Yes it's due to Galthie as Brunel had backed down re selections.
Scrums kept collapsing.
Good to see bit of French flair back.
French forwards looked heavy in comparison to lean Irish forwards.
Now watching in pub early open for this RWC game.

Ah, Argentina. No touching of the hair or face. Schoolboy error.

Onecoolcookie

Some of Vakatawas offloads have been sublime

Eir coverage really is amateur hour. It's like a transition year production.

Lucky Ba$tard :-)

I reckon after this match I will try and send herself out shopping for a few hours. I'll grab a breakfast roll and 4 cans for NZ/SA match. Then have have a nice afternoon snooze! :-)

France -2 looking good

When Argentina players do manage to tackle a french player its all massive hits. France will feel this game for a few more days.

The 90s are back!

French flair with Ntamack and Penaud at the heart of it!

A joy to watch

It's quite possible Argentina will win this game because....France.

Just a quick watch back at the Fiji Aus game.
Looked like another classic 60 minute performance for the underdog. Saying that, Aus where crap in that 1st half, structure and discipline won the 2nd half for them.

Massive forward pass from the base of the ruck before that penalty.

With Heaslip on board i wont go near the station. How could they employ him, the man is detested.

“Heh heh he .....aaaahhh”

Mr.Crinklewood

Loved the aerial camera for the line out, and subsequent try

lawred2

Was there not a blatant forward pass in the run up to that penalty awarded to Argentina?

Either way makes for an interesting second half.

Great game this

Rockbeast2

phew

razorblunt

Forward pass eventually called.

Argentine player in a choke hold....let's go back for the forward pass.

T-bo, Stringer, D’Arcy, and current Irish international Louise Galvin.
Heaslip is only on RTÉ.

There was no studio for the first match this morning, half-time was dead air, and during the match was an Australian commentary team.

Nothing for the choke hold?

razorblunt

That lineout was not straight yet the argies end up with a penalty.

Rockbeast2

I don't see a peno there?

irishbucsfan

French lifter at the front of that lineout:

Game on. Wow.

razorblunt

The lad that looks like he’s from Mullingar with the try for the Argies.

D.Q

The Argentina players are mad bastards haha so intense. Hope they go on and win it

FrancieBrady

Game on.

Rockbeast2

France lucky then they only conceded 5 and no YC

razorblunt

Incredible jumping in the crowd there and not a drop of her pint spilled. Bueno.

A-Train

A game of two halves here.

Game on.

Maith an cailín.

Rockbeast2

That's the France I know better :-(

lawred2

Surely a yellow coming for France

razorblunt

Yellow coming surely.

Vital Transformation

Penaud, lol.

Rockbeast2

Superman impression

Squidgy Black

Pumas really should've spread that wide and taken on the overlap

RugbyLover123

Awful officiating. Yellow all day long by now.

elefant

France have lost the plot!

What was that move on the sideline :pac:

Akrasia

Final Final warning, he's serious this time

A-Train

How was that not a yellow card. Farce

lawred2

That's a poor call.. Should have been a yellow

Either way Argentina made a meal of that overlap
