RWC: ARG v SA - 3RD-PLACE PLAYOFF

[Dewald Nel]

I reckon the Pumas will fancy this game. Surprised so many are writing them off.

Like the Boks. But it's hard not to be impressed with how the Pumas play. On a dry track, if they can get their nose in front, they might just hold it in the last 20.

50/50 at this stage IMO. Especially with Pienaar starting. If Paige can come on early then we have a chance.

I reckon I have a better chance of all the above before you will see Pollard offloading to de Allende who puts Kriel over in the cornet.

Probably not even seen at uncontested training sessions....

Talking to a Saffer mate today, I remarked that how is it that the Boks can have such a gun midfield and still not play any footy. His answer was predictable: Meyer and his tactics. They should be world beaters these blokes and yet they never really got out of second gear.

I think the Boks will hammer the Argies into submission today. Boks by 15.

They are saying that Meyer planned to give all the second stringers a run but the stalwarts went to him and said they wanted to play. He agreed to that so let's hope that the second part to the story was that he gave them free reign for the game plan. These guys could open this thing up, I'm looking forward to it.

The two longest anthems in international sport?

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Los Pumas look up for this.

Stupid penalty. Not like it's the first time that's been carded this tournament. It wasn't even in the red zone.

Thankfully Genia got away with that last week without getting a yellow.

What the hell was that card for, not allowing the tackler to play the ball. And how about an effing replay of the incident.

Pretty average tackle attempt to let JP in

Was for not being back 10 when the quick tap was taken.

This is going to be a blowout.

Huge forward pass missed in the build up there.

 

[Hell West & Crooked]

thats Habana... claiming tries he know he hasn't scored...

 

[Chunderstruck]

Haha Wtf! Ball was completely out and Herrera just stood over it like a hen

 

[Dewald Nel]

Our scrum gaining parity. Didn't expect to say that.

 

[JJJ]

I still want to know how you deal with it when one side doesnt take the weight on the engage.

 

[Hell West & Crooked]

there is an interesting shift in momentum taking place here...

 

[Inside Shoulder]

big step down in pace from last week

Argentina really need to learn to support line breaks better.
