Fiji, Tonga, Samoa (I hope the refereeing improves for them though)

I also have a soft spot for Georgia and Japan - really passionate about rugby and I really like Argentina.

As a NZer the teams I respect (fear) the most are France and South Africa, so if the ABs can't win the whole thing they'd be fine.

France may peak for this tournament. Terrifying team to play.

As always, "Not South Africa". Wept openly when they got up on Saturday.

Also cheering for "Not Wales" & "Not France" too.

This is a bit rich given that Samoa is basically playing an NZ B side.
