Pumas vs All Blacks

[Siam]

Really pumped for this game. It's become huge, given the circumstances and personnel, and is a must watch.

Argies won the stats in Nelson and that sort of stuff makes for good motivation for a team wanting to be the first to beat NZ. Chuck in a rabid crowd and froggy irrationality and fuck, we're going to have to perform properly, with acumen. There's also a point to prove given the shit game management last time.

Quite excited

Ardie at 8 could be interesting. More room to play.
Getting closer to his real number as well.

We haven't had a game day replacement for a good while have we?

The injury that ultimately derailed Keith Robinson's 2007 RWC was a game day scratching an hour out from one of the June tests - have we had one since?

How shit is that Luke Whitelock guy now...

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Christ if I'd known we'd get 10 minutes of trumpets I would have stayed in bed a bit longer.

[Rapido]

Looks quite weak on paper, that bench.

[raznomore]

best anthem music ever. A mixture of a Speedy Gonzales score and The Barber of Seville.

More operactic haka than usual. The hissing from the crowd his great for the over all spectacle

[JC]

Naholo 2 mistakes in a minute. Gulp.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Excuse my ignorance but why was that a penalty?

[JC]

Clever from Sanchez to aim for a guy sitting on the ground and milk the penalty. 3-0 Argies.

[Stargazer]

Okay, thus far: two shit throws from Taylor; Naholo not catching the high ball and Frizzell pinged for tackling a player while on the ground. 3 - 0 Argies

[Stargazer]

Riekoooooooooooooooooooo!

[No Quarter]

I guess if you're not on your feet then you're meant to he out of the game? I've never seen it called before.

[JC]

Beautiful try, Naholo did the hard work.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Wow. That was boner inducing

[kiwiinmelb]

Need to get some ball and build some phases ,

Oh ok , or score a try

Can't tackle while on the ground.

[raznomore]

thats a thing of beauty
