Argentina Two: Newcastle, 28 November

[Tim]

Some good tackling and clean-outs. Back line attack looks pretty tepid.

Lordie that 40m went fast!
I wouldn't take off a forward for at least the next 20 min. Maybe a back though..

So only 10-0 up but if they keep the pressure on..

[Frank]

Will Jordan on for Jordie please.

[Tordah]

Argentina had nothing but a maul. Not even defending terribly well, just OK. Somehow only 10-0. Very weird match.

WTF. What happened to the penalty?

Fucking agree!

[nostrildamus]

@Tim Caleb and ALB playing well.

[bayimports]

dominated that 40, but only 10 in front.., many improvements though. Actually retaining our own ball at the breakdown has been the biggest improvement in general. Shame about some weird kicking options though when maintaining pressure, just looked rushed

Good thing we got that super coach from up north.

I would take BB off and move JB to FB

Not tepid. Useless.

We have nothing other that some set piece dominance.

For fuck sake. Fozzie needs to invest in a spray bottle to spray Coles every time he's on the wing.

You still convinced it's coles's idea and not a tactic. Shame you never saw Sean Fitzpatrick play

[kev]

Hopefully they reduce kicking in 2nd half.

They have created lots - points will come.

The game thread is dominated by people who think the game is 40mins long.

Has Jordie ever bust through a tackle?

Once. When he was playing backyard footie versus Beauden.

(Almost got that wrong. Don't hurt me @booboo )

Que?

Its certainly not a great backline

[akan004]

We need a BP win, we get a chance to attack again but we are happy to go into the sheds. Never knew they were this dumb.

[nostrildamus]

@kev I don't mind kicking if it is done well, and creates pressure, but it is a little off and they are kicking when they have overlaps..

We aren’t getting much in attack from our midfield so our 10,14 and 15 are taking matters into their own hands. Not always taking the best option.

Shame we’ve left a few points out there. Overall the defensive pressure and ruck work has been top drawer.

[Damo]

We played well in first 20 minutes. OK in secong 20. Not enough points obviously.

Strongly suspect we will run rampant in final 30.
