Match thread

I think Australia's only hope of winning this game is if Argentina run out of petrol in the 2nd half as they are the better team. Their style of play is great but it can tire them out.

Wallabies down by less than they were last week

Hunter with 2 fantastics line breaks right up the guts and caps each with just brain dead offloads

JA

Montoya is sick of Wilson's nattering to the ref, came through on the audio "shut up c*nt".

He must have up picked some local lingo in Townsville!

Which is why I don't want him near the Wallabies. That and his defence

Can the Wallabies launch back-to-back second half comebacks?

Can Los Pumas close this one out this time?

Exciting second half ahead.

Bovidae

We've seen this movie before. Can Arg take advantage of the HT lead this week?

NTA

We're just not organised enough and we aren't learning what the ref wants

Joseph Suaalii would absolutely walk into a world XV at 13. What a try

Watching, not listening, what was that pen for? Dangerous tackle?

Argentina are a seriously good side.

ACT Crusader

Wallabies poor discipline proving to be very costly. Pumas ruck work has been excellent.

taniwharugby

@akan004 they seem to have a few 'generational' level players out there for them.

NTA

Sorry talk to me about how the ref's having a good game again?

Nepia

That ref needs to spend more time doing reffing drills and less time in the weights room working on his guns.

taniwharugby

I do think they need to be stricter on off sides, how often does a player come up, get called, step back but the damage is done, the play has had to be reset or was simply affected by the guy coming up

NTA

I wouldn't mind that if we were getting treated the same both sides of the ball

Ref has been fine. Wallabies are getting dicked.

Kirwan

Is there are more uninformed crowd in the world than an Aussie crowd?

I remember when you weren't so Australian.

KiwiMurph

Lovely hands JAS

Bones

Love it, get it done quick, keep the momentum. Two more to get.

ACT Crusader

Wallabies have been poor. Their ruck work has been sloppy.

Now they score with the Pumas down a player after a dumb intercept attempt.

I'm team Argie always, I just haven't been impressed on the whole (not for either side) with his performance in this match.

ACT Crusader

Game on.

KiwiMurph

Well well

The best closing side in world rugby coming home strong

ACT Crusader

Shocking tackle attempt by that Pumas player - was one of the loosies I think.

Slightly worrying for the Bled matches as were come home soft.

Kruse

Fuck me... I saw that 1st try in yellow-card time, and thought "1 minute of yellow-card, 1 try... they could get 80 points in the next 10".
Then thought "don't be silly".
Then saw 2 tries in 2 minutes of yellow-card-time.

KiwiMurph

Clear penalty under the rules

Bones

Disgusting reffing. How dare he penalise a wallaby for a ridiculously dumb act of foul play. I see what you Aussies mean now
