The point about NZ is that IMHO they've been the outstanding team in the world for years but have failed to translate all that domination into proportionate World Cup success. I haven't got all the stats but, with the exception of 2003, I don't think England have been all that high in the world rankings over the years yet their World Cup results have been better than they'd suggest.

I have a feeling the Aussies are going to cap a rotten 6 months for NZ.
