[QUOTE="Guilty, post: 671240, member: 71378"] While I do think Australia matches up better against Argentina than NZ or SA in particular, the Pumas can certainly win. If the Pumas can dominate set piece and control the ball, then they can dictate the pace of the game. This is how you beat the Wallabies. Personally, I am pretty worried about scrum time as I think all Wallaby supporters will be going into the match. A yellow card and poor weather would give the Pumas a real crack IMO. I was one of those people who thought that the RC should probably go back to the Tri Nations but the Pumas have really impressed this year. They are very unlucky to be on no wins and I am sure will show up on Saturday. Got to agree with you about starting Beale at #12. This is the game to do it before we lock down our major backline combinations for the rest of the RC and the Spring Tour. Seeing him come on with space to run against SA was brilliant and Folau instantly looked more at home. Really frustrated to see Fardy still starting. I would loved to have seen Higgers, Hoops and Big Ben on together. I'm liking the look of the Pumas team - massive forwards and aggressive backs. Could be a winning combo under the right conditions.
