Rugby Championship: Argentina - New Zealand (29/09/2012)

[Draggs]

Let's trade. You can watch NHL all you want.
NZ playing with good pace, but Argentina not looking lost. Less kicking already, good to see.

Yeah!!! First try of the night for Argentina!!! Great break by Amorosino and finished by the scrum-half! Landajo.

All Blacks-try by the Pumas!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Pumas try!
Great break by Amorosino!

 

[Draggs]

Amorosino! What pace!
I thought they completely missed their player, but effective use of dummy runners.
Great try from Landajo.

Let's trade next year since there's a lockout now anyway...

Damn, I hope your news was a week behind or something.
Someone ran their mouth, NZ lose 10m after that pen.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Good to see the All Blacks being policed well. There's a lot of referees who are lenient to their break-down actions, but Peyper is not letting them off with anything. Bosch with a 55 m. kick now, but he misses.

 

[Gavin]

Glad I stayed up. Looks like a good match on the cards.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Argentina is frantic on defense. They are throwing everything at it. I am not sure they can keep this up for 80 minutes.

PS: It looks hilarious when the front of a maul keeps going without a ball-carrier. They are just slowly walking forward without noticing haha.


Now it's 5-7 by Aaron Smith scoring a try under the poles. Easy try after a stupid, stupid clearing at the ruck.

 

[Draggs]

Good burst from Nonu puts Aaron Smith flying under the posts.

 

[Darwin]

That's better.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

All Blacks are warmed up now, looking much better.

5-10 now after a debatable penalty for NZ

 

[Draggs]

Not sure about that, Peyper was quick on the whistle.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Argentina sloppy now, conceding a scrum-penalty. Did not expect that to happen. Cory Jane scoring a try now, 5-15 now and this is over. Pumas won't come back from this. All Blacks are on fire.

Hansen's pre-match mind games comments about Pumas tactics working on the Peyper?

Maybe. Peyper isn't a very bright chap it seems.
Read puts Jane over in the corner.

Pumas need the next points to have any hope of keeping up with NZ.

Peyper is a poor referee, but we discussed this earlier. How he is on the international list, I will never know. Meanwhile, Craig Joubert is on the field carrying a flag. Where's the logic in that?

8-17 after a penalty by JMH, who is now on 100 Test points!

Yet Mark Lawrence is stuck reffing CC.
JM Hernandez with a penalty, 8-17.
Could be 13-17, just shows how crucial goal kicking is.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Another poor decision by Peyper. You cannot be offside when the opposition taps the ball backwards.

8-20

 

[psychic duck]

Offsides like that should be ruled accidental offside and a scrum awarded. Unfair, he couldn't get out the way.
