Surely NZ are in with a shot and Samoa & Tonga could put out strong sides capable of an upset.newman said:I dont give a sh*t about the world cup.
Australia will win easy .

It is dressed up as an world comp but everbody knows that is rubbish.
The standard of league is often dreadful and the scores resemble cricket matches..it does not nothing to promote league and is a piss poor attempt to mimic the Rah Rah World Cup.
The players would be better off relaxing in a proper off season and coming into season 2008 fresh and revitalised.

Australia will win easy and the melbourne cup is pathetic.

I mean people who would even consider bagging the tourny because Australia walk walk it in, which won't be the case.. you'd never go to the cricket in Australia then, the Australian cricket team smash eveybody in Australia.
All Kangaroo internationals should be about celebrating Australia and enjoying foreign RL players coming to our shores.
Being a world cup, we should add in wanting to be good hosts to a whole bunch of foreign teams.
