For all the hype around the rise of Argentina, to me it still seems like same old same old with them. Crack the BIL one week, get hammered by a depleted England the next. Beat the All Blacks today, bleed 50 against them the next game. The eternal see-saw team.
Yeah, it was a good win for us considering the team we had out there.
Just got to get through the next weeks Test now !
Was it a full strength Argies side - I did not watch the game
There were a few missing.
When Ford, van Poorfeet and Slade emerge as heroes you know the opposition are not clicking. That said England’s defensive line was awesomely quick in the first half. I wonder if the chappie who coached our WC defense is still there,
No that is Felix Jones who rejoined the Boks a few months ago
Evidenced in Chasing the Sun, Felix played a big part in the Bok success
Opportunity missed by Borthwick not taking advantage of what he has to offer
Felix left the England set up saying he could not work in that environment
England continuing the upward trajectory.
Plenty of people are going to be eating some bird soon. They're already better than Ireland. And I don't think they're a million miles off of France...
I love the enthusiasm, Plum ! :)
Go ahead Plum, you can say the word…..crow….no need to avoid the four letter words, we are adults here.
Slade was a hero…..he played almost the whole match with a broken hand.
Haha Moz
I thought that since it was about England, using crow might be a tad too on the nose.
