Decent start to the game but errors on both sides.
Had to turn the volume off - commentators are dire.

Another needless penalty from the Aussies.
How very dare Mike Adamson try and speak in his 'broken Spanish' to the Argentine players :rolleyes:
I understand his Spanish just fine and I'm sure the players do too - **** off, you boring ****s.
deserved HT lead 19-10
how poor have australia been
without taking any credit away from the hosts of course
A deserved lead for Los Pumas at the interval - 19-10.
Boff with 11 of the 19 points :greengrin
19-17
Wallabies roll out of sight on the back of the Pumas yellow card.
26-34
Been a decent game on the whole though - Argentina with a good account of themselves.
that was forward shirly
The All Blacks coach's jacket must be on a shoogly peg . He wasn't exactly popular before the current run of results but I can't see him last much longer , they don't like losing they're not used to it
I'm no fan of Eddie Jones, but does he not make a good point here regarding rugby's reliance on privately educated players?

They're down to 5th in the rankings, the lowest they've been since the rankings began.Quote:

Thank goodness Sky have opted for the Australian coverage this week - the commentators last week were amongst the worst I've heard in any sporting event.
it's a demolition
64 mins 36-10 Aussies badly let down my double today ;(
66 mins 36-17
commentator seems to think plenty time left for the wallabies.... 12 mins
surely a record defeat for the pumas over the Wallabies 48-17
Wallabies blitzing the Boks early on in this game 10-0 seven minutes in
10-3, yellow card Australia.
Yellow card SA just before HT.
15-3
What a try from Australia. Wow.
Argentina win in NZ for the first time! 18-25
Boffeli with yet another kicking masterclass. I really hope we can keep a hold of him for this season. He’s an incredible talent.
six defeats in the last eight for the all blacks
manager got a vote of confidence just last week
The All Blacks never really looked like winning the game , coach was already unpopular before the start of this series and I don't see that changing anytime soon . This game was supposed to be the easy one of the three teams , he's definitely gone come the end of the championship
Pre-season rugby at the DAM tonight between Edinburgh and London Scottish - ultimately abandoned because a fan tripped the fire system in the Lothian Stand!
Hard to read anything into tonight, but London Scottish run out winners against an admittedly B-string Edinburgh side.
So nice to be back watching live rugby though!
I think Argentina just annoyed New Zealand last week - they've blown the Pumas away in this first half so far. 17-0 after 20 minutes.
They've not had the best season but they remain the most exciting team in world sport. I first saw them from the old Murrayfield schoolboy enclosure in 1967 and to this day the Haka still gives me the shivers.Quote:

I’m a bit of a Wasps fan so today was infuriating. Throwing away a 21 point lead. Can’t see anything other than a Sarries title win this year as I think Leicester and Quins are slightly weaker this season.
Then Borthwick will leave Leicester at the end of the season, join England’s back room team for the World Cup before succeeding Eddie Jones.
Australia v New Zealand 1045 tomorrow morning for anyone that may be unaware.
Looking forward to seeing Edinburgh lock horns with Saracens in the Champions Cup later this year. Should be a good test of rugby for us.Quote:

All Blacks score the winning try in injury time, brilliant entertainment.
Christ and we think Rantic get all the decisions!
I think if they did that for all time wasting pens it would be great and Foley can't say he wasn't warned but still ...Quote:

Horrible looking leg/knee injury to the all blacks forward
Argentina 3 S Africa 3 after 15 minutes
Penalty try for SA, yellow card for Argentina.
Are the commentators in the Pumas V Boks game in the stadium or are they commentating remotely?
17-6 South Africa
Sounds like it's remotely, still better than the 2 Argentinian guys from a few weeks ago.Quote:

I'm just back from the DAM, for Edinburgh's first URC game of the season - ran out very comfortable winners in the end. Conceded 2 early penalties, then scored 44 unanswered points. And that's still missing a number of players.
Very nice poignant mark of respect for HM Queen Elizabeth beforehand too - a lone piper played Flowers of the Forest, followed by an impeccably observed minute's silence.
Great to have live rugby back again.

