Argentina v Australia Sun, 7/8/2022, 5:10 am

Too easy for the Argies so far

Not sure either coach will be happy with the defensive effort.

 

[molman]

That'll do.

Cripes we are going to have to be technically accurate with this whistle blower.

Don't you recall him from our last years Northern Tour. Pretty sure it was the Wales game from memory.

 

[Wilson]

Argies have heard the hollywood scouts are in the crowd

 

[dru]

Chucking balls deep to no one, taking the tackle and not forcing the pass when close to your line. Would have saved him needing to pull off a strip.

That one pass to Koroibete? Looked like a set play where either the set was too slow or wide overran the play. But yeah it was messy.

 

[Marce]

Another penalty at the breakdown??? Come on!

 

[Marce]

QC (Quade Cooper) didn't release as the second tackler

 

[dru]

Another penalty at the breakdown??? Come on!

They've got to play the ref. Quade needed to release.

 

[Wilson]

Beautiful kick from Cooper

Piled on pressure when you need your experience heads helping relieve it. Tbf, he's starting to warm into the game.

 

[Marce]

Valetini ay ay ay

 

[dru]

Beautiful kick from Cooper

And a brilliant run. He's defending at 15 and has taken some good high ball.

 

[molman]

Why boys. Need to be more accurate, build some phases.

 

[molman]

And a brilliant run. He's defending at 15 and has taken some good high ball.

You can see some of the cohesion missing though, Fraser was a shoe in on the inside.

 

[Lindommer]

Doncha just hate pedantic referees who let us know they can find instances of every law in the book to adjudicate? A very stop-start game with far too much whistling from the ref.

 

[Marce]

Slipper :facepalm:

 

[dru]

Seriously, territory is completely determine by the ref in this game.

 

[molman]

This guy is going to call everything.

 

[dru]

This guy is going to call everything.

Doesn't seem to be a lot of ball in play for a test.

 

[Wilson]

This guy is going to call everything.

With Matera and Lavanini playing for Argentina that will hopefully work in our favour by the end of the game.

 

[Marce]

Too many unforced mistakes
