Nice touch, no superstars within the team, just the best team the game working as 1.

by **RDW** Sun 20 Sep 2015, 4:57 pm

Penalty try as well no?

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:03 pm

good use of the tmo there, didnt stop the game but still got the correct outcome

by Geordie Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:09 pm

Well well

by majesticimperialman Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:11 pm

Nice try by Argentina.

Did Carter kick the try score in the head?

by Duty281 Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:11 pm

Surprised New Zealand have been kicking their points, rather than stabbing the ball in the corner and going for the jugular early on.

Argentina need to tidy up their discipline if they want to have any chance.

by Eejit Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:18 pm

Looks like we've got a bit of a game here.

by Geordie Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:19 pm

Oh Richie Richie....

by **RDW** Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:20 pm

Don't think Barnes is going to be any more popular in NZ!

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:20 pm

kiwi's aren't going to like that with Wayne Barnes sending McCaw off

by majesticimperialman Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:20 pm

Mcaw yellow carded. about time.

i agee, but i think he's having a good game so far

by trebellbobaggins Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:21 pm

That's fair for a trip.

Silly thing to do.

by Duty281 Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:21 pm

Barnes has some balls. Very Happy

And Argentina lead.

by **RDW** Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:26 pm

Very fancy from NZ but aren't getting anywhere with it - argies frustrating then

by mikey_dragon Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:27 pm

Why were Kiwi's booing the correct call to sin bin McCaw, and why do they boo when he is shown on screen? Weird.

i'm sure it's not just 90,000 kiwi's in the stadium

by **RDW** Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:29 pm

Another fair yellow!

by mikey_dragon Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:29 pm

Brilliant, NZ getting reffed for once.

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:29 pm

Barnes has been spot on, NZ just not getting away with it

by Geordie Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:30 pm

Oh and another

by TightHEAD Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:30 pm

I love this game, but the armies should go for the try!

by majesticimperialman Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:30 pm

NZ 2 in the bin. Don't think i have seen that before.

by Geordie Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:31 pm

And both correct decisins....

by Duty281 Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:31 pm

We love you Wayne Barnes, we do...

by Hood83 Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:31 pm

This is brilliant

by TightHEAD Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:31 pm

Why is McCaw allowed to prowl the touch line when he should be in the sin bin?

So it was Argentinians booing Wayne Barnes after he sin binned McCaw for tripping one of their players? Ah that explains it then.

It was one-eyed kiwi's booing Barnes. You could hear some cheers for the decision just about, but it got drowned out by the booing. If Wales fans did it I'm sure it would get a lot of mentions.

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:40 pm

whatever, haven't got time for you to try and make a point so you can play the "wales are hard done by" card

by mikey_dragon Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:41 pm

Those one-eyed Kiwi's eh, just won't have their McCaw in the bin Very Happy

by brennomac Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:48 pm

Been critical of Barnes in the past, but spot on with both sinbins, lots of refs - especially SH refs would do anything not to card Saint Richie

by brennomac Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:52 pm

Jeez Arg high fielding is sensational

by **RDW** Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:53 pm

Argies winning the aerial battle

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:54 pm

Nonu has been rubbish this game

by TightHEAD Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:57 pm

He deserved to drop that for having a silly hair cut

by trebellbobaggins Sun 20 Sep 2015, 5:59 pm

I could see France giving the Kiwi a torrid time in the scrum if they meet.

by SecretFly Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:01 pm

I see New Zealand are sitting on the fence here, debating which side they want to meet in the quarters - France or Italy.

by **Notch** Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:04 pm

I don't know what I want to happen here, from an Irish PoV. Might end up playing France in the last game with both sides knowing the winner gets the booby prize of a NZ quarter-final.

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:08 pm

nothing in that high tackle

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:09 pm

SBW having some impact

by SecretFly Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:09 pm

Exactly Notch.... now there'd be an interesting game of dodgy passing and butter-fingered offloads....

No wait.... it looks like the ABs have decided Italy.

by WELL-PAST-IT Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:10 pm

I was just about to say " what is it about the minnows against the giants in this RWC" then of course the AB score

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:11 pm

slippery slope now in the game, think the AB will pull ahead

by Eejit Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:12 pm

Good try that. Great awareness from Smith.

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:13 pm

Smith needs to be a bit more careful

by nathan Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:17 pm

NZ delaying rolling away just enough to help there players get a turnover

by Scottrf Sun 20 Sep 2015, 6:19 pm

Argie defence has been very strong. Great performance.
