The Argies have allways been tough. I have a lot of respect for them and so should the ABs.

Yes the Pumas have improved.The Springboks were supposed to have improved as well..Three weeks ago Aussies had improved..The Allblacks are the best team in the world because they are consistent..Its easy to play well on the odd occasion but to do it week in week out is what makes the Allblacks special..

call me picky, but...The proof is not, nor has it ever been, in the pudding. Its a popular bastardisation of a very old saying, but it is completely wrong. The saying states: The proof of the pudding, will be in the eating. Therefore it is the pudding that is being proven, and that proof is therefore, in the eating. To abbreviate it correctly, would be to state... The proof is in the eating. Despite being frequently uttered, the proof is in the pudding, means nothing. There - vent over...

pumas will have a go. looking forward to it

With the RWC only a year or so away, Id love to see Beauden Barrett drop a few goals.

What Argentina lack is 1 self belief. Youre right, their squad is as good as South Africa and Australia. They just need to believe it themselves.

Pumas have always had the personnel I believe....they just lacked a good game plan, togetherness and cool heads. They have a long history of troubling the ABs...late 70s from memory the ABs scraped out a 17 all draw in Argentina.

playing here they will offer less resistance but at home will a completely different story and that is why shag will experiment with the team at home and then put the A team on in argentina

next weeks lotto numbers please

Los Pumas will come second in the Rugby Championship.

Really struggling to find the point of the article. Is it Coach says dont get complacent?, or is it There may be some changes, but I dont know what they are yet? Maybe its I think Ill just whip up a list of players that are in the squad and see if any of them get named.It seems a little lazy to say that the All Black coachs playbook is predictable, - All of these things are likely to get a mention in the coming days, as the All Blacks emphasise how much respect they have for the Pumas, while pumping out an article that could have been written three weeks ago.

fair enough anything could happen

In 2001 , Pumas failed to clear the ball with time up on the clock while leading 20 - 17 againts the All Blacks (Pumas also missed a penalty to make it 23-17 and would have won them the game for them). The ABs ran the ball and Ben Blair scored in the corner and it was converted to win 24-20.

..i prefer watching him score tries

Youre picky but correct. Many sayings get butchered, in the USA i have to constantly hear Americans say they â˜could care lessâ¦..which is the total opposite of what they mean, that they â˜couldnt care less.

He actually dropped a goal last week after scoring under the posts. But yes, it would be good to see BB drop some goals. However, the ABs have seldomly been threatened to the point where they need it, as they usually have the game sewed up with 10 minutes to play. Paul Nickson actually summed it up, when, as he said, he prefers watching him score tries. Dunedin last year, when it looked as though we were beat, scores in the last couple of minutes

good on ya

actually Ben Blair set up Scott Robertson

Hahaha, League is Better, I think you really like rugby and thats why youre always on this site commenting. Or is that theres no-one on any league sites and youre lonely?

Id agree with you Rhys, Bidwell does come up some fairly empty articles on a regular basis.
