Argies have some confidence, running it from their ingoal, but there was one hollywood from Sanchez a while back (tackled in air) that still stops one from supporting them wholeheartedly.
Yeah, I know. I think some of that shit would disappear if they started winning though..

Is Tuculet injured at the moment?

Oh, and after that ”nearly fucked up the try” dive, getting hit in head accidentally, and saffa coming back and saying ”sorry, yeah, fucked that up”... still clutching the head and checking for blood.
Fuck that.
And yeah, winning should fix that, but it seems like it will take a generation of winning. -
So is that the RC mostly done? We win BP home and away against the Argies, and lock it up unless the Saffers destroy us with BP both times?

Argies grow an arm and a leg at home. They are a good side to watch when they go wide.
The Boks however weren’t creating space for their outsides by just shovelling it sideways.

Rugby Championship: All Blacks' concussed duo good to go against Argentina
The All Blacks have been bolstered by news that Ryan Crotty and Sam Cane should be available for selection for the next test against Argentina in two weeks' time.

I've only seen the highlights but the Arg backs really exposed the SA defence out wide, as Eng did too.
Looking ahead to the NZ and Aust games, SA will be abrasive up front but their wingers only look good with the ball.
I'm surprised the ABs aren't asked to play in Mendoza or Cordoba. Much tougher to win up there.

Well played Argentina.
No one saw that coming.
Also rans in the summer to worthy winners here.
