[QUOTE="London_Italian, post: 594974, member: 59285"] I never understand why the smaller sides ever bother to take 3 points against NZ or South Africa. Surely, if you play against NZ, you have to assume that they are going to score a minimum of 3 tries against you and therefore you can't waste rare attacking opportunities by only taking 3 points at most. You've got to go for tries! It's this theory that smaller sides should try and do like the big boys and take 3 points from penalties instead of being aggressive, which means that we rarely see upsets in the World Cup. [/QUOTE]
