Gardner not allowing any slowing down by Argentina.

Which is suiting us.

@Victor-Meldrew he made a couple of errors in the opening quarter but been better since.

I'm liking coles again was not impressed he'd been selected but he has wound the clock back

[African Monkey]

@Victor-Meldrew He has his critics but has been his usual self. He's been solid enough.

Gardiner is 100% right .. Pumas not supporting weight ... but come RWC... this area of the game is likely to be very much dependent on ref interpretation

[Duluth]

Good to see a ref give a YC even though the try was scored

Totally. What a dominant half

[Donsteppa]

Brilliant.

Doubly so for happening in front of the Argentinian ferals. They can't even use lasers today.

Aaron Smith remembers he is Aaron Smith

Loving the forward play , boks next week will tell us more though I guess

[Victor Meldrew]

This is like England in November but better. Just hope we don't have the last 20 forward fade we saw then.

[Stargazer]

The RWC refs have all just returned from a ref camp in France. I hope to see this kind of officiating become the norm.

31 zip at the break.

Nice

Fakatava-like

[antipodean]

Genuinely didn't think 120mins of TRC would play out like this so far. Impressive.

[Tim]

Nice, Frizell is having a great game. Not tested at all on defence though.

[Billy Tell]

@Victor-Meldrew said in Argentina v All Blacks:

Frizzell doing well at the back of the lineout. Haven't watched for him in general play though.

His work rate has been excellent. One of the ABs best.

[Mattasaurus]

Best opening 40mins from an AB season in years.

Forwards are doing very well - core duties are being done 1st and providing backs with plenty of excellent front foot ball.

[Unite]

Great half!

All Blacks all in black boots which is a change from past few years.

Has been the difference, Argentina just can’t adapt to Gardiner where our players have had all SR to adapt.

[sparky]

Most ruthless and dominant half of AB Rugby since…..
