A measly 80 minutes this Saturday is all that stands between Wales and France from being the first nation booked into the 2011 World Cup Final in Auckland.
Say what you will about them, the French are still standing despite what was looking like being an embarrassing effort for Marc Lièvremont's outfit. And what a difference a week makes as talk of them having a slim chance of taking England is replaced by many using the phrase 'coin toss'.
I'm one of those as a strong pack combined with a dash of class out wide meets a Welsh team that doesn't seem to have many weaknesses at all.
Some may wonder how have Wales got this far.
Let us go back to Poland if we can for a moment where they spent a chunk of their pre-tournament training. According to one Polish journalist, the Welsh got through approximately six training sessions per day in Spala due to using their cryotheraphy facilities in order to recover faster. And like Leicester, who also adopted this venture during their successful period of a few years back, it seems to be paying dividends for their squad. Case in point, the noticeable change in physique of Adam Jones.
There is no doubt they deserve a place in the final too and will maybe count themselves grateful not to have beaten South Africa in their opening fixture, when the statistics showed them being on top. Such a trend was reversed this past week for the Boks though, but let's not re-open that can of worms. Back to my point with Wales in peak physical condition and are ultra confident because of that fact, led by a leader who will soon need no introduction.
Whispers during this week from their camp have hinted they will be adopting a much more contained style of play due to this being a RWC semi-final. Whether they are bluffing or not remains unclear but it seems strange to change what has been a successful mindset when few teams have been able to deal with it. France, despite edging England, are not firing on all cylinders by any means as lapses by Ben Foden and then three defenders going after Alexis Palisson instead of doing the defensive math was ultimately the difference at Eden Park. And wouldn't it be so typically French for them to under-perform at this key stage?
Speaking of which, the French do seem to be enjoying their current underdog tag and will have no qualms going into this one with many backing the Welsh. History begs to differ with the bookmakers mind you as they defeated Warren Gatland's side 28-9 only a few months ago in Paris while Lièvremont's record against their rivals has a winning percentage of 75.
Coaches and players alike hate history though and one tends to side with them at such a stage as this is a different Welsh team than the one playing in March. We shall see if they can make some of their own history by making a first final. Then it really is heads or tails.
