Match has settled down into an arm wrestle with the Pumas ahead by 10.
Since the early Pumas blitz (2 tries) Ireland have consolidated well
Lemoenetyd
A wobblymans work is never done. Putting up a new washing line, hanging out the washing, etc. and missed the Irish try. Ireland looking a bit more composed now.
Second half will obviously be crucial for Ireland.
Just enough time now for a good swim… and to re-charge my drink!
In the cricket, after having been 180 odd for 2 after 35 overs, mini collapsed to 270/7. A pretty poor show. Hope the bowling is a little better
Drawn gone for 13. Good bowling from Morkel. Caught behind
Drawn = Dhawan.
Jeeeez, my pool’s water is at 33°C… almost too warm to cool off in!
2nd Half ON!
Ireland scrape a penalty deep in their own 22, Murphy
Good defense by Ireland. Argentina not being able to score points there.
Another Ireland penalty… now they will get out of their half
Tryyyyyyyyyy Murphy, Ireland!
Great stuff, Ireland right back in it now
@ Just For Kicks:
Was hoping for a score closer or post 300+ the way we started. Was hoping Miller stuck around longer but interesting to see him top of the order.
Greta try by Ireland! They look determined and the Pumas look rattled.
Los Pumas 20 / 17 Ireland
Ireland are back in the contest!
Oirish bouncing back. Still in it.
Just 3 points in it now and all the penalties going Irelands way.
Pumas need to score soon or it’s over for them.
Ireland get the scrum penalty which is another sign that the Argies have lost the plot.

Agree. On this pitch (a bit of turn, but seems a good wicket), need a high score. I think the Indian can easily top this score
Pumas penalty right in front on the Ireland 22
Finally Argies come back strong and get a kickable penalty. They need these points desperately.
Los Pumas 23 / 17 Ireland
Gap back to 6 but Ireland very much in this game.
Ireland penalty… against Fernandez Lobbe.
TMO also asked to check a shoulder by Herrera
Just cynical, but could be in trouble
