[QUOTE="saulan, post: 985434, member: 60236"] Dropping out of the top 8 is the biggest concern. Remember there was a pool that had South Africa and New Zealand in the same pool at the last World Cup, Italy was the unlucky 9-12 that drew that straw. There was also France, England and Argentina, granted Argentina didn't pitch up in the end really. (Also Scotland, Ireland, Japan) The other side of the coin is that you could get top 4 and then one other high performing team has a bad year now and puts you in a group of death. Nothing you can do about that. You can just improve your odds of not having a group of death by getting top 8. [/QUOTE]
