I disagree that England are over-rated. They won a grand slam in the northern hemisphere and beat everyone of note in the southern hemisphere. A great year. What more can they do? Granted they tied up NZ and made it difficult to play, but then thats sport you play to your strengths not your opponents.
Granted NZ will walk over every team in the tournament except Australia and England. Both games will be immensely tough and will depend on the kicking brilliance of Wilkinson and the lethal english wingers. The supreme ability of Spencer, if only he could kick. Don't discount Australia, they probably have 2 of the top 4 flankers in the world, along with the best scrum half.
I'm so looking forward to it. Took friday off work to watch the opening day, a day of rugby and beer life can not get better.
