a QF clash against a beaten up Scotland. That's a scenario I can get behind for that 1 in 10,000 shot at getting to the semis. I might actually bother to tune in now rather than make a homemade 2023 calendar and gaze at it wistfully. Interesting comparison with football. I think it is fair when you consider Greece won the Euros once and you can get weird football semi finalists like S Korea, Senegal and Turkey. Utterly unthinkable in rugby. [/QUOTE]
