[QUOTE="profitius, post: 949878, member: 41524"] Don't think SA will beat NZ. NZ will be going all out to avoid Ireland IMO. I'm unsure about SA. They've proved nothing yet. I can see Japan beating Scotland. Scotland play a fast type of game which will suit Japan and it will be in Japan so they'll be used to the conditions. If you're looking for a team to spring a surprise then Fiji look like that kind of team. They're big, fast, can score from anywhere and are more disciplined these days. The hard ground will suit them also. I think England will be hard to beat and they could go all the way and win it. France could do anything. They've the talent to go far but are usually a mess. Maybe more time together will help the team gel. Australia will be tough to beat as usual. I think they'll win their group. Ireland are coming into it on a downer with not much hype around them. That's a good place to be. Still, its Ireland so I'm going to expect a 1/4 final loss and anything else is a bonus. Argentina and Wales will both be hard to beat. I think the hard grounds will suit Argentina's style while wales' defensive game is more suited to the European winter. I hope there will be some shock results but don't think there will be besides Fiji. Maybe Italy can catch SA out but its unlikely. Scotland or Japan beating Ireland is possible. [/QUOTE]
