[QUOTE="Jaguares, post: 587921, member: 63264"] You have to understand the circumstances, Argentina reached its peak in 2007 with their golden generation when their best players reached their highest level at the same time. After that, began the spare equipment and replacements were not as good as those who left. With any head coach, they would have had the same problems. With Michael Cheika, Dave Rennie, Jake White and even Graham Henry, they were having trouble because their replacements are not good, and that's a deeper problem than just the coach's fault. You can be the best coach around the world but if your you don't have enough material, you just can't aspire to much. In this context, the Phelan campaign doesn't seem as bad as some say. This isn't to say he is the best coach around the world nor that Argentina is the best team, but they had many problems and yet could do respectable games against good teams. [FONT=Verdana] [/FONT] The Pumas played 2 times in NZ in recent years (RWC 2011 and TRC 2012) and never received 60 points. Cheers [/QUOTE]
