Don't mean to shoot you down mate, but were the US ever rated?

They are trousers and this result proves that the sun shines on a dogs arse some days too.

This result will build expectation, which will all come horribly unstuck at the real thing next year. It will be beautiful to watch too.


i meant everyone has bagged them including myself, saying that they have had easy draws and now there knocking off quailty teams..
