[QUOTE="sanzar, post: 200172"] Well that's just the thing. We've never had anywhere near the player numbers of countries like England, France SA etc, but through good management and a high level of competitiveness within our own limited pool we've somehow managed to stay within the top 5 and have at times managed clear domination as well ('87 we were favourites for the RWC, 91 we earned top spot after NZ were favourites and between 99-02 we the wallbies won every trophy that was on offer). In contrast, England has by far the largest player pool (6 times both Australia and NZ), yet is consistently one of the most disappointing international sides. So player numbers aren't everything. If we can start running the game properly again in this country, then things are destined to get better. [/QUOTE]
