[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 429385, member: 43875"] Almost true, I think it's more like 3-4 week period every 4 years because it doesn't matter how good you look in pool games and you can even lose a game in the pool stages. As long as you reach the knockout stages then it's all about winning just three games in a row. Quater, Semi then final. Winning the WC doesn't make you the best team in the world, the world rankings do. Heck Ask Aussie which is easier to win, the World cup or the tri nations... They have only won the tri nations [B]2 times in 15[/B] series yet they have won the WC [B]2 times in 6[/B] attempts Same with South Africa - only managed 3 tri nations in 15 but they have got 2 WC's in 6 attempts. Heck ask Aussie which is harder to win. A world cup or the Bledisloe Cup, they can't even get that these days. [/QUOTE]
