@Victor-Meldrew I don’t like the word potential. Tooeva

The saffas argument they couldn’t get match fit looking a little silly...this the first game this year for most of these argies
Worked their arses off - not sure if you saw the video of the guys working out in their own apartment or getting their Dad to stand on the one-man scrum machine.

Looks like many of them used lockdown wisely, they were bloody fit, strong and focused.

Missed the game. Thought Kick Off was about now.
Just seen the score. WTF?!
Yeah, had the same thing happen to me. It was 0845 on the BBC website.
Only caught the last 35 minutes. Wish I bloody hadn't.
You're one of the lucky ones - only having to see that little of the game

Shows you how much of rugby can just boil down to fitness, tackling and safe decisions

@KiwiMurph PUJ and..ALB?
We had 4 years of revolving doors at 12/13 in the hope of finding a settled combination and it really didn't go that well.
Foster seems to have stuck with ALB/JG at 13/12 as his top pairing for a few tests now and I think it should stay that way. It's one thing he's actually done right IMHO.

Argies coach in tears, I can’t imagine our guys having this much passion
-
@Victor-Meldrew Just the wrong way around

@Mokey How bad? Twickenham 99 bad? Johannesburg 04 bad? Lancaster Park 94 bad?
2020 bad.
Are Ian Foster and Covid the same thing? Cause Covid didn't exist before Foster was the coach of the All Blacks

Same. Look to the players around them making poor decisions and not executing.

The Argies are generally a likeable team. I used to like them even during the Porta years when he was the only back above 9 allowed to join in..
They got a bit bothersome with lasers and Latin football behaviour but absolutely fair dues to this Ledesmo team. Really smart and obvious tactics turned on and off : niggle early on, target Coles and then, Frizell. Plead with the "scared to offend" ref for as long as you can. Milk a charge down attempt. Then in the premiership quarter, mind your p's and q's to the letter and stay onside, roll away, stay way back last feet - I found myself wondering if my team possessed such discipline, and why not? Finally infringe the fuck just to use up the clock.
And never miss a tackle
Superb strategy and execution and A knock out win to Ledesmo over Foster.
I'm still wondering if my team is capable of such routine discipline.
