[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 664855, member: 39190"] I have possibly a different perspective. On one hand I really do think we'd have been the team to benefit more from a dry pitch. At the same time a dry pitch would not solve some factors that influenced the game; Argentina have a better scrum. We aren't putting pressure on their line out while they are more than willing to take us on there and sucessfully so and us without any of our previous specialist line-out operators. We are a team who play off set piece dominance more than break down dominance IMO. Despite our 'traditional strengths' I feel we need to take them on ball in hand and with width as i feel we are better than them 12 outwards but which we're only comfortable doing on a dry hard track.
