Argentina v All Blacks

@Victor-Meldrew said in Argentina v All Blacks:
For what it's worth, Mrs Meldrew, who knows about such things (bugger all about rugby, mind), thinks she's noticed a change in body language from when she saw them last year. Little talking amongst themselves, focussed attitude and minimal emotion. "They look very controlled and together"
It's the black boots
@Machpants its the new Jersey and the 15 fern fronds...

Credit where credit is due. Absolutely wonderful from Ian Foster and his men. Black Magic! I didn’t think they had it in them. More please!

Early days, mate. Been here before in the 1st game of the season but they do look much more like a proper team.
Just hope we continue in the same vein in the 2nd half.

Great half!
All Blacks all in black boots which is a change from past few years.
Sounds like a pub quiz. In which year did the entire ABs team wear black boots?
Reckon it’d be the 90s.

Sco Bo prob needs to start from here on in

Probably fair to say we haven't been tested well on defense yet - but what defense has been required has been executed well. Good numbers to the break downs on defense and attack is very pleasing.
@Mattasaurus I think the few passages they have had they made easy inroads into our defence, but was our scramble defence saved 2 tries.

2015 RWC surely?

I think our midfield is going well. Both running hard and straight, and often when Jordie is doing it RI is on his shoulder. I like to see that.

Credit goes to Ryan I suggest, one of the best forward performances in awhile, and without BBBR and Whitelock.

It's across the board - so far. Backline has been way more incisive and the attitude/headspace thin is way improved.
Early, early days though. Be delighted if we don't fade like we did at times last year.

My names not Shirley.
But yeah you might well be right.

It’s nice seeing JB run straight and hard. Can’t be overdone but it sets up phase ball very nicely.

Can’t argue that NZ came to play
And thoroughly deserve this thumping
But this is the worst Argentinian team I’ve seen in some time

They are a bit like the old France , hot and cold ,
Last year they beat us one week , week later lost by 50

Ultimate long game Sir Foz
Respect
Humble pie eatenA little early for that, I think. First game last year was pretty fucking good too

This.
If you consider the opening charge down, the drop over the line and the save in the corner it could have been different.
Let's not ride rhe highs too high, huh?

I never say no to a ride.
