Frizzel is looking good when running out wide. NMS is a nostalgic selection from 2015.

Frizzel is no doubt doing what he has been asked to do. Give NMS a chance FFS.

How many chances does he need since he last had decent pace?

He still has a hell of a step. Not saying he is definitely the answer, just not ready to write him off yet. You have decided that he is past it and this colours your attitude of everything he does.

If a winger has lost his pace hes a liability to the team

No, he's been good.

[taniwharugby]

why did Naholo come in there?

I think the obstruction is a bigger concern there than the line.

I thought the obstruction was a nothing.

BY not kicking out, losing the ball?

He’s been ok, too many mistakes though

[taniwharugby]

@damo I thought that a tackle woulda been made but for it...deserved a try though

two PK kicks for touch missed. You cannot say he has been good. He's been OK.

[Tim]

Mounga's defence and kicking are both substandard.

[taniwharugby]

to be fair to MOunga, he hasnt played since the Super rugby final.

[canefan]

Seriously though, good stuff giving him a full game. He needs to find stuff out in a real test. I'm on tour in London so no coverage for me

[taniwharugby]

discipline is a bit of an issue for Argentine rugby.

[Stargazer]

Mo'unga's goalkicking is better than BB's. Good game management, some great passes, that pass to Goodhue, just before TJP's try was a beauty. For a guy who had only 11 minutes of test rugby and hasn't played since the SR final, that's good.

[Tordah]

I've never seen Owen Franks be so effective with ball in hand as in that game. Good passing and some runs where he made metres. Whew!

I think he broke a tackle too

[Mokey]

Richie beautiful goal kicking. Just needs to sort out his kicks in play.

[antipodean]

Argentina unlucky to not have maul called when Ardie got back to his feet. Result is a brain fart by an Argie forward and another three points.

I'll say this, Frizzell looking bloody good.

Stop fluffing. No ones saying he’s been bad, just that he needs to reign in the mistakes. You can get away with it against Argentina, but not better teams.
