Can los pumas take on the mighty all blacks up front? Will king boff kick them to a half time squeeky bum time for the kiwis? Will Dmac light up the field and shut down all his detractors? Will we see a different haka tonight?
Find out later!
Head, heart and arse requested before the match please.
Your head being your rational prediction. Your heart your longed for. And your arse your 6 pints deep wild take.
Head: New Zealand by more than 10. Heart: Argentina by 1 with a conversion in the red to seal it.
Arse: New Zealand to be over confident, rocked by two quick Argentinian tries and a very good lead at half time. New Zealand to reorganise in the second and force their way back into it for a nail biting finish.
Arse.
Think I’m watching this an hour delayed tonight. We shall see
Head: NZ by 20 Heart: Arg by 5 Arse: early red for NZ with a draw at 80. Boff with the winning penalty
I was hoping for more of a contest here
And this with Richie Mo’unga having a rough day at the office.
Tomorrow more of a contest I should think
I don’t think I’d bet on that!
They messed up the draw for the pools. The four in form “semifinal” teams met in the quarters.
Absolutely, watching the two games on Sunday it was like South Africa and France were playing a different sport
Yeah, it’s too bad. Every QF was electric, which is great, but It really feels like France and Ireland should be in the semis
I was thinking about that some more. I’ve been a bit anti the draw in the past because it was so lopsided. But; there’s something to be said for doing the draw at least 2 years out. It makes test matches in the first 2 years of a World Cup cycle mean more. We want the tier 1 teams to try to be the best in the world all the time, not just from 18 months out from a World Cup.
Was hoping for more of a contest, though I think we all knew what was happening in this match before it started.
Think the try before half time ended the match as a contest, in as much as it could be described as such.
Shut up Fitzpatrick! Talks a load of bollocks and repeats what the others already said.
Yeah, he’s looking increasingly out of his depth. A bit like Woodward and McGeechan
2 minutes in, Argentina looking slick.
Managed to tune in live, only 5 min late. That they are from the 3 I’ve got. Long may it continue!
Commentary trying to explain where there were no blue jerseys over there, but I didn’t understand it.
Whatever it was Reiko Ioane did to set that up, I think that’s my sexual orientation.
Finally blue get a ruck turnover. Maybe it won’t all be one way traffic.
Pens and knock ons costing them really heavily this half
Knock ons from wonky passes.
Smith: Fuck you taking the ball out of the scrum before I say so. Guess I’ll just score the try myself.
MOTM Telea?
Missed the announcement. But a fine choice imo
No announcement yet. Just my guess. Yours?
Hard to see past Will Jordan for me
Finisher finishes. That 3rd try was something tho.
Go blue! Go blue! Nice move!
Ending with what you expect sadly. ABs warming up for next week it feels here
“Sadly” LOL.
I do wish it was a little closer tho.
