[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 529715, member: 20605"] Hardly a fair comparison though. Italy beat Scotland (they had beaten before, they were only ranked 1 place behind at the time - Italy was 10 - Scotland was 9), but then had 23 tries and between 40 and 60 points stacked against them in their next four games, and they didn't have to play the top three teams in the world. With a little luck and a little more commitment, Argentina could have won three matches this year, they should have beaten SA in Argentina and Australia on the Gold Coast. They had the winning of those games but didn't close the deal, probably more through lack of experience and poor use of top two inches rather than any lack of rugby playing ability. Also, apart form the thing with the laser, which has to be stamped on quickly, I love what their fans bring to the game. Our fans could learn a thing or two from them about enthusiasm for their team.
