2014 home fixtures

Another difficult fixture, it will be difficult to get a win at home. The June's games will be played by Pampas XV (Argentina A), so it will be difficult to get a victory against Ireland and Scotland, and the other home games will be against the powerful southern hemisphere.

If the UAR wants to get more wins, should analyze the fixture and change some things. For example, playing the window June and Rugby Championship with European players and suspend the November window.

With the current schedule, 80% will be losses. Because when we play against teams on our level, we play with players developing (Pampas XV) and when we play with our best players, we play in extreme conditions. (Against Tri Nations and 6 Nations away from home). That will be defeats 80% or more per year.


Before however the team played 3 matches against European opposition at home and 3 away games in Europe, and that gave 50% or 60% of wins. This has repercussions on our team, because people who don't know rugby, who never played rugby and rugby haters (usually soccer fans from working class), they will celebrate the defeat of the Pumas. With better timing, we could get more victory (Maybe 50 or even 70% win) and so will be less criticism. People don't know that rugby only care about results and if the team wins many games, can not criticize harshly.


Cheers
