[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 789472, member: 72205"] It works and it doesn't relatively any of the current top 8 nations would expect in 2019 to go through their group (yes even France). The group of death was caused by Wales dropping to 9th in world rankings and therefore badly seeded. Argubly if you make it to the top 4 you should win your group and avoid any of the other top 4 by the semi-final's but it never works out like that. So yeah they key thing to worry about is France's freefall and if they bebound in 3.5 years or Scotland being actually resurgent against the other Tier 1 teams. Us getting in the top4, just means we probably won't be playing one of the top SH nations at the group stage. Is the draw before or after the AI's? I'll throw in a standard comment of the draw should not be done for another 2 years yet. [/QUOTE]
