[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 526515, member: 24910"] Yeah, this is a weak NZ side - they have only won their last 14 in a row :rolleyes: While it is possible that Argentina was get close, I think (assuming it is dry) the AB's will this game reasonably comfortably. The AB's haven't really been at their best throughout the Rugby Championship - if they start to click (like they did in the 3rd Ireland test for example), they could really rip a team apart. I think Argentina may be in trouble if the continue to use the narrow defensive line they have been using thus far, as it leaves a lot of space out wide. They got away with it in the first test versus the AB's due the conditions (and some rustiness among the AB's) but I feel they could struggle to defend the AB's out wide next weekend. I will wait until the teams (and the weather conditions) are announced before I make my prediction, but at this stage I think the AB's will win rather comfortably... [/QUOTE]
