WALES JUNE TOUR: SA IN DC, ARGENTINA
-
Gatland true to his word
"We said we wanted to involve everyone and give them a chance to at least be a part of the 23," Gatland said.
Shame about Parkes, but great opportunity for Watkin to stake his claim.
Big ask to leave Gareth Davies out of the 23 but both Aled Davies and Tomos Williams have impressed this tour and season.
Pack looks technically strong and mobile.
Plan to run the Argies around.
Really looking forward to this.
If Wales can go 3-0 on the road whilst playing 2nd and 3rd choice players it bodes very, very well.
If Wales lose, the tour has still been a massive success.

So Landajo at 9 the only change.
Let's hope the same cattle produce the same steak with no sizzle.

Full time3 wins on the road is a magnificent achievement.
Loads of candidates for MOTM but my MOTM and Man of the Tour, Ross Moriarty.
Played every minute of every match.
Going to be a very long Championship for Argentina
-
That last few minutes with Moriarty's red card were truly unreal
Moriarty has an Argie player in a choke-hold, the assistant ref and match medic telling him repeatedly to let him go as the Argie player is turning blue, and the fuckwit keeps choking him until his hands are prised off said Argie.
Truly bizarre.

He was obviously so awesome that he still played every minute even with a red card! Last minutes he'll be playing for a long, long time

Got sent off after 80 mins had expired.
Sanchez is a little dick.
Stupid move from Moriarty but should have been three yellows, not 1 red.

I hate Sanchez and the diving Argies in general as much as the next guy, but that chokehold thoroughly deserved red. I'd much rather see a punch than that shit
