Best points difference in the competition

I think our creativity is fine and momentum 'appears' to be building nicely.
That's fine. I'm posting my views, feel free to post your own.
First side to qualify - slightly dependent on scheduling, don't you think?
Only side with maximum points - have played Tonga, USA and a very poor Argentina.
Join highest points for - see previous.
Best points difference - see ermm...pre-previous?
Just scored six try's against a tier 1 opponent - I don't feel that Argentina can truly be considered a tier 1 nation on their showing over the last couple of years. I'd put them in upper 2's along with Italy.
I feel there is a genuine lack of creativity, and very little increase in momentum.
Don't get me wrong, I have tipped England before the start of the tournament due to the extreme conditions and the depth of the squad. I just don't feel they're showing anything that hasn't been seen (and countered) before.
