[QUOTE="TRF C A Iversen, post: 429266, member: 12312"] Sure we have a great chance and we want the World Cup very badly over here.Totally true, but if it doesn't happen this time, there's only so bitter and chewed up you can feel. Some of us will of course be gutted if/when (however people want to phrase it) we crash out. This time though, I think a lot more New Zealanders have been through this before and realise it's the nature of knock-out tourneys. The only thing to turn to if it happens will be the possibility of not being World Champions again, but somehow still being the Number 1 ranked side in the world. If that's how it works out, that might say something about knock-out tourneys that'll make some of us sleep a little easier at night. Maybe it won't feel as good as whoever those world champions might be, but it'll have it's own charm. ;) [/QUOTE]