on a separate note but linked to posts about the SA - Argentina match, the Australian commentators were so biased, especially when patting Foley on the back for taking a conversion quickly so the ref couldn’t look at the blatant forward pass that led to a try, and even more so with the delay of game penalty at the end, just about it tears and all the whining

Good comeback from Edinburgh against the Bulls - it was 15-0 to the Bulls, but is now 15-14 at ht following tries from Savala and Graham. Ill discipline a serious problem for Edinburgh this first half with 10 penalties, but the Welsh ref has been pretty one-sided, 'missing' a few clear penalties for Edinburgh.
Australia didn't help themselves with yet another couple of sin bins
36 years now since their last win at Eden Park
even playing half of the 1st half with just 14 i thought they were the better side but still found themselves down 17-0 at HT
FT South Africa 38 Argentina 21
Bugger, thought it was safe to read the thread as the last post was at the back of 4, got as far as ht in the South Africa game this morning then sacked it. 😔Quote:

It's not often you get a chance to say this in a rugby match but , New Zealand are getting absolutely battered ATM in this game v Australia in the Women's World Cup 12-0 to Oz after 25 minutes. Game has been mostly Australia attcking so far
New Zealand have finally woken up two quick tries to make the score 17- 12
Another try to The Black Ferns 17- 17 48 minutes
Australia 17- 24 New Zealand , Kiwi girls are on top nowv
New Zealand score again, complete turn around in this game 17-31
Another try New Zealand 17 - 36
One way traffic now 17- 41
Full time 17-41
great result for Glasgow v Bulls 35-21
Two second half tries from the Scottish women's team helped them fight back to 15 15 in their first match in the World Cup , but a last minute penalty gives the Welsh a 18-15 win
sustained pressure from Scotland finally brought the try to level it but i felt straight away because it was down a wing we wouldn't convert, considering our kicker had a 0/4 kicks it was a cert she would make it 0/5,which she did, of course 14-player wales secured the restart then went through(i think) 30 phases before getting the inevitable penalty, boom
next up Australia followed by New Zealand, New Zealand beat Japan 95-12 in a warm-up game last month, eek
it's a shame how things have panned out with Townsend and Russell
Finn Russell: Scotland career 'could be over' after autumn omission - Peter Wright - BBC Sport
Finn Russell's Scotland career could be over after his Autumn Nations Series omission, says Peter Wright.
Ten months from the Rugby World Cup, Gregor Townsend left out the Racing 92 pivot citing "form and consistency", choosing Blair Kinghorn, Adam Hastings and Ross Thompson at fly-half instead.
The pair have endured a strained relationship in recent seasons.
"Gregor's pretty much saying he is not taking Finn to the World Cup," former Scotland prop Wright told BBC Scotland.
Why is the Scotland v Aussies game not on the tv ? :confused:
Ohhhh that try was sublime.
great try Scotland followed by a dreadful conversion attempt by kinghorn
5-0 Scotland, Kinghorn hooked the conversion wide.
didn't last long 5-3
jeezo i didn't need glasses to see that australian line-out throw was wayyyyyyy squint
Playing well here.
Apart from that stupid jambo Schoeman swan diving over an Australian.
It's on Amazon Prime.Quote:

good stuff

good stuff
poor stuff
dreadful stuff
15-6 good stuff
what a silly attempt at clearing out, maybe lucky it's just a yellow
can't blame townsend for players constantly giving away penalties
15-13
that was so embarrassing the ball not getting collected by a scotland player
i've never saw a scottish side give away so many freakin penalties, i think that's about 14 now
15-16
Scotland are poor and don’t have the discipline to win games like this.
what on earth are they line-outs all about
away ye go kinghorn absolutely dreadful kick again
Should have won, deserved to lose
23 points today for Finn Russell in Racing's 43-38 win away to Brive.Quote:

That guy has lost the game for Scotland with two missed easy penalties. Should never take another penalty for Scotland again. Drama queen comment:greengrin but if somebody can’t do the basics, there’s plenty of others who can. He’ll not be very popular at the post match ‘commiserations’.Quote:
