[2019 Rugby Championship] Round 2: Australia vs. Argentina (27/07/2019)

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Argentina are such a weird team. It seems like regardless of who they're playing, they just play slightly worse than them.

Argentina are such a weird team. It seems like regardless of who they're playing, they just play slightly worse than them.

They look really Tier 2 today to be honest. Basic errors, indecision, poor decisions, running out of puff - mixed in with some exciting running rugby, it's a standard you expect from Fiji or Japan.

Also, what the Folau has happened to Sanchez??

Australia dominating people in the scrum is so weird to me

I'm rooting for the Wallabies, so weird is a good thing so far in this match.

Hoping Matera sends Latu to the shadow realm.

You should probably know that to an Aussie "rooting" has a very different meaning...

Tell me, I'm guessing it's not sports related?

It shares some similarities to playing sports.

It shares some similarities to playing sports.

For example - it's energetic, you generally perform better after a warm up, If done wrong you can get injured, I'm slightly below average at it....

Kerevi has been shocking

I figured it had something to do with sex.

That break was class though, and the decision to kick too, fair play

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

I think i'll need several couple of litres of detergent to cleanse my eyes after that.

If Tupou can keep his head screwed on i think he has the potential to be the best tighthead prop in the world.

Scrappy game. Win is a win. Wallabies seemed to fall apart once Genia and Lilo came off. Toomua not up to it. Awful handling all round.

 

[Derpus]

Nice to see the Australian public filling the stadium.... expensive tickets or just lack of interest in RU?

Zero interest. We havent sold out a game in years.

So only just got around to watching this as had to nip out. Lealiifano obviously made a big difference and if I were Cheika I'd be starting him in the 10 shirt hereafter. Korobete played well on his return too... and for the first time in along time I thought Hooper done some good work (helped for once by his team mates competing at the break down).

Argentina, I thought were poor... seemed far more interested in being ****ly and trying to have the last say in any physical disputes (even when after the whistle was blown) than what was transpiring in the game.

 

[Hulk Hogan]

I was at the game, I was very disappointed when I went down to get a photo with the legend Juan Manuel Leguizamon only to find he had run off to the change room a real shame as I may never get another chance.
