Better performance... But poor from Pumas tonight

We made them look poor. They played as much rugby as they did last week, but we were more disciplined and vastly more accurate.

We just smacked them by 50 in pretty average weather.

I'd agree that one swallow ain't a summer, but you really can't put down a 50-point win to poor opposition any more than you can a 25-18 loss to the same opposition.

Nice option from Ardie to put Beaudy into the gap with the "second man play".

Mods I think Ken Laban has hacked Antipodean's account

[Mackerzzzz]

Great win by ABs. Played very well.

Now expecting media to cream themselves and foster for a week until they loose to Australia, then back onto the sack coach wagon

[Hooroo]

Ha ha. Montera didn’t shake Coles hand. He just gave another shove.

[Damo]

Was that an Argie refusing to shake Dane Coles hamd and instead shoving him in the shoulder??

Very poor form if it was.

[sparky]

Take the win and the good performance, enjoy for a few hours.

Worry about Oz and the Bledisloe tomorrow.

Good win but we’re the Argies really bad or we we’re very good .

I suppose we will have to wait and see.

I think they weren't quite up to it but we were better. If we come up against a great team I think we'd be competitive but yes we still have some weaknesses. And Jordan and Clarke weren't blemish free. I thought Rieko had a stormer and hopefully they won't take Samisoni off for 60 or 70 in tight games. But Coles>>>Taylor.

Did anyone else see Matera shove Coles when they were shaking hands? Coles must of upset him pretty bad for him to do that.

Best game I’ve seen Reiko play as a centre. His decision making has been sound.

Rieko has been awesome at centre in a number of games for the ABs, MOTM performances, but it seems it'll take people a while before they fully acknowledge how good he is there now.

Matera always had a latin temper

Don't fucking over think it

They were as good as we allowed them to be

We played well. Enjoy it!!!

I am fucking trying until I see Fosters face.

[MiketheSnow]

Well done NZ

Well done Foster and Cane

A much improved performance

Aggression and accuracy with some classic AB counter attack play, and more importantly space creation from first phase

Big step in the right direction in poor conditions and against a side which can normally bring you down to their level

It's crap. What happens on the field stays on the field. Things like eye gouges or other really foul play excluded.

No he hasn’t but he was wonderful tonight.

Cane 59% winning record as captain.

Lol I don't blame him, Coles would be a fluffybunny to play against

Fortunately he's our fluffybunny

Yeah, he should be cited for his head butt, then whacking him after the game, rather than shaking his hand. What a fluffybunny
