    Scots did very well but the Aussies were in front for the majority of the match so probably just about deserved it. Like the way the aussies play. Solid forward work then get it out wide. Old fashioned rugby.

    Didn't see today's games but not surprised by either result. So the NH teams that can hold their heads up high are Wales and Scotland. I feel Ireland gave their all to beat France last week and so it proved today. Can NZ and Argentina possibly meet in the a re-run of their first game?

    It's always possible BUT I couldn't give a damn about what Argentina get up to as there's a more pressing worry to plan for, South Africa!

    If you can play with pace, get the ball moving quickly and out wide, then you should win. We all know that SA have a huge pack and will try to dominate in that zone, but you guys have more than held your own against them at altitude at Ellis Park.

    We might be in with a chance as Garces knows all about the Yarpies lying all over the ball at rucks & time wasting with fake injuries to allow the forwards a rest every couple of minutes!

    Now Richie Mccaw is playing I reckon AB's 20-18 hats off to the Pumas. Raising a glass to the minnows especially Japan as I believe they have evened the gap on the powerhouse nations (poms not included <laugh>) and created a lot more interest in world rugby!

    It's the opposite of football really. I have very little interest in club rugby but enjoy the internationals and enjoy club football but have little interest in the internationalss

    Another great weekend of sport coming up!!

    I have a feeling the All Blacks will be ripping the Aussies a new one!

    Hoping its end to end, in a non-gay sort of way obviously, otherwise the ref may be more involved than he'd like to be <laugh>

    Don't see that happening. The Aussies always step up against the Kiwi's and that back row will ruin the All Blacks' chances of fast ball. Think it will be close and score for score.
