[QUOTE="Tricia McMillan, post: 449960, member: 51138"] With the rate the smaller nations have been improving (which was unexpected for me at least, because since 2007, I've only paid much attention to the southern hemisphere's top teams, i.e. watching Tri Nations and Super 14-15), we haven't seen anyone put up 100+ points in a match. Closest we've had so far are the Springboks putting up 87 against Namibia, and the All Blacks scoring 83 against Japan. I personally have a feeling that the barrier might not even be broken this time around. Which, to me, is a good thing. The more competitive rugby nations there are, the better. This isn't some old boy's club like cricket (sorry, had to take a dig at the ICC there). Do you think it will be reached this tournament? [/QUOTE]
