63-3 against Namibia was just what the Pumas needed. They controlled the game pretty much throughout and played some really good rugby. They now only need a bonus point to qualify for the quarters though I expect they will go in against Ireland confident they can win. It should be a really exciting game for […]

Well Ireland beat Namibia by 32-17. This score would be considered very good in the Six nations. But against Namibia it is a pretty poor showing. The good news is Ireland are off to a winning start with the bonus point. The bad news is it was not convincing. Argentina must be salivating at the […]
