67-27 to Argentina.

We still have some work to do.
Better not send a C team there again.

That Argentina Australia game was something else.

Australia were 17 points up at one stage, led by 3 at halftime. Then go onto lose by 40!!

Unreal!!!

Must say after all the memes, the fly over at CT was the best I have ever seen

Finished watching the game just now. During the 1st half, it looked like Arg wasn't in the mood today, But after the second half I do suspect that they were just giving Aus some false hope.

Argentina isn't the pushover team we remember. They've beaten New Zealand before.

 

[Pegging]

Argentina have a try squad

Last 20 was something else.

If aus don't turn it around fast they will be an embarrassment as home nation at WC 2027.

They’re having a breakdown.

I'm not too much against this. We've been building a broad squad and have superb depth in virtually all positions. Traveling to a different continent across 5 time zones and back in a week is surprisingly taxing.

Last time we did something similar we humiliated Eddie Jones.

The result in CPT was also another huge and disappointing loss for Ireland...

Pics or it never happened

Fair!

Walked past the hotel and spotted the busses, decided to wait to watch them head out




Victory lap!



One hell of a day out

And we got two flyovers

I have no shame in admitting I lost my mind when it flew over, hands in air, on my feet, shouting at the top of my lungs for no damn good reason. I was directly in line with its flight path, directly underneath where it exited

Got to watch it come in and fly right over me. Getting goosies just thinking about it

Let's do this.

I was at the stadium today, it was insane.

I have no voice left, and a thundering headache... all worth it.

I'm also pretty sure I screamed like a girl when the plane flew over... twice. I fecking loved it

Same here. First time at a game - really enjoyed the whole thing, such a cool vibe. When we bought tickets all that was left was the R450 tickets and really - they're absolutely fine. They could charge a lot more for those tickets and it's cool to see them making it affordable to attend a game.

You haven't experienced a test unless it's a SA vs NZ test.

Also lekker having the waterfront right there with every place packed full of people continuing the good time after the match. Decent police and traffic cop presence, busses carting people off - the whole experience was good.
