Could the Wallabies spring a surprise?

Gregor Paul wonders about the Wallabies' capacity to cause an upset at next year's Rugby World Cup in The New Zealand Herald.

"There's a growing wariness about the Wallabies and the potential threat they will pose this time next year.

"So what if they have lost 10 in a row to the All Blacks - does anyone really trust them not to lose another two and then beat New Zealand at next year's World Cup?

"It would be so typically Australian to win when they have to - to rip out the All Blacks' heart then dance on it. This is the Wallabies, the masters at pressure football; the sort of cunning foxes who really would deliberately bumble their way through three-and-a-half years just to keep their true World Cup credentials a surprise."
