Springboks v Argentina Twickenham

[ACT Crusader]

Finally.

[ACT Crusader]

Need to score here Argies.

[stodders]

No. Arm. Tackle.

[ACT Crusader]

Late and no arms. A canon ball head first

[ACT Crusader]

That was their chance.

[ACT Crusader]

That missed penalty……

[stodders]

Argentina have been much better.

Difference has been the Bok scrum. Until teams can neutralise it (either by not dropping the ball or having a good scrum themselves) it is a banker out for SA as they are so adept at winning scrum penalties.

[ACT Crusader]

29-27 Boks.

That missed penalty

[Jet]

Argentina were hatcheted.

That ref is a joke.

[W32]

Terrible performance by the world and rugby championship winners. I guess we will take it

Ref has opened his other eye at scrum time now.

Boks LH was offending for ten minutes before that.

[Jet]

World Rugby need to get a grip on the sport. It has no credibility as a contest anymore.

The man in the middle arbitrarily decides who has a better chance of winning most weeks now.

Too unbiased?

Moodie should have been sent.

He bottled it completely.

Didnt even give a penalty, as to give a penalty would acknowledge an infringement occurred and he didnt want to put himself in that position.

Cowardice pure and simple.

God, do you ever shut up?

[sparky]

Great comeback by Los Pumas, but not quite enough.

Yeah, I think the ref bottled it a bit so the Springboks got lucky today.

But they've been the best team across the tournament as a whole and are worthy winners. Well done to the Springboks and their supporters.

I think adjudication (refs and TMO's and the laws they are tasked with enforcing) is at an all time low qualitatively, be it from a fairness perspective and enjoyment perspective.

We are being served up a terrible product.

I think France will really test this Boks side

France will have a rock solid scrum, an excellent back row, one of the great players of all time at Half Back and pace to burn out wide.

I rate the South African lineout and kicking game more.

But it will be one hell of a Test match.

I think DuPont is out. On today’s performance, France will win.
DuPont is over hyped though
