TRC 2016: Matches not involving Australia

[Hugh Jarse]

Beaugan Barrett grabs a meat pie off a clever grubber from B Smith.

NZL lead 24 - 16 after 37 minutes.

 

[Inside Shoulder]

to my unbiased eye the ABs are putting 2 blokes in the side of every ruck

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Sanchez replays with a PK (he is 5/5 so far) to bring the score back to 23 - 19 after 38 minutes.

 

[KOB1987]

The Pumas have done well but they've come out at a million mph and are already running out of gas. As much as I'd love to see them get this scalp I think they will implode in the 2nd half.

Nah, that's illegal ;-)

 

[Hugh Jarse]

9 PK against the NZL team so far.

I recall that Sir Clive's Soap Dodgers at their prime in the RWC 2003 leadup targeted 10 penalties for the whole game. NZL need to lift their game.

Sanchez misses a PK and it is oranges with the score at 24 - 19 top NZL.

If the BILs tours are shortened and the Argies keep up their form, I reckon you boys will be waiting 16 years for the next cash injections.

Man, maybe the Boks aren't as bad as everyone thinks if the Pumas can play like this.

later in brisbane we will truely know

 

[Brumby Runner]

Am I right in thinking the Argies have scored more points than the Wallabies did in two tests, and just in one half?

kerans just admitted that, tears about to flow off camera

 

[Gnostic]

Argentina showing just how woeful Australia have been over the last 6 tests. Larkham should be taking notes. That is actually how to attack, you know our team actually going PAST the gain line, passing the ball in front of the receiver, who can actually catch it and more importantly having support players in place to receive the ball.

 

[Highlander35]

ARDIE ARDIE ARDIE!

Yeah, but in the game thread v the boks the question was asked - how come the soup team of largely the same blokes is barely competitive?

 

[FrankLind]

ABs look rattled. This might be history...................

I think its called national pride

 

[Wilson]

Argentina are really embarrassing the commitment of our players and the quality of our coaching.

This may sound like QLD bias, bit I really miss link right now.

 

[teach]

Ruthless call by Shag to drag Smith and Coles. Seems to have worked.

 

[KOB1987]

You'd think they would have that there too though. It's not like there's 4 other Argentinian sides..or 1 for that matter!

 

[kiap]

Argentina have done well here and showed some endeavour.

But let's not overrate what we're seeing.

They're still going to get pumped by a large margin.
