South Africa and Argentina made impressive strides as the Rugby Championship power balance shifts.
Despite the festive atmosphere of Sam Cane's farewell tour and a more complete showing in the final Bledisloe, the first Rugby Cha…
South Africa will have to wait until November before they get a chance to reclaim their place at the top of the men's rankings.
And that’s the ball game.
Pumas made me shed a tear today. Or the 6 beers before brunch. Either way - tears of joy.
Los Pumas you Beauties!!!!!!
Drop goal coming up.
Or a penalty will do.
Wow. NZ maul defence sad.
Gardner doing his best to keep NZ in it. A timely turnover indeed.
NZ imploding.
This isn’t Super Rugby Razor.
Yes boys. The All Black Slayers.
Try time.
Ioane over the white wash and he hasn’t been on the field for 5 minutes.
Oh wait. Wrong whitewash.
Blackadder needs a haircut. So he can see nicely.
Come on Argentina. The boks need this one - just in case NZ pitch up in Cape Town.
NZ fans. Blind.
Still scrumless after 58 minutes.
Billy Bob Beaumont must be dancing a jig.
Except that Gardner will rewrite the rule book now.
Bullsh1t call. Blackadder went high and made head contact. No mitigation.
Same incident Boks vs Wallabies - yellow card.

NZ napping.

BS penalty against puma no.6 for a legitimate steal.
Pathetic reffing.
Spoke too soon. Go Pumas!
If the pumas want to win this game they’re going to have to score more points than Gardner can award penalties against them.
If World Rugby is going to try new rules every year, they should try new refs too.
This NH lot are getting long in the tooth.
Had to take a break from the rugby to calm my dog down after attacking the Gardner - but what I’ve seen so far is Pumas look great on attack.
ABs being way too respectful of them at the rucks. Giving them way too much time and ruck speed advantage.
