[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1141078, member: 45598"] I agree, they're my winners just didn't really get your logic re making a statement today. I feel like SA needed the big performance whereas Ireland and France didn't based on the last 18 months or so. NZ, I'm totally clueless to, like I think they could bounce back and beat France in a nervy game with something to prove but a bit like us going into Japan there's a clear roadmap to beat them. Yeah, you're going to have to win a QF to contend that's a given and you're contenders until you're not and chokers until you're not if that makes sense! I think if we meet France in the QFs we're busy but I'd fancy NZ. I think Scotland have been done so dirty by the draw, like whatever about Ireland's QF hoodoo, Scotland have to beat a team that they've lost either 7 or 8 matches on the bounce to to qualify. Like Ireland know they can beat France or NZ come QF time, Scotland don't know if they can beat South Africa or Ireland and it's a huge mental hurdle very few are talking about when branding dark horses imo.
