I think your putting too much emphasis on try scoring. England can score try’s for fun, but their defence stinks. I’m not sure if we’ve got enough to win the World Cup, but the gap is definitely closing between Northern and Southern Hemisphere. We have one of the meanest defences in the world, we finish games stronger than any other team at the moment, we’re on a 14 game winning streak, we have a solid, very experienced coaching staff and a tremendous squad spirit. All the ingredients are there for a massive assault on the biggest trophy later this yr in Japan.
