[Bones]

Planet Crucial Rugby has selected NMS on the wing in the RC team of the week or some such. Well, fuck.

@bones And to think they ban trolls.

Jesus Christ. I'd pick Owen Frank's at 14 before him.

It appears Argentina have eased their self-imposed restriction on European-based rugby players as of part way through this year.

Here is a link with Argentina's player depth.
If interested look under 'Exiles' for each position to see what players in Europe they can potentially call on.

I'll stick to the ones I know.
LHP: Paz
THP: Figallo & Herrera
Lock: Galarza
No 8: Isa
Centre: Socino
Wing: Imhoff, Cordero

There are also be plenty of uncapped or low capped Argentinians in Top14 or Prem, Pro14 - some of whom are probably top class, but I don't know them.

Figallo is their best TH, then Herrera. Both world class. Massive gap to next ones (who specialise at getting airbourne against ABs!).

At LH, Roncero was superb, then Ayerza also first rate before retiring a couple of years ago. Since then, nothing. Don't know Paz.

Anyone found a kosher replay vid of this game ?

Sometimes YouTube provides

[mariner4life]

finally got around to watching the highlights of last weekend. It's not exactly a NMS highlight reel is it? I know what he was trying to do with that first try, but he didn't have the footspeed to get there (and it was a terrible decision). And then watching him try to get to the corner? jesus, square wheels much?

Argies scored some pretty tries, loved the blind pop in to the hole.

Remember last year when he got that intercept that 99% of test wingers would have easily turned into a try at the other end? It was embarrassing how easily he was mown down.

@antipodean thanks mate, but a big whoosh right over my head. Brain could only come up with "that friend of Charlie Brown?"

All good, as ever the thread commentary has painted a satisfactory picture
