[petite]

[Jockstap]

Argentina pack ******** all over the French.

 

[phildange]

17-13 for France after 20 minutes . Two tries by Clerc . Surprising open game from Argentina, then super Picamoles opened his wings .
.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

This game not on TV then in the UK?

 

[jcahill1]

It's on Setanta 1 in Ireland. Any other channels?

 

[phildange]

It's on Setanta PPV if you know what it means, or on the internet . Worthy, it's an incredibly running game .
The Argentinian try came from a brilliant inspiration, and the first French try started in their 22m, all hand-made .
Just now, Nyanga created and achieved his try . 24-13 .

This incredible is a must to see on ESPN highlights at 07.45 iin the morning if you are not watching it.......easily the best international match of the week end and perhaps in Europe this year!!

Hats off to PSA for Michalak who has done nothing flashy but has controlled the game brilliantly!

Half time now and 40 point on the board so will not tell you the split!!

Walsh has been super and I know nothing about any yellow cards?

 

[Big Ewis]

uhm so far I'd like to say that uhm...well, in light of the recent eve.....nts...


FUK YIAHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!

 

[phildange]

I don't agree with PSA : I think Clermont full back, Buttin, has more French flair than Dulin . I would also have given a cap to brilliant Fickou and not to this old mule Fritz, who would deserve to speak English . Finally, it can be good to give play time to Machenaud, but he makes mistakes, and costed France the last Argies 3 points . Para is still the best .

The Score is 24-13 to France at halftime, aren't I just the worst.

 

[usausa]

French crowd are the best crowd, love their enthusiasm!

 

[Superalexmarket]

MMMM... very bad blood between some players, maybe not finish the 30 in the field.

It's just the Latin temperament, can't control the red mist.

 

[rgman]

MMMeee RRRRddddd eeeeeee! It´s over, congratulations France.

 

[Tony Manx]

After the Lord Mayor's show.....what a load of c.... the second half was!

it was evident in this display that Machenaud is not the best 9 in France, that is Parra although the might Yach is playing again so will have to see what happens there!! I would be happy to be in PSA's position having full backs like Butin and Dulin to chose between and Lapeyre is not that bad either!! Nyanga had a belter, scoring a grand try, and his performance never dropped.

Allez les bleus..............

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Wow France look like they have hit a good patch of form. Looking really good at the moment.

 

[phildange]

Yes, Lapeyre and Yach can definitely be valid options . But I still miss Fickou in blue right now .

Strange match, like 2 different ones . I guess the Argies were exhausted after this super-fast and unusual (for them) first half, and the French seemed to get in tune with them .

 

[igorBastia]

Congretulation Pumas you such are son of b....it was very exiting. I like your fight spirit. The first half time was absoulut crcrazy. We need two good team to watch such a games. Multo gracias. Anyway who win. Te quiero. On vous aime.

 

[Big Ewis]

Wait the scond half... match not over yet...

uuuuhhhh...huh ? What was that ?! No, surely I heard some whispering coming from your side...

Also:
YEEEAAAAHHHH !!!!!!!

As a big fan of Clerc, Picamoles, Nyanga and Michalak...this here was...well, close to arousing almost, really...
MONSTER first half, but both teams were fkd up tired for the second. Not a try, loads of scrums and kicks...but still some really nice activity all around, esp. for France. Some plays that just had "try" written all over them but just never concluded...
Too bad we didn't get that last try haha...oh well...
30+ scored against AUS and now 40...

Seems like PSA has really, genuinely managed to instill a true sense of confidence and solidarity into this group, amounting to our side understanding how to be consistent...coach said it himself "against Argentina, we have to really...well, 'not be french' - i.e. play great one game and the very next week play a lot sloppier".
