I'll have to watch again, but I thought the scrum only took a little hit after Slipper went off (kudos to Cowan), but more so after Kepu went off. Generally a good game by the forwards - scrum mostly stable, lineouts run well by the hookers and Simmons.
The real downside was decision-making, especially in the first half (too many quick taps, some wrong options off breakdowns) and some handling issues (although it was wet) with some bad passes from Phipps and others. The Foley / Hooper double-effort to not get that try was not so flash either, but I though Foley generally had a very good game. Argies had a pretty vigorous defensive line, and their comeback was a big effort.
