[QUOTE="TRF C A Iversen, post: 429274, member: 12312"] Being Number 1 in the world is not "nothing" compared to a world cup. In World Cup year it comes second by a long way to the World Cup. The year after it probably narrowly comes second to the World Cup, but after that you can't dwell on it and say "everything else means nothing". You have to worry about the year to year business of trying to win everything else. The Tri-Nations, the end of year tours, the Bledisloe Cup, the Lions Tours and anything else that comes the way of the All Blacks are all important. Just because something is the most important thing, it does not make it the [B]only[/B] thing. Also, despite the tragic and on-going things that've plagued the people of Canterbury, we need to be realistic. As a nation we must of course want to win the world cup and a lot, but winning it will only put a smile on peoples faces and a good feeling in their heart for so long. We're rebuilding our second biggest city and the world cup is completely unrelated and irrelevant to that. [/QUOTE]
