Never mind. 21 November at Twickenham.
 
Pumas squad vs Barbarians:

 
Anyone knows why Cubelli isn't in the squad? Isn't he supposed to play for the Argentine franchise in next year's SR tournament? Or is he going to Brumbies?
 
I guess Amorisino is available for Munster this weekend then? Literally have heard nothing about him since he signed.

Very strong Barbarian team...hopefully the light snow and gale force winds forecast for Saturday morning doesn't stick around. Probably the most attacking back 3 there has been for quite some time.
 
Tevita Kuridrani, Nemani Nadolo and Naholo playing together :eek::eek::eek:
 
Is it me or does Nadolo not have a number on his back? Tribute to Lomu?
 
Commentator just said Pumas training jerseys were all numbered 11 before the game as tribute and Barbarian 11 jersey is blank! Guess your eyes are better than theirs which is not unusual!

Great Puma try!!!
 
Who is the uncapped Barbarian or has that tradition gone out of the window?
 
Bonus point try before half time!! Excellent first half from the Pumas (missing most of their big names) against one of the strongest Baabaa selections.....although the partying might be taking something out of them!!

Ardie Savea, I think. He's got some 7s caps for New Zealand but hasn't played for the senior 15s side as far as I'm aware.
