Bledisloe Cup/The Rugby Championship

TEST
MATCH
RUGBY

They saved Fosterā€™s backside there. Thatā€™s probably him in situ until the World Cup anyway.

They have two home fixtures against Argentina up next. I imagine the atmosphere at those will be similar to that of the Ireland v Italy Six Nations game in 2000 after Ireland had thrashed Scotland.

They lead for vast majority of the match. Should have been miles ahead by halftime but left the saffers a sniff of it.

If thatā€™s the best the SH has to offer, weā€™re genuinely in with a shot

That was straight from the Coach Solakjaer manual of one game to save your job, from Coach Foster.

They might still sack him anyway when he gets home to New Zealand.

Pumas ragdolling the wallabies here. Seethe from the Aussie commentators is brilliant to hear.

2 late tries there to absolutely turn the dagger after the stabbing. The Aussies are seething

48 - 17 is quite an annihilation. If youā€™d told me 7 or 8 years ago one Saturday in August Man Utd would have lost 4-0 to a team playing in League 1 and Australia would have lost by over 30 points to Argentina who had only just joined the other tri nations teams i would have said you were mad but here we are and Davys back in Waterford to boot.

And a Leeds player is the Premier Leagues top scorer ā€¦

Argentina top of the table at the end of Round 2.

Interesting matches on early in the morning.

Weā€™ll see how the Saffers fare with touring. Yo yo d have to fancy them against an already tired looking and depleted wallabies

ABā€™s are going to beat the Argies by 15+ I reckon.

Thought Argentina benefitted from a few calls going their way at crucial times as well. Think NZ will cover it too

Theyā€™re next week

Fuck.

Heā€™s on IPTV and very much looking forward to watching the games from last weekend

Quick start by the Aussies.

SA starting to wear away at them now

Monumental effort in defence to hold onto the lead at halftime by the Aussies, and with a man in the bin. Laughable yellow for Faf at the end.

Kiwis couldnā€™t sell out 20000 apparently.

Enjoyed Faf laughing in the face of the ref there, the little prick.

SA will finish strong here youd think
