Stargazer

Great strength from our pack there, stopping that Argie maul.

Stargazer

Haha, I think Hotham needs to calm down a bit.

Chris

Hannah is 4 he has the locks around the wrong way

Stargazer

Cashmore misses the first kick at goal. 0 - 0

Stargazer

Bartlett has the dropsies. Dropped a fairly easy ball there. The conditions are wet again, for those who aren't watching, although it's not pouring down as much as last Friday.

Stargazer

The Argies dominated the Ozzies in the scrum. Good to see that our U20s don't give way.

Stargazer

That's the second time our no. 5 gives away a penalty.

The Argie ten kicks and hits the left post.

NZ struggle to get out of their 10m, but then get a penalty. Argies offside.

Stargazer

Handbags. Our no. 7 isn't happy.

NZ penalised (angling in the scrum?); another Argie penalty.

The Argie 10 nails this kick at goal.

0 - 3 Argentina

Stargazer

Now Argies penalished. Cashmore kicks at goal and ... nails it.

3 all.

Stargazer

Another shot at goal, and Cashmore adds the 3.

6 - 3 NZ

Stargazer

Awesome kick from Godfrey!!

50:22

Stargazer

Good defence from the Argies.

Stargazer

Good attack from the Argies, but then pass to Hotham, who unfortunately knocks on. Argie scrum in our 22.

Crazy Horse

Geez I have caught the last 10 minutes. Hasn't been pretty, culminating in a NZ yellow card.

Stargazer

Dominant scrum from NZ, but Argies get the ball out in time.

Tip tackle, with our no. 7 the main tackler; Bell involved, too, but pulled out.
Argie player lands on his hands, but ref says shoulder.

Our no. 7 sent to the bin with a yellow. Lucky, with other refs it could have been more.

Argie 10 kicks the penalty and its 6 all.

5 minutes to go in this half.

Crazy Horse

And we quickly knock it on. Disappointing rugby so far from us.
