[QUOTE="spartan32, post: 951920, member: 72322"] Not sure why everyone’s giving a monkeys about rankings. Doesn’t add up to a whole lot when it comes to the WC. So Wales go in ranked 1. So what? Does anybody see them turning over NZ? Maybe on their very best day, with NZ getting rattled, but let’s all be honest NZ are consistently the number 1 team, and are nearly always the team to beat. Below them going into this RWC I would suggest that Wales, Ireland, England, SA are all pretty level, and the Aussies are always a threat on their day. Plus Wales never hold the mantel of “favourites” very well, so not sure it will do them any favours. This is probably one of the most open RWCs in years. [/QUOTE]
