Pumas v All Blacks

[booboo]

Bizarre is right Nisbo

[Tordah]

I can't believe it but I might actually hope Australia hammer these diving fucks in Twickenham next week

[Derm McCrum]

And there we go.

The headlines from this one will make for good reading.

[Stargazer]

Not a bad result, considering we've played 20 minutes with 14 men. I think the All Blacks could have beaten them easily if they'd played the full 80 minutes with 14 men.

We did beat them easily

My comment was about playing with 14 men for 80 minutes.

Peyper was good in the first half but woeful in the second. That was a terrible exhibition of rugby, niggly shit, penalty avalanche, tmo blindness, Hollywood dives... Yuck. No all black positives in the last 30 mins.

[Nepia]

So after that display, will even the biggest of Fatty Savea's fluffers admit the guy is out of form?

[Tregaskis]

Crudes on the post match show (which makes the e channel look hard hitting). Looking like he's taking some French fashion advice with a dapper grey jacket.

ALB at blindside flank did OK in the scrums

Is George still buff?

Cartoon version but yes, swinging through trees is great for the old UBS.

Hoping to catch a replay later today but fuck me, may as well not bother by the sounds of things.

[Frank]

Can we have instant yellows for blatant Hollywood shit?

I'm serious.

[Donsteppa]

On the plus side, the Argentinian reputation for being tough rugby players in tatters...

[Tregaskis]

@Nepia Savea got a lot of ball in the first 50 and looked slow and way out of touch. No gas on the outside. I've been willing previously to massage his perineum as well.

[taniwharugby]

i think as shit as that 2nd half was from our POV, it probably sets us up much better for next week than if we had kept on rolling and put 60 on them.

[Billy Tell]

Dire 2nd 40.

I don't understand why Crotty was pulled for DMac. Surely keep the midfield that was on fire together, put DMac at 15, and put Smith to 14??

I learnt nothing from the 2nd 40, but ALB was all-class in the first 40.

Also, I am just waiting for Akira Ioane to leap ahead of Squire and Dixon. They are filling a gap, especially Dixon.

I'm serious.

Didn't they bring in specific "laws" this year to address that shit?
It may be difficult to judge during the game, but I reckon the post-match adjudication could easily make some landmark calls to cut that shit out.

[Siam]

To muddle cliche: rugby was the loser in that last 40 minutes

[Frank]

@Kruse

Also have after the match citings to really clean it up.

[Chris B.]

A game ruined by Joe Moody. It's been about 20 years since you've been able to get away with cuffing someone across the head, but...fucking props.

Then, to make matters worse we had about 15 minutes of repeated scrums that only a fucking prop or ex-prop could enjoy. Fucking props!

Jam Moody's head in his locker and give everyone in the team a turn at kicking his arse. Elliot Dixon and Liam Squire can each have two kicks, because they probably missed 20 minutes of their test careers because of him.

30 minutes of my life I won't get back...
