Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

[Jaguardo]

It was reported in Argentina match write up that Tepai Moeroa scored the last try.

"The Argentine team's points were made through tries by Joaquín Oviedo, Santiago Carreras and Francisco Gorrisen and two conversions by Domingo Miotti, while for the Australians Len Ikitau, Tom Wright and Tepai Moeroa scored tries"

At the end of the video you can see the last try of Rugby Australia Selection

Any talk of a second warmup to give the quarantining 13 some kind of pre-Tri Nations hitout?

 

[Derpus]

Maddocks is pretty unlucky not to be playing tonight IMO. He's way betterer than Banks. I can see DHP getting in ahead of him but i don't think it will be for long.

I heard that they were planning to do two more warm-up games before playing the All Blacks, although they will probably do two groups among the 45 pumas that are in Australia because there is only one free weekend left before the first official game.

Desr lord people are uninformed.

The Japanese clubs just returned to training. They have not player since March.

Do you not read?

I have a life outside of following the status of overseas domestic rugby competitions. My post was a three word unpunctuated (joke) thought posted in the middle of the night on a supporter messageboard, not a whitepaper presented to SANZAR. You need a girlfriend.

Don't be so sensitive petal.

Some of us like to be informed before we post.

Others seem to give no heed to facts and post bullshit for the sake of it. We seem to live in a world now where there is very little equity in facts.

Again, it's just a rugby forum. Go outside for a bit

Done. Even caught a fish. And cooked it. And ate it. Been reading since dinner. Just so I don't end up posting bullshit anywhere and making a fool of myself. Try it some time.

Not so sure about that

I like that so much Blue, nice to know some actually try and post what they have a reasonable idea is sensible!

Next Saturday, November 7 at 3:00 pm (AET), in Leichhardt Oval, the last warm-up game of Los Pumas, before facing the All Blacks for the Tri Natons. They did not specify the opponent (last weekend they were expecting to play against a reinforced Waratahs team and found themselves playing against an Australia XV, so they would not be in a position to speculate on the eventual opposition, perhaps)

Wasn't sure which thread to put this in, here will do. The 4 SANZAAR partners have committed to the RC for the next decade. Big news.

And the Boks were meant to be here for TRC as well.

So let's believe that when we see it.

Does that mean there is no chance of including Fiji or Japan within the next 10 years and possibly aligning to the Nation's Championship that was touted recently. Or is it a commitment that they'll stick with Sanzaar and decisions be made from there

Would’ve loved a AUS, NZ, JPN and FJ Rugby Championship

It doesn't stipulate, it just says they have committed to playing in it for the next decade. I don't see why it would preclude new teams from coming in.

Has anyone heard of another Aussie A game being played? Have heard of some player call ups so assume there will be another game v the Pumas?

Anyone know who the ref is for the Argentina/Aus A game is? Very poor effort by him up to the first break. Is it the much over-hyped ref who came from WA and had charge of some of the SRAu games? Consistent if it is, I'd have to say.

Conal McInerney having a strong game while Tomas Cubelli has two tries for the Argies.
