I understand now. Yes Argentine players don't tend to get so many caps. Albacete has been in the team an age yet only got 52 caps, Ledesma got 84 caps over a 15 year international career, other nations would be well over 100 with that length of career.
Contepomi is still performing very well at the top level. He still has great vision, passing and skills.

If your referring to that Munster match in 09, Leinster were well on the way to winning. They were winning 12-6 when Contepomi went off, and Contepomi was playing well, Munster just weren't at the races like they were against the Ospreys in that game. The pack just weren't their usual selves and their fly half had a shocker.
The Contepomi twins combining here ...
Manuel was not nearly as skilled as his twin, but was a strong tackler as a centre so had his uses. Also played full back at the start of his career.

Sorry I must've been at wrong game having remembered it correctly Sexton came on to kick first pen for Leinster. Contepomi hit drop goal and Duck again YouTube will kill you please watch a match. And explain this.
Contepomi went off after 20 mins was it (possibly) less - Sexton came on kicked a pen and Leinster scored a well worked try through D'arcy (which Sxton hit a howler of conversion to miss). We went in 11-6 down at half time yet you say it was 12-6. How do you work that out??? Just curious.
