Argentina One: Parramatta, 14 November

[Old Samurai Jack]

No forward battle at all. Argies spread out cos they know how we are going to play., the same as last year and the year before. The ABs were seriously beaten tonight and unless there is a serious change in direction, it is going to be a tough few years.

The irony of all these penalties at the end...

Fatigue. Didn't go to their bench until very late.

[Victor Meldrew]

Seriously, what is the point of playing Jordie Barrett at 14?

Has Fozzie ever explained it rationally?

Well done Argentina, full credit, the better team by a large margin.

Yep. A game of two halfs and the Argies won them both.

Foster will get no wake up calls from anything. Trust me on this as a long time Chiefs fan...

Scott barret at 6 next time...mark my words

And he’ll pick Jodie at 12

[number9]

Our loosies were non existant, I would of replaces the front row at the 55 minute mark. Our backs were bloody stupid, we committed no one to the breakdown until the entire front row got replaced

[Kruse]

Well done Argentina.
A little upset by the All Blacks performance, but the Argies still had to earn the win, and they did. Fucking spectacular defence all game long.
But even more than the first ever loss - the galling thing is that Cheika is going to claim some credit for it.

[chimoaus]

Weren’t Argentina paying 10 bucks or similar? Must be one of the bigger rugby upsets in some time.

Is this the most embarrassing result ever for the ABs?

[Donsteppa]

If Lomax is in our top front rowers on current form then we are in big trouble

[Marty]

World has been reeling AB's in since 2015, this was sadly inevitable. Feel bad for Cane.

[kev]

Both our hookers were disappointing, Jordie is still not a wing, Ardie is not a no. 8, Mounga was inaccurate, Frizzell/ Tuipolotu not providing impact to go with size - lost contact, Reiko not a centre.

We just lost to a team ranked 10th I suggest that has never happened before.

Mounga was inaccurate,

He was poor. Like BB last week

My mate placed $20 on the Argies at $13.

@Tordah said in Argentina One: Parramatta, 14 November:

I always wonder why, when the game is over, or almost over, there seems to be this massive step up in urgency. Why not earlier?

Seems like a team mental attitude. If they aren't up at half-time they seem to panic - unless they score pretty much straight away.

Then it's panic mode and after that, throw everything at the other side.
