[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 565603, member: 57076"] Dude, your problem is you're far too pedantic in your reading of others' comments. I appreciate your spot-on knowledge man, srsly, but all I'm saying in my comment is we've got 3 nice teams there who share strong similarities rugby-wise that have the level these days (to COMPETE with the bigs). I'm very much aware of their record. For Italy, I was only hinting at their great 1st half against NZ in November, and that very strong performance at home a few years ago when the ref wouldn't give them the blatant pen. try at the end of the game. Remarkable scoreline ultimately...Italy can srsly SHUT DOWN the attack when they click and that's why they'll beat AUS and the likes of those in the upcoming years along with their pack and growing attacking flair. I'm not actually saying ITA can beat NZ, they can't just now but have made some tremendous progress. They've shown they can beat Aus though, just a penalty short of a tie...really happy for Italian Rugby and excited for the decade (2010's). Technically, I meant: France and Argies with potential to beat NZ, definitely enough to beat AUS. And then ITA *could* get AUS, but not yet NZ...they can't win an 80min match against NZ, not just now... [/QUOTE]
