    Looking at those line ups, England have no excuses for not running in a cricket score here

    I thought Conters would kick.

    EDIT:After that attempt he should give it a go.

    Should've been a penalty for Argentina under English posts for tackler not releasing.

    I'd say you'll be able to pick about 30/40 of those out for each team by the end of this one!

    Great handling by England so far, Wade showing he's more than just a speedster.

    What do Argentina seek to achieve lining out with a retired player at centre, a 2nd div player at oh and more? Super 14 and english prem are over? Why send out this team for the slaughter?

    They seem to be terrified of not having a full squad for the Rugby Championship.

    Give the premiership and T14 guys a rest at the end of the season.

    It just highlights the lunacy of having them playing in the SH championship when all their players are based in Europe. It was a terrible idea.

    A rest? Dont see the English not selecting a full strength team bar lions? Really backward thinking from the UAR, this should be a test for the championship. They gain nothing from getting mauled (twice, probably) by England here, smashes morale. Contemponi is already having harsh words in spanish with some of the other pumas. Basically saying "idiot, how do you not understand what i am telling you, get over there...idiot" thats the pg version!

    Also, i am not impressed that I am going to the next test expecting another walkover in two weeks time. Uncompetitive matches are a grim spectacle.
