NZ or Ireland will beat the Argies by 20 odd points in the semis at least

A credit to Gatland that he could get such a tune out of this pile of shite

New Zealand yes.

Would you seriously trust Ireland to beat Argentina by 20 points?

Nope

Mad to think Argentina could be the sole southern hemisphere team in rugby world cup semifinals.

Argentina banish some Marseille World Cup quarter final ghosts.

Shane Horgan is some tool saying the ‘Argies’ are a middling team. Listening to colleagues in the British media a little too much

The last ditch tackle to prevent a Welsh try was the greatest tackle in the history of rugby

Sure there could be no northern hemisphere team in the semis?

Gatty misses out on being the first ever coach to reach a third World Cup semi-final.

Michael Cheika becomes the second man to coach two different countries to a semi-final.

Yet again the Argentinians turn up in a World Cup when it really matters. That was some performance to storm back from 10 points down. Essentially won the last 45 minutes by 29-7.

I wouldn’t say they turned up at all.

They got beat easily by England and met a woeful welsh side.

Argentina in a World Cup is our ultimate bogey team. 1999, 2007 and 2015 were all painful defeats with only a narrow pool win in 2003 for retribution. We always think they’re not as good as they used to be.

Whoever loses the two 8 pm quarter finals can feel aggrieved over the draw.

Bar England the other three sides are shite.

They are literally shite.

They’ve completed the set of World Cup quarter-final victories over the Celtic nations.

Argentina have beaten Ireland twice in World Cup play in France. Beware.

A minimum of a box office 3rd place play off with England is assured for them and a repeat World Cup final pairing of France v Argentina remains alive.

Fair point. Ireland would beat them by 30
