I admire your optimism but the better teams will still get through generally, they're better for a reason! What it would mean though is that we'd see more 'big' matches early on I suppose but I don't know if that's something I want to see early on or not. I guess it is but then it just guarantees one of the bigger sides will be in the QF's!
