Pumas scrummie putting them under unecessary pressure
Penalty Wallabies… easy shot
Pumas 3 / 3 Wallabies
Don’t think the Pumas will be able to take the Wobblies here. They may stand a chance at home but I think that Oz and NZ are now prepared for them and won’t underestimate them. Pumas have the heart and pride but just not sufficient quality players. I think every Super 15 team should be obliged to pick at least 1 Argie player in their squad to expose thier players to a better standard of rugby.
Damn, Barnes doing a Morne. Third time lucky…
@ fender:
Ciao old fart

The whole Argies team plays in Europe… in the elite clubs there…
Such fast ball from the rucks for the Wallabies
Cooper having a mare.
Pumas penalty…. Ioane offside, picking the ball up from a Surfer Dude knock
Pumas 6 / 3 Wallabies
Eina, dislocated finger on Shipperley
Beale on as a sub
@ grootblousmile:
Yes, I know but that is not enough. They need a bigger pool of players to be able to choose from. I feel that they build a bigger base and as you know the game is different in the north compared to the south. They are now in the RC, they should be in the Super comp too.
Good Pumas drift defence
Pumas scrum penalty, against Alexander
As soon as ruck ball is slow, it’s a poisoned chalice
@ fender:
Yes, I was just joking, I am an old fart too – maybe even older than you!
@ The_Young_Turk:
Die dooswig van danville
Sharpe over… held up?
TMO
MUST be ruled held up!
… and is
Massive defense by the Pumas. I thought no one would have been able to stop Sharpie there.
Abrasive side, this Pumas side
ausie is maar useless sonder genia
Imhoff on for Camacho
Lemoenetyd
@ smallies:
He really really had the most awful start in a test match ever, didn’t he? I almost would feel sorry for him if he was impaled on a 20 foot post and ritually tortured in front of a baying crowd, on his return to SA.
@ grootblousmile:
Ek kan nie glo ons het teen hierdie aussie span gegly nie
