    Is that a piss take? I only read the bolded bit earlier. Stick up for your teammate that is committing a professional foul? Izzy set upon three-to-one? Ummm it was three guys trying to get the fucking ball off him. Very surprised Izzy wasn't sent to the bin for that, very cynical play in his own 22.

    @NTA said in Wallabies v Pumas, Perth:

    That's an interesting list - assume it hasn't been updated with all the weekend's games as it still lists Cooper having 5.

    Still, a card every 10 Tests is pretty back from an inside back. You'd kind of expect the list to be populated entirely with back rowers and the odd lock. Check out Jamie Cudmore: 6 yellows in 42 Tests (38 starts).

    Habana, being a winger, might cop a few for being last-ditch defence and conceding cards in the red zone.

    Also it says "The count for yellow cards is for single yellows for a player. Two yellow cards in a match are recorded as one red card."

    Does anyone know if the red cards in the list (Bortolami, Kolelishvili, Hines, Koyamaibole) were double-yellows or straight red?

    Good old Jamie Cudmore. What's not to like about a hot headed Canuck who eavesdrops on opposition forward huddles, get's sent off frequently and who makes his own wine with crazy labels ?

    He should be every Rugby fans favourite player by far.....

    The best part is his nickname is "Cuddles"

    Another thing that hasn't really been pointed out: attendance was a bit over 16k in a ground that holds 20,500

    Bit of a worry for the ARU, who have put in a shitload of resources to save a badly flagging franchise

    Not that I'm aware of. Definitely no AFL finals. And of course, no NRL. Those are usually the two biggies.

    A mate of mine lives in Perth and was offered a free ticket but turned it down.

    I find his lack of faith in Australian and Argentinian Rugby disturbing.

    I noticed that for the NZ Argies match in Waikato it wasn't sold out either.

    Pretty surprised at that.

    Maybe it had something to do with the Hog Worries being poor during the Super season.

    I'm pretty certain The AB game was sold out, and pretty early on

    @nzzp Yep, I'm sure only Greenzone (standing) tickets were available in the week before the test.

    23,500 attended - stadium holds at least 25k.

    I thought it looked rammed too, so I was surprised when I read that.
