Short answer: I dont know. I understand Cheika is ultimately responsible for the results, but he is not a magician and some of the guys' performances have been shocking. I think we're having a very bad streak and the game vs England was rock bottom. Hopefully. I for one wasn't particularly worried vs Samoa and i am not worried about Japan. I will be worried if and when we face Wales. I think Wales' style can hurt us a lot. They are quite good at exploiting other teams' unforced errors and we tend to do a lot of those. Their territory management is also better than ours and with a decent kicker that can be v dangerous.
I look at our players vs theirs and i don't feel like they've got better names. We need to take it up a notch and i am not sure we're up for the task. Not in 2 weeks at least. Hope, i really, really hope i am wrong.
Before the world cup, had you asked me, i would have said i'd rather face Wales/Fiji/Australia in 1/4s, in that order.
Careful of what you wish for.
