Argentina v All Blacks
-
@TJ 🤣🤣🤣 first series loss to Ireland. At home. First loss to Argentina. First loss to Argentina at home. Should have put Scotland away by 20mins in. England should have lost by 25. Almost lost to Japan. Probably should have lost to Australia. Team chopping and changing. Blokes out of form in. Blokes playing out of their skin, nowhere. No combinations. Foz as head coach has the inspiration of a ngat. We've earned the right to whinge.

Same as against England on the EOYT but hopefully without the brainfarts and forwards going to sleep after 60 minutes. Keep the pressure up and don't go to sleep.
As our scrum has been pretty good, I'd imagine they'll try and use that and the driving maul near the line. DMac's kicking has been good in SR, so perhaps we'll be better and more confident in that department (is key as @MiketheSnow points out)
Expect Narawa to do a Telea and cause all sorts of problems for Argentina

Obviously first time together but just interested to see how they mesh.
They're all pretty experienced players now as well. Tempting fate, but both DMac and Reiko look way more solid and mature than a year or so ago.

The amount of Allblack wingers who score on debut is unreal.
I expect Emoni to get a double.
Wont get to see the game as I’m going to the red hot chili peppers in Madrid.
Off to find a bar to watch SA v AUS now before hand.

@mariner4life I spent a holiday at Marina del Cantone down there. It was rather good, not least the food.
Surprising number of Michelin stars down there.

Fuck playing games in the Americas. Nothing but garbage poverty countries playing the game, and the worst time zones.
The stadium is named after the "Malvenas" - what are rightly known as the Falklands!
Your trash country tries to invade the equivalent of New Caledonia, and you get your asses kicked. Yet, you still try to romanticize it. Pathetic. 40 dictators in a century for a reason.

Hopefully some “Exocet” clean outs from Josh Lord later. If you know you know.

I can forgive that. Inspiring Lloyd-Weber to write a musical about one? Nah
