Some interesting picks. Would be interesting if he picked again post world cup. Hooper over Savea is laughable.
I think how good Ardie is currently will be a surprise this RWC to many non-NZ fans

I reckon this wc has come at a perfect time for Ardie
Career best form, ready to rip, the stage is set ,
comparisons may be made to Michael Jones at the finish of the tournament, he is in that type of form.

Some interesting info for those of you who like me, are getting impatient for this RWC to start...
Highest attendance: 89 867 - Ireland v Romania, 2015 at Wembley Stadium, London

Thought it was a pretty odd game to be the highest.
The other one that jumped our at me was the 5x drop goals in one game.

Probably not that surprising given it was the biggest Stadium, and probably slightly lower prices than some if the premium games.

One that came up last week on The Captain's Cup podcast on radiosport with Kirk was most team tries in one tournament. He wondered whether 87 was still the record. Would be interested in tracking that down.
Also, it woukd be interesting to compare 2nd and 3rd to 1st on some of those lists.
I looked at some records a few years ago, pre-2011, in a bid to convince myself that the ABs were actually still the best ... despite the record ... and even then it quite amazing how far ahead the ABs were in the matches won, point and try scoring records. And that was then.

2019 83% 20 from 242018? 35 from 40 is 87%, unless it’s supposed to be 35 from 50 which gives the 70%

so our RWC conversion success rate is 72.7%
Most overall tries scored: 311, New Zealand
Most overall conversions scored: 226, New Zealand
It doesnt really tell us what our overall % is thought, while you can work out the points scored from pens in RWC for NZ, you dont know how many were attempted/missed.
Although you would expect penalty success rate should be much higher than conversions given you dont always take them when offered.
