Pumas v Wallabies 2

[Crucial]

Aussies ball shy and tackle shy going by those highlights.

Man aussie commentary is a hard listen. Is there a school for it? I see James Slipper has embraced his pasifika roots and become Sli'ipaaaaaaaaaa

[chimoaus]

Is that their biggest loss in Argentina? Looks like Argentina might be a good challenge for us.

Petaia does have Bridge like abilities at times.

Fuck Mehrtens is even more of a tard than Marshall.

Stop it, is that even possible ???

[Bovidae]

Maloney always sounds like someone at the pub commentating. OK for sevens, but not so much for tests.

It's a league thing isn't it? This 'manufactured excitement' by yelling out a name or word and lengthening it as long as possible.
Ar-gen-TIIIIIIIIII-NAAAAAAAAAA!
In close games or big moments it can work but when done continually it just doesn't seem 'rugby' to an old man like me.

Fucking terrible. Wright and Petaia the worst out of a fairly ordinary back line, and some bizarre refereeing to boot

He spent years catching Marshall's shit. It's a habit.

Biggest loss by a large margin. It was biggest loss before the last try

That not held call went both ways though, bizzarre as it was.
To be fair, the call would be easier to make if the ball carrier had to release the ball irrespective of being held.

Rennie trying to out Foster, Foster.

Jesus. I want Aust to be strong. Losing is ok but a 31point thrashing. I hope they can come back in their next 4 games. Not win esp against the ABs but at least keep it close.

Always annoying when Petero Civinoceva got the ball.

[Tim]

What the hell happened here?

[Nepia]

Jesus there were some head scratching ref moments in this match.

Not sure much can be read into that scoreline.

I think we'll take our business elsewhere, but thanks for the offer...

[MiketheSnow]

Some very dubious reffing in favour of Argentina, but they were deserved winners

Good. You don't pay me enough.

Agree. We were immature and impatient.

But the refs will be having a couple of "oh shit" moments during their review. Overall I thought Dickson was decisive and fairly good.
