[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 529573, member: 44360"] This seems so out of place to the rest of your post, which seems to take a delight in knocking back the pumas. Other than Italy's win that year the rest of their games were hiding's. Argentina held their own in 5 of the 6 matches this year. Many of their struggles this year were due to their own errors and not really being outclassed. While you make some good points about the struggles of South Africa and Australia this year and how they could improve next year, you also make the major assumption that Argentina will remain "in state".( It's also possible the other teams won't be as improved as you suggest either but thats for another time and thread.) It's entirely possible that the Pumas will field a better squad next year, there was much debate about Phelan's selections and improved goalkicking could have seen them win two matches this year. I don't see them beating the AB's for a while but I think the Boks and Wallabies will find games in Argentina in particular to be tough for some time to come. I don't think anyone on TRF is expecting the Pumas to win the RC next season, but that they will generally compete in their games at home while keeping a road game or two at respectable margins.
