[QUOTE="calculon, post: 441820, member: 54570"] I'm taking a risk replying to this. It's probably flame-bait. Nobody outscores the kiwis for tries. Both NZ and Aus outscore any other teams in world cups. Sometimes France are up close. NZ are way ahead of everyone else. Lewsey was the only truly world class back England produced in that era, and there were legions of Aussie and Kiwi backs that were better. I'm sorry if you see that era differently than I do. I can't alter my perspective. My opinion stands. The only way NH teams have beaten SH teams (in the world cup) is by attrition and efficiency, and discipline. I watched the last couple of world cups btw. I wasn't sleeping under a rock. I'm just trying to answer the OP's question, and I have. [/QUOTE]
