17:05 Wallabies v Pumas

Kiwis v Saffas
Well, with the AB's on a roll, largely injury free and playing at home can anyone see a reason to not assume the Boks are going to cop a hiding here?
I can't. I'll still watch as it gives me a reason to open a beer a bit earlier than normal.
Wobblies V Argies
With Genia lost to injury in last weeks game, that puts 15 otherwise 1st string Wallabies on the sick list. Surely the conditioning coaches should be questioning their usefulness about now. Barnes has been kept despite apparently not following orders not to kick the fucking ball away every time it's in his hand for the last 3 games. He is also being played at a totally untested 15....
For that reason this should be a corking game and while I'm hoping for a home win, I wouldn't be surprised if the Pumas pull off their first win of the series. Their consistently strong forward pack and hyper aggressiveness at the rucks is sure to trouble the Wallabies strongly inconsistent 8. If the aussie forwards and centers don't find a way to get the ball to our much vaunted but little seen runners with some space, we could be in for a shock loss.
