[African Monkey]

@stodders Wouldn't suprise me. Very dumb from him.

Any and all updates gratefully accepted

[Stargazer]

@stodders Hmm, nowadays I don't know anymore. It depends on how dangerous they consider his landing. I think he landed on his upper back, not his head/neck?

[Stargazer]

First try goes to Argentina. Bofelli stretches his arm out, but was it double movement?

It seems to have been given. He converts his own try.

7 - 0 Argies

[Stargazer]

The yellow card stays yellow.

[Stargazer]

Samoa back to 15 players now.

[African Monkey]

Very willing out there. Both sides very physical in contact.

[Stargazer]

That was a great turnover from Samoa. And then it was almost like they didn't know what to do with that sudden possession.

[African Monkey]

Paia'aua is having a shocker so far.

[Stargazer]

Samoa going for a kick at goal. Leali'ifano misses.

[Stargazer]

Another turnover Samoa. They're going for a line-out now.

[Stargazer]

And again. Now Argies throw.

[Stargazer]

Samoa 12 penalised for being offside. Argies go for the kick at goal.

Bofelli's kick is good.

10 - 0 Argies

[Stargazer]

Argies penalised for jumping across in the line-out. Samoa opt for a kick at goal as well.

Leali'ifano slots the 3-pointer, via the post.

10 - 3 Argies

[African Monkey]

The early Argentina try could end up being a winning score in this weather and with Samoa's non existant attack.

[Stargazer]

Argies hot on attack and Samoa penalised for being offside again. Easy penalty kick for Bofelli.

13 - 3 Argentina

[Stargazer]

The rain is really affecting this game.

[MiketheSnow]

Will suit the Argies

[Stargazer]

@MiketheSnow They're the team who's knocking the ball on more often.

[African Monkey]

Oh FFS Leali'ifano!
