[QUOTE="Colombia, post: 526315, member: 63025"] Club level opposition however. Test level defence is obviously a different ball game. Perhaps notable he was wearing 15 in that video you post with plenty of space to attack from deep. I don't think a player like Imhoff is going to win a match for Argentina unless they put him in space and they can't even get their incumbent wingers into space. Against that background and Argentina's huge reliance on defence, imo he is more likely to lose the team a game - had the touch-judge did his job properly and ruled him out that is precisely what would have happened last week. Exeter are pretty similar to Argentina with their forwards-based approach. I think Camacho left Quins just before they started getting good. I still maintain that if Camacho is given an opportunity to finish at test level he will take it (just as he did in Salta). Unfortunately Argentina aren't creating those types of chances so we can't say one way or the other. After his performance against the Boks in the opener, were I Phelan I'm not sure I'd play Amorosino ever again. He is like Balshaw, best used as an impact sub if at all. I think before Argentina start picking attacking wingers with iffy defence they need to start picking centres who (rather than kicking it or shovelling it along aimlessly) actually have the ability to work the wings into some kind of space. I'm with you on the need for Argentina to develop their attacking game but imo it should start further in-field, not on the wing. In the longer term, Fernandez and especially Bosch need to go. Sanchez to be given more gametime at 10 along with Landajo at 9 might not be the worst idea either. [/QUOTE]
