All Blacks great Richie McCaw says there is nothing between the All Blacks and England and couldn't pick a winner between the two sides if they were playing this year. In the 2015 tournament, the All Blacks, Australia, South Africa and Argentina made up the final four with hosts England failing to get out of pool play. It's now at a point where McCaw couldn't pick a winner if the All Blacks were facing England, a match which won't take place until at least the end of 2018. "You look at South Africa losing to Italy, Wales and England, the Aussies losing to England, New Zealand to Ireland. If England go through the Six Nations unbeaten they will break the All Blacks' recent tier one record of 18 test wins on the trot.
