The Rugby Championship 2018

But Argies snatch another on the counter!

Edit - actually will probably get called back - obstruction

If that gets called back for obstruction I'm going to punch the TV..........

 

[Derpus]

Fuck me TMO's are unwatchable.

 

[Slim 293]

Foot looks to be out though....... darn.

 

[Derpus]

As if the game wouldn't be better off just awarding that try?

I don't think you could have conclusively said that though and they used to give the benefit of the doubt to the attacking team. Nowadays it's just the benefit of the doubt goes to NZ

Should have been a penalty try can't kick the ball out of a players hand in attempt to score a try.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Mo'unga with another missed tackle and line break

Nah, the angle from behind confirmed that his foot went out.........

 

[Strewthcobber]

I thought it was pretty clearly obstruction in the first place

 

[Upthenuts]

going ok for so many injuries, been some great rugby and that argie try was a highlight

Nah, the AB's defender was coming from behind and the Argie player was fine putting himself into a support position..........

If that was obstruction there would've been half a dozen calls like it already in the match.

I could be convinced on the obstruction call cause that has to be deliberate - but blue 5 was offside (in front of the ball carrier) and interfered with play - so at the least scrum back to NZ

Nah, it was general play and the AB's defender was coming from behind the ball carrier and the Argie 5, who was in his right in his movements to put himself into a support position.

 

[Upthenuts]

ben smith brilliant there

 

[Strewthcobber]

TJ in again after a pretty great start to the half by Argentina. Out to 32-17 after 60

 

[Slim 293]

Only 5 consecutive penalties......... 3 in the red zone........

No yellow?

The mad cap Latin American's are still going hard after 70 minutes -- albeit against only ~15 minutes of Retallick. An impressive effort given the Wallabies efforts. Will be interesting to see how the Springbok's go next week.

Argentina played well tonight....against a very good NZ side....

Great to see them coming back as a serious force in rugby.
