Scotland making Argentina look a completely different side to the one that thrashed Wales.
They have been really poor.

You were saying?

Bath players have had a massive impact on this weekend’s internationals.
Santi Carreras has turned this game on it’s head.

I guess you could say that Russell played a huge part by giving the ball away when a try looked likely.
The game turned at that point.

The man of the match only played 25 minutes!

Exactly.

Not a good day for Finn, but Santi was excellent.
The Finn pass to no one that led to a 90 m loss of territory coupled with the introduction of santi changed the game.

I hope Gregor townsend doesn't have a cat!

I guess what you can draw from today's game is that the World rankings are correct, Argentina are better than Scotland.
England fans who are asking why are we playing Argentina instead of testing ourselves against South Africa should ponder on that.

Argentina have beaten both South Africa and the All Blacks this year, and last year as well, so yes they are better than Scotland, and hopefully next week better than England 😂

One of the regulars on my Parkrun is a lady called Beverley Hills. But I don’t know if it is her maiden name.

Maybe she is Hollie Wood’s posher sister.

Although overshadowed somewhat by the Lions in Aus, England beating Argentina, in Argentina with so many "first choice" players on the Lions Tour was a hell of an achievement (also orchestrated by George Ford). Argentina are a great international rugby team and should be feared by absolutely everyone else.

Not a great start for Wales, and it's been all AB possession so far.
also, how do they think the firework fog will clear with the roof shut?

 

[Dorset Boy]

Great take in the air by LRZ, and Wales manage to get over . Stadium has woken up

 

[Pross]

Couple of frustrating soft tries conceded with players falling off tackles but other than that I’m pretty happy. I think we’re starting to see Tandy’s coaching coming through and as the players get more used to it I can see results improving.

Some really positive things for Wales to build on but biggest issue isn't something they can really change - their physical size. They are showing a lot of heart and are giving NZ a game when a lot were expecting a very one sided match.

Hollie reffing well once again.
