Victor Meldrew

Argentina's backline passing is so slow and static. Almost as if they've been coached by Scott Robertson...

Victor Meldrew

I really like the Saffa commentators. No word-wank.

MiketheSnow

SA over complicating things

Dumb penalties, dumb mistakes

Carreras hits another

SA 6-9 Argentina
26 mins

Victor Meldrew

Camera has clearly gone offline. Either that or the producer is pissed as a newt.

ACT Crusader

I don’t mind that at ground level camera angle isn’t too bad.

MiketheSnow

SA props doing a lot of work

SA go direct and unsurprisingly open up the Argie defence

Good team try

Chalked off

That’s fucking shit officiating

MiketheSnow

Should have been advantage

If not that then a definite YC

Victor Meldrew

Penalty against Argentina?

So why no advantage?

Because he knocked it on as a result so they come back for the penalty.

SA in
Catch & drive

Pumas too upright in that maul defence

Ah, OK. Bit unfair illegal action which causes a knock-on rules out advantage. Saffas score so karma comes to the rescue.....

MiketheSnow

SA off their feet in the ruck

Carreras misses

MiketheSnow

Jesus
That’s a crazy try

SA 11-16 Argentina
35 mins

Victor Meldrew

Bizarre try. But spot-on decision

Jet

Bizarre.

He has kicked it over to the poles for his kicker to take the drop out ahahahah.

ACT Crusader

@Victor-Meldrew yeah it’s a strange one but I think it’s right.

What a strange try for the Pumas. Kolbe that was way too casual.

MiketheSnow

Fucking have that you lazy Argies

Fantastic vision and skill

SA 18-16 Argentina
37 mins

Jet

Sasha is class.

Peak Beauden esque.

Victor Meldrew

Turning into one weird Test match....

ACT Crusader

Wheels to burn

MiketheSnow

Jesus

Another retarded SA decision

ACT Crusader

Got to check that. Argies would’ve scored if Marx hadn’t infringed.

ACT Crusader

Boks maul defence had splintered and Marx clearly was offside and joined in the side.

MiketheSnow

Fucking hell

What a half

Argentina think they’re going in at the half 5 to the good with 20 of their points gifted to them by dumb SA play

Marx on YC for first 10 mins of second half

But SA say fuck that and score in injury time

SA 25-23 Argentina
Half time

ACT Crusader

@MiketheSnow and Marx will be only off for 5 minutes of the second half too

W32

This must be the shitest ref in the history of rugby

Because he’s not letting the Boks get away with murder at the ruck and with the offside line….

Actually I would say that he has missed several knock-ons by SA. He seems to be overwhelmed by the occasion

MiketheSnow

Fabulous

2 tries with Marx in the bin

SA 32-23 Argentina
44 mins

MiketheSnow

Beautiful

Kid is on fire

SA 39-23 Argentina
52 mins

MiketheSnow

Sloppy defence from SA

Pumas sniffed it and in

SA 39-30 Argentina
54 mins

MiketheSnow

Unlucky

SA got the ball on a string but just rolls dead

God it's depressing seeing the Sasha at 10 when we roll out Beauden Barrett who's looking more and more like a carthorse. Reminds me of Ireland selecting Sexton at 37 and expecting miracles

ACT Crusader

End to end stuff

This is DC v Lions 2005 level of class shown by Sasha. Unbelievable performance.

MiketheSnow

Fantastic team try

Argentina knackered

SA 46-30 Argentina
61 mins

ACT Crusader

Excellent hands from some of the Boks toght forwards.

Can't disagree. The pack he's playing behind though.......
