[QUOTE="Wakaloo, post: 763104, member: 63287"] If Pocock is fit, Australia are clear favourites. He makes such a massive difference. If the Pumas are often forced to defend several phases in their own 22 they'll score almost always, and we'd need something special to keep us within comeback distance... I'd say it's 65-35 to Australia. The Wallabies can also defend phases with impressive pace and accuracy, as they showed against Wales (Although I'd say that Wales didn't push them out wide enough to stretch them, and the Pumas would certainly try to do that). In any case, I think the Pumas are now beginning to reap the benefits of the change in style since Arg joined the RC. It'd be traumatic at first, of course, but we can't thank the inclusion in that competition enough. Guys like Cordero were 13 years old back in 2007 when Argentina started their bid for a regular tournament. It goes to show how the young talent has been developing with a new attitude in mind. Super excited about the match. My prediction is Australia by 7-10, with at least 4 tries scored by each side. Should be great for the neutral. [/QUOTE]
