****, ****, ****....

That's why we need a fit Youngs. Only scrum half in the country with a hint of something about him.

HeathDavisSpeed · 10-09-2011, 04:03 AM

So many missed penalties could have taken this out of England's reach ages ago. Can't see them handing this back to Argentina now.

chalky · 10-09-2011, 04:03 AM

No daft penalties now lads

Hurricane · 10-09-2011, 04:04 AM

England will win now - not sure if the Pumas can open it up.

Howe_zat · 10-09-2011, 04:08 AM

Let off for England. No way should they get away with those first 70 minutes.

_Ed_ · 10-09-2011, 04:10 AM

Wilkinson to kick this one out of reach for Argentina now. Surely.

BoyBrumby · 10-09-2011, 04:11 AM

Something very ballsy about stepping up again when you're kicking 28.5%.

Howe_zat · 10-09-2011, 04:15 AM

I don't think I've ever heard of so many missed kicks in an international match.

2/7 is 28.6%

BoyBrumby · 10-09-2011, 04:20 AM

Phew.

As Johnson himself said before the game: "First: win".

About the best that could be said tho.

Oh, well. Clearly a puff then.

Blaming the ITV graphic.

Hurricane · 10-09-2011, 04:27 AM

I don't think either team really played open rugby but I thought the Pumas were more determined to play it up front.

Funny thing is when they did run it with 2 minutes to go they looked elusive.

And I dread to think of the pummelling we'd have been given by any other 4N side if we played like that.

Argentina #14, and the one with half a dozen names (Lobbe?) were superb I thought. Armitage was good for your English.
