France vs Argentina on now - a real cracker

Judgement Day · 26-06-2010 7:36pm #1

Half Time in Buenos Aires and Argentina are leading 19-6. Contepomi is having a superb game and the Argentinians are running from everywhere. Fernandez Lobbe got in for a great try just on half-time. France look really at six and sevens. Don't miss the second half here: http://www.justin.tv/papounet4

When they implode, they implode. This is just after a series win by the Scots in Argentina as well.

FT 41-13 to Argentina. It's a while since I've seen a team play with such intensity - no let up right to the end. While it has to be said that France looked tired it was more that Argentina were rampant and France had nothing to offer. As usual I lost my shirt on Trinh-Duc to score a try. Oh Well, nothing new there.

Argentines just ran through the Frence lines. Good game, but hard to see how the French are 6 nations champoins, or is the quality in the northern hemisphere just not upto the southern? Watching the Springboks, All Blacks and the Pumas they just seem so far ahead.

France always seem to save their worst for Argentina and England for some inexplicable reason.

Well the should make it explicable so we can beat them!

I haven't watched enough rugby to make a fair judgment so I'll take your word on it. But I do think the quality of the teams in the Southern Hemisphere seems better at present.
