[RWC2023 SF1] Argentina vs New Zealand (20/10/2023)

[General Melchett]

Whitelock would have made a great baddie in a Bond movie.

Mon the pumas.

 

[Jimbo]

Would arg winning be that much more of a shock than England in 2019?

 

[McTallshort]

Time to see who England play in the final

 

[Yulia]

Waiting for a great match,changed my plans just to watch it. Hopefully it will be not worse than Ire:NZ
...

 

[Bluemoon]

Expecting NZ to win this really comfortably. Argentina's defence won't last.

 

[TW27BA]

Can't see an Argie win, but its knock out rugby.
Remember NZ in the same position in 2019.
Upsets can happen.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

....what a clearance kick, haha

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Argentina looking good, lost the ball but prior to that made good yardage

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Flatman again, nice

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Important for the Pumas to start capably. Also important they defend the first AB attack successfullly. Little milestones.

 

[Yulia]

Already see it'll be interesting

 

[IT157]

Would arg winning be that much more of a shock than England in 2019?

Easily. By quite a bit actually.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Both all black players not supporting their own weight there at all.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That looked really grim on slow motion

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Is that two head knocks for Boffelli in as many minutes?

 

[Reiser99]

If that had been Steward he'd have been red carded.

 

[Reiser99]

Argentina all over the place at the maul.

 

[O’Doyle Rules]

Game over.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

That's not increasing anyone's optimism that the Pumas can defend well enough to make a match of it. They will need 3 or 4 tries likely to compete and I think that is beyond them.
