Scored more points.

Not that it matters to the game particularly but why is the all blacks skipper allowed to stand a foot inside the touchline when throwing in every line out. Done it every time.

Yeah this was my main worry after those close quarter finals and one side of the draw being easier that we’d get one sided flogging semi finals like this

That team from the England game has returned. How on earth did they beat Wales?

Mainly bcos they are a better team

Its hard to remember but would suspect this is the worst Argentine side who has reached a world cup semi final. A long time ago but remember the 2007 side been a lot of fun and the 2015 crew just been a little to naïve. This lot have been blessed with the draw and hardly played well whatsoever.

Will Jordan is Jeff Wilsonesque. Handy cricketer too.

Surprised that someone else hasn't been given a chance (Jordie/Beauden/DMac).

Yeah, can't afford that sort of kicking display in the final against the Springboks.

Not convinced they are. Pretty sure Wales would’ve offered more than this.

Wales haven't beaten us since 1953.

That's why he greedily went for the try himself - wanted an easier conversion.

I know, but pretty certain it would’ve been closer.

That's why he greedily went for the time himself - wanted an easier conversion.

Yeah, what I thought as well. Hopefully just an off night.

 

[Tom Flint]

Barrett the best 12 around. Has it all, that was a class performance from him.

 

[Furball]

Because Wales are shite

 

[Quaggas]

Will Jordan is Jeff Wilsonesque. Handy cricketer too.

But let's hope he turns out to be a better pundit than his simulacrum.

 

[GotSpin]

Terrible performance. I actually would have started with Sanchez at 10 but Cheika doesn’t seem to rate him as much

Since when was Taylor the captain?


Either way, odd that you call out the ABs hooker for this - most hookers do this. A far cry from when Grant Fox had a try disallowed against Ireland in 1989 because at a lineout 10 phases earlier, Fitzy had stepped into the field of play when he threw in.
