Despite Sanchez missing that, the Argies have scored more in 40 against the All Blacks than the Aussies could in 160.

Thanks, I just keep getting interrupted by pesky customers! I swear Barrett has a super power. He can manipulate probability. How else do you explain bounces and chips and 50/50 passes always going his way. slothrop fucked around with this message at 09:32 on Sep 10, 2016 |

Jerusalem posted:Loving this game, hope Argentina can keep it up and the score doesn't get blown out in the last 20 minutes Yeah, since (and including) the 2011 Rugby World Cup quarters, the All Blacks and Pumas have played 9 times, and in 6 of those, the margin between the two sides at half-time has been single digits. On average, the All Blacks tend to pull away in the second half by about 20 points or so, although the last test between these two (a pool stage match at the World Cup last year) finished with a 10-point margin.

Jeez listening to the AB's coach after halftime it sounds like we're in for 40 mins of NZ beast mode. This is going to be a brutal half no matter what way it goes.

I wonder how the ABs will cope without Cane's grinding. Savea's more of a fetcher, although their tackle count in the Super Rugby at the sharp end of the season was around the same.

I'm pretty sure most of halftime is spent greasing him up or something, he just slides off the dudes tackling him like they can't get a grip! Edit: Welp! Don't give up Argentina! Double Edit: Don't DIE Argentina!

One day there will be a technology that will allow you to mute a specific commentator. When that day comes, I will buy it, and I will mute Greg Martin. e: bad tackle by Folau, could be sent off for this. ee: very lucky there, guess that evens out the neck roll non-yellow.

First time this year we looked like a Rugby team. Still some pretty crappy stretches but much better than before. I like how SA are playing now, they might not be as effective sans the Du Plessis duo, but they are definitely more likeable. If Faf De Klerk really weighs only 66 kgs, he should get a VC every time he steps on the field.

I am really missing Bismarck Du Plessis. Feels like saffa rugby isn't the same. I had to fight with my partner to watch the game. He wanted to watch AFL

Do the French deliberately try to have the worst pitches in rugby? The Toulouse pitch is shockingly bad.
