It just looks like I'm biased. Just that the wallabies are always underrated and 'tahs were underrated this year.
Aus were a bit better than SA 2 weeks ago, and SA were better than NZ (I watched both games). I'm talking about just the performances of those 2 games. I'm not saying aus IS the best team (I can't rate any of the 3 teams ahead of the other 2). I think all 3 teams are capable of dishing it out to each other, and am thinking it'll probally come down to bonus points again. I don't think you can even rank the teams at the moment. NZ definately isn't the dominant machine the press was hyping them up to be. SA has the advantage of being at home and was a little lucky vs Aus (aus just had a problem converting opportunities into points, SA didn't). I'm just sick of the media forgetting the wallabies every year, or at least underestimating them. It's like how they always overestimate or hype up the ABs. It's the media that is biased. I wouldn't want to be a supporter of any of the 3 teams for a home game.
Talking about the 'tahs, I was hoping they'd pick Dell up. He's starting to play rugby lately. Definately got the best backline now. Not even the canes have that sort of firepower.
