Hopefully

I think Scotland played the better rugby in that series at the start of the year (despite losing 2-1). Some very good tries scored by the Scots in those matches

That was a Scottish team that was missing a few players too

I'm hoping the Latinos get up for this. The Sweeties are getting too cocky. I've gotta get down to BA to see and ABs test. Leave the wife and kids at home...if you know what I mean...

Is Johnson injured ? I would prefer him to Tuipolutu.

Be interesting to see how many consecutive tests most of these guys have played compared with say, Jordie Barrett.

Also good to see Nico Sanchez back. And Facundo Isa. He's a beast.

[Bones]

Awful call. Yellow card. Hit him with almost lower arm.

[MiketheSnow]

Great watch

[Bones]

Not flash from Harris. Game over.

[Jailbreak7]

RCs are so random these days. Crowd loving it, but you feel the match is effectively over as a contest now.

No it wasn't. Player crouching as well as ducking his head at the breakdown, hit with the inside of the elbow. It's a shit call. Penalty only, possibly yellow card if you buy the play acting.

Harris might be wanting the first half over.

[MiketheSnow]

Nah
Harris yes

[Jailbreak7]

@MiketheSnow Dont make me play the Georgian card.... lol

[Bones]

@MiketheSnow said in Scotland v Argentina:

Nah
Harris yes

Yeah. He didn't even consider what the player was hit with. He's going into a ruck, knowing he's going to be cleaned. He's ducked his head to stop himself being cleaned. As you know I'm on your side generally for foul play but this one is out of order..

[MiketheSnow]

Game on

Come on Argentina

[Tordah]

12 Argies score against 15 Scots, hahaha

[Bones]

Ridiculous that Bofelli was also ignored for poty.

[Bones]

Is it also the case at this level that if you go below 12 players it's game over?

[Victor Meldrew]

Fuck me, isn't it great to see some old-fashioned rugby?
