[QUOTE="gsv, post: 142454"] It's always the old story. France is absolutely inconsistent under pressure. That's what Argentinians did. They ran deadly off every ruck. They hunted the French all over the pitch and they (the French) lost their cool. Anyway, I wouldn't rate it as a poor match. I think we've seen some good old fashion rugby. Rude, hard, just as the Argentinians are. Just look at that French driving maul from thirty metres out. They even put the backs in there, it was a eleven or twelve mass of people pushing (just as the spot reads "all behind the blues"), and the Pumas answered back by putting in their backs too! It's been terrific! Almost all the players were involved in that maul! Finally, it went down, there has been some fierce pick and drive near the line, and still the Pumas held on. That was really fantastic. I was standing in front of the screen with eyes wide open. That's been unbelievable! If that's not great rugby... After that, anyway, the Argentinians tried to slow the game down every time the whistle blew. They were always down in pain for that thing or the other. That was a poor effort, in effect. Still, I think that maul worth the admition price, really. Ps: what do you guys think about the coreography? I didn't like it very much. All those masked people moving on the field... And those orrible machine... It was orrible. I liked, instead, to see the old players: Lomu, Edwards, Rives etc. [/QUOTE]
