    You guys are thinking Harry Mallinder. He's strawberry blonde.

    That's beginning to sound like a bit of a crush.

    Has he got a chick in Galway?

    I can't even retort to this because I'll get banned again.

    Great to see ex St Peters College student Denny 'DJ' Solomona in the 23. He was always destined for higher honours since his school days.

    Yep, good player. Plays at Northampton (Midlands club not SW, that's what threw me). Sone of the head coach Jim Mallinder.

    Really enjoying this match.

    Great intent and pace from both sides.

    Difficult watching at times with all the shadows, especially at the breakdown. It's like Rorke's Drift.

    Argentina 17 - 13 England at half time.

    Some good tries from both sides.

    Launchbury having a stormer.

    @MiketheSnow how beautiful was that last try. Silky handling and fantastic lines from the Argies.

    Bit of a lull the past 5 mins. Monster scrum from Argentina. Destroyed England.

    Crowd doing the Mexican Wave. Not because they're bored, because they're going bananas

    That scrum was outrageous, absolutely crushed. Odd that the penalty was for holding on though.

    Brilliant from Ford. Turnover ball converted to a try.

    This is a corker of a match.

    Argentina 31 - 31 England

    Superb defensive turnover from England. That could have been the match

    That's dumb from Argentina. Quick drop goal with 3 minutes on the clock and penalty advantage?

    That'll cost them. They have a habit of losing like this.
