Same old Argentina, trying every trick in the book to rile, annoy, intimidate. Can't stand their sports teams.

Hoping Spain give them a good hiding tomorrow.

England holding on. Sound familiar?

Also, Argentina's kit is a replica of the 1986 football WC winning kit.

Fair play to the ref, he's not been swayed by the crowd or antics.

[SP]

The crowd has gone very very quiet 

[SP]

I hope the ref & VAR officials have decent security with them.

What a mad match that was?

[bill taylors apprentice]

I was hoping for a big punch up at the final whistle so we could win the fight as well!

Well done England, ended up with 13 players on the pitch and they still couldn't beat us. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

It has been generally thought that rugby refs are better by the way that they discuss their decisions which can be heard by all. Perhaps it was because it was the Argies buts I thought that he was completely over the top last night especially with that final contraversial try which was finally disallowed denying Argentina a possible draw.either it was in play or not when grounded but the number of replays which were shown did not add to the evidence or alter the final decision. On the night some of our off the ball antics did nothing for our reputations and in fairness were picked up by sharp eyed VAR.

It was a very good game, some good tries, a little bit of niggle,
Ref. definitely wanted to give the last try,
but fair play TMO for sticking too his guns.
Handshakes between teams at the end, as it should be.

I agree and we turned them over on their own patch.
They bring the worst out of opponents with their unsportsman like behaviour.
But the realised that they could not
Push us around as we gave them a rough physical
ride and slapped a few bottoms in the process.
That's how you deal with them, not turning the other cheek because they will come back for more.
They soon realised that if they try and front up against us they will get a sore face.
In the end it was men against boys.
Even when we were reduced to 13 after 2 of our guys got sin binned they still couldn't beat us.

Absolutely

Then their manager calls us disrespectful for celebrating the win, during press conference he asked England to make less noise, but didn't wait, he got up and walked out. Shame.

Alfie,
They have no grace, no shame, no dignity.
Bad losers and bad winners.
They have always been like that since the year Dot, and they will never ever change.
They remind me of a Dog that keeps returning back to its own vomit.
