[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 588296, member: 48703"] Well then you clearly haven't watched the players play enough then. The centre problem is equally due to Phelan refusing to test out the suggested alternatives as well. The kick chase method is flawed as well, as we've seen what happens there. Argentina 1) barely can get a point and the game is essentially lost as soon as they go 10 points behind 2) will get pasted in the last 20. The defence isn't that great either, Ireland and France had little problem scoring plenty past it. Argentina need to take a leaf out of Eddie Jones' book who has specially constructed a unique style for Japan to suit the players they have, instead of just using a gameplan straight out of a coaching manual. Argentina's strength is in the loose forwards and back three now, they should try and play a quicker game (which would also help ease up the centre problems) and try and limit time spent in tight play in contact at rucks, mauls and scrums as much as possible.
