Stay up late. You can do it!

I'm going quite bold here but I think Argentina will win by 8 points. France are coming off a very fast-paced, high intensity game against NZ where they had to do a lot of defending. I think the 6 day turnaround is a massive factor here. If Argentina get their attack going, which, to be fair, Ireland did a good job at stifling for the most part - then I think gaps will start appearing in the second half and the Pumas do have a habit of piling on points quickly. I think this is a very tough game for France.

What are the other 2?

Scotland v Australia and Ireland v Fiji even though I think the result in the latter is pretty predictable. Still should b an entertaining game to watch.

Atonio was expected back for this game

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Feel like they need to clarify the laws around this to the general public, because to me that's play on

 

[Horacito]

what?

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

That's harsh. Gonna be a frw unsatisfying calls with this rule for awhile.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

See I think that's worse than the croc roll, he clearly lifts even if he was on his knees

 

[Horacito]

five minutes and 3min of tmo
we need to sort this out

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Can you make a tackle from your knees? Didn't think that's allowed.

 

[unrated]

What a **** call against Montoya

you can't but two yellows in 2 min is not good for the match I guess

Mental that a ref won't give a penalty at least when his reasoning is "he was on his knees".

Really dislike Pearce as a ref in general.

 

[Horacito]

It's hard to be enthusiastic when reffs get so much in the way of actually playing

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Argentina have their tactics perfect here, should be a very interesting watch.

I think he just wants to stay in control
