[QUOTE="SPIDER18, post: 120983"] thats true but at the moment they are a mess. france doesn't have what it takes and those quoting 1999 it was 8 years ago france aren't the same team. South Africa are obviously dangerous and are on a good side of the draw but they suck away from home. Their northen hemisphere performances since the last world cup have been abismal as for wales and ireland don't kid yourself niether could touch the abs and both would struggle to beat the top 4 (sa aus nz fra). Don't get me started on england they are clearly rubbish. B) the hardest to pick pool will be frances pool. While it would require some upsets i can see france not making the quarters. while i said ireland would struggle to beat any of the top four they have beaten 3 of the 4 in the last two years and france has lost 4 of its last 5 games against argentina. argentina are solid and play within themselves they can kick penalties from fifty and will just keep building up their score if their opponents keep making mistakes. :bana: [/QUOTE]
