Don't disagree with that. But it'll still the best result we'll have had (touch wood) for ages.
If the Nix beat Perth, I'm not going worry about the fact that they're missing a handful of their first-choice players (Gallas, Smeltz, Burns, Pantelidis etc), I'm going to be stoked that we got over the line. Particularly given the season we've had so far. Similar for the Black Caps.
