How good's this, waking up to a couple of coffees, read the paper and settle in for a 9am test match! And then have a few hours off before the mungoes go at it tonight!

We'll win....easily

This is the biggest match of the year, who will get the wooden spoon. Besides 2011 it's been a while since we expected to compete for top billing so avoiding last isn't unfamiliar territory. With the Argies yet to secure a win in nearly two seasons of the RWC the Wallabies can inflict significant psychological trauma by denying them in what appears their best chance to date.

To do this the Wallabies need to (obviously) avoid scrummaging within kicking distance. But that being said I remember the game against France (2010) when B.Alexander got yellow carded and a penalty try awarded in the first half, our scrum looked utterly useless. The second half the Wallabies ran them ragged scoring from range, at will. The score that day 16-59 to the wallabies.

It just goes to show what can happen when a team trusts themselves and their game, even when the scrum goes to shit. Come on wallabies!! Believe and be ruthless!

Almost like Benny going off left us with a Slipper/Fat Cat propping duo and the scrum improved, crazy ;)

The difference now is that, under the new scrum law, our scrum will be under even more pressure when we have the put in. The Argies would be mad not to exploit this to the maximum. Previously we could pretty much hold our own on our own put-in, now we are vulnerable at every single scrum. I know what I would do, if I were the Argentine coach. Play 9 man rugby.

If the pigs get some go forward and the 9 doesn't hop, skip and jump before passing, and the 10 isn't deep in the box, it's a nice theory. I can't recall any 9/10 combos delivering fast, front-foot ball to the outside backs of late. Would be nice.

Your comments look a little inferior considering that try cyclopath!!

Of course we will win.

After the Schoolboys series and the Darkness v Bokke last night, I reckon the Mungos will put us to sleep.

Only the hyperbolic yelling of Rabbits Warren will keep the punters awake, as he and all the other Fivekick fanboys try to make their game interesting and relevant.
