History has shown that, on their day, England, Wales and Ireland can beat pretty much any team. The problem in the World Cup is stringing together a series of those days by maintaining fitness/performance/ confidence levels and avoiding injuries to key players. I can't see any of the home teams doing that and the same goes for France who are not favourites even though they'll be at home.
