Any thoughts on Tri Nations Rugby???

- Start date
kickserv,
With all the other sports going on at the moment (AFL NRL MLB World Cup etc) I really haven't followed the Rugby Union much in recent weeks.
I did see a TV show a couple of days ago where they previewed each of the games and here is some of the comments they made:
New Zealand vs Fiji
New Zealand will win this and probably by 40-50 points. Fiji have made some fairly strong comments during the week that part of the reason they are not a top rugby side is due to lack of support from the main nations. They also said that the Haka has been a bit weak in recent times.
Australia vs France
Last week Australia won the first test 29-17 in a match dominated by stoppages and lack of discipline. France blamed the travel factor for their lacklustre effort but should be more settled this week. Australia should win this game by 10-20 points although France are always unpredictable.
South Africa vs Argentina
They only spoke briefly about this match and the general feeling is that South Africa should be too strong. In saying this Argentina have been going ok in recent times and will be quite competitive.
Best value
I don't think there is any great value in these matches. If I was going to have a bet I would probably lean towards Australia at the spread.
