    Maybe I missed your point here but the article was posted on Aug 10th and you would have agreed with most of it then. By no means is it a post saying we are going to win it now.

    I felt this before the tourny, but I didn't want to say anything because people would have laughed - and they are still going to laugh.


    We can do it. It's very possible.

    Beat France, Beat Argies, beat scotland, beat SA and then meet OZ in the final

    We have played two very physical teams but I don't think the players have used up much of their tanks.

    Two big performances and its all good :)

    although he is still some way short of the achievements of one Joost van der Westhuizen, Peter Stringer is probably the best scrum-half in the world

    :eek:

    Geordan Murphy is in fine form and although he is still some way short of the achievements of one Joost van der Westhuizen, Peter Stringer is probably the best scrum-half in the world.

    :rolleyes:

    Even in August it was still an overly optimistic view.
