Kiwis will win the RWC too easy.. finals Kiwis SA, NZ by 20 points
For the Kiwis and South Africa to compete in the final one of them would have to come second in their respective pools. The likelihood of that is almost an absolute zero.
One of Australia, England or France is a pretty much given for the final and it is pretty much given New Zealand will be there from the other side of the pools with bells on.
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
I would pick
Dagg/muliaina
Guilford/jane
Gear/maitland
Kahui/fruen
Sbw/nonu
Carter/cruden
Cowan/weepu
Read
Mccaw
Thompson
Thorn/williams
Whitelock/boric
Woodcock
Mealamu
Franks

That's 24 haji, who would you drop? Who would you bench?

They also said that they would easily win RWC 2003 in france.. The nation went in to state of shock after their departure, there is no doubt the AB's are favourites in every world cup, but can they handle the pressure?... History says they can't!...

Beau looked badly injured this evening could be out for a few weeks.. he would be a handy back up to Poe
Charles, Slipper, Robinson, TPN, Moore, Longbottom
Sharpe, Horwill, Wykes, Mumm
Pocock, Robinson, MCalman, Elsom, Higgenbotham, Palu
Genia, Phipps, Burgess
Cooper, OConnor, Giteau, Faingaa, Beale, Ioane, Turner, Gerrard, Sheperd, AAC, Vuna
there are my possibles/probables
havent considered Mitchell as i dont think he'll be match ready, otherwise Hodgo and McCabe might get a look-in as part of the extended training squad.
