In answer to Ardie's 'do you think we were being dominated' (as a loose trio) Note doesn't include the 5 counter ruck penalties the ABs got Arg2

(From Roar Article)

Team Breakdown turnovers (rounds 1-4)
Argentina 21
South Africa 17
New Zealand 9
Australia 7

Ignore Oz as we haven't played them yet, so yeah Ardie we've been reamed a lot

Reckon today's BP for the Bokke has probably won them the championship.

Can't see us picking up BP next week, but do see the Jaaps grabbing another.

I can see us smashing Ozzie in Eden Park, just the up and down bullshit that Foster's teams produce.

I hope so, cos I'm going

[Machpants]

But on the other hand, I'm sure Foster wants another record, only time we've lost the RC outside of 'who cares' RWC years

We scored 3 maul tries last game, unless penalty try from a maul counts as a turnover? Good to see not totally relying on turnovers tho

[ARHS]

@Machpants Need to post in a request to the referee for a penalty try before every game if it works!

@Winger Bizarre to see Jasper Wiese in and Rob Valetini and Marika Koribete not. Must have been done by a South African I presume.

That is an absolute terrible take.

Am over Ioane, Jordan didn't have a great tournament & Samisoni was miles better than 45 min Marx. Savea never once played at 7, but gets best 7 & no mention anywhere of Pete Samu who for me the best of the Aussie back row.

The SA locks were picked before it began with neither having standout tournaments. i have no quibble with them being lauded as the standout pair in world rugby, but not in this tournament.

Woeful team.

It's Planet Rugby. A quick scan of the comments are more interesting than the team named.
