England vs Argentina - match thread.

by **Biltong** Sat Sep 10, 2011 8:52 am

First topic message reminder :

My prediction was England by 10, so hopefully the Argentinians give a good account of themselves.

This will have to be a great match to live up to the one we have just seen.

Game over.

good try by Youngs

by dubh_linn Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:01 am

Doh! spoke too soon there!

YOUNGS, YOU BEAUTY

by Guest Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:01 am

ooooh boo, poor Argentina Sad

Youngs goes over for a try, don't know how they didn't tackle him there, he looked surprised to get through!

by TheGreyGhost Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

What's the record for number of missing penalty kicks?

by Mad for Chelsea Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

well England have looked better since Youngs came on, and he darts over for a try!

by nathan Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

should of been a yellow!

by **Notch** Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

Yep. There you go.

Oh ffs Vickery- are we even trying to be the impartial co-commentator here?

by **Biltong** Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

Surely johny can't miss this kick?

by Standulstermen Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

Cant see the Argies coming back. Good play from Youngs.

by Guest Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

Armitage with the wendyball celebration there.

Nice finish Ben Youngs. Nice impartial commentary by Vickery there too.

Dude. I don't believe in jinxes. But I will make an exception here. Game ain't over. England don't look that good.

by Taylorman Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:02 am

Dead Rear, sorry Red Deer Alberta (the land of dirty oil, pick up trucks and goat roping music). He's hoping there is no monster wave making its way towards you.

pretty sure the 35 foot chimney stack has moved and will take me out in my sleep before the wave

Im glad that was in front of the posts

WFT JW kicking the ball over Shocked

by eirebilly Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:03 am

Could very well have been a yellow. Lawrence has been a bit poor today to be honest

by doctor_grey Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:03 am

First time I can recall being nervous about a gimmee conversion kick. Geez.

Did you see the sky thing where they asked a load of premiership players what they wanted to be when they were kids? Hartley said an All Black Very Happy

by DaDubs1 Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:04 am

Ah cmon England for fecksake - take one for the team and let the argies win, everybody wants them too.

by MMC Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:04 am

That'll be the ball game.

by **rodders** Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:04 am

You have to feel sorry the Argentina pack. They've made mincemeat out of their England counterparts but their backs aren't able to score any points for all their effort.

by Guest Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:04 am

10 mins, and 1 point in it.
Anything could happen.

by Guest Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:05 am

dr grey? did you see Paterson's missed conversion right in front of the posts in the Scotland match? if you had you'd have been more nervous still!

by Cari Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:05 am

Good try (just he almost didn't get it down within the try area), but they're not out of the woods yet.

Meanwhile is vickery's "commentary" pishing anyone else off?

by doctor_grey Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:05 am

Does this mean the addition of Hartley and Stevens is making a difference?

by Breadvan Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:05 am

Morning all. So glad I've woken up early after a night shift to watch this Rolling Eyes

England are absolutely woeful. Completely furious

by EnglishReign Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:06 am

Why the posts again? Lineout boy, lineout!

Yeah,he's almost as biased as Andy Nichol.

by Gatts Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:06 am

England do not deserve a victory here, but Argentina have done it again. They play like demons and after 10 tears of SH competition will be right up there

by **rodders** Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:06 am

Argentina are gone now. I can see England pulling away in the next 10 minutes.

Can neither confirm nor deny........

by **RDW** Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:07 am

Have to say - seeing England being so poor has definitely made me feel a lot better after Scotland's performance last night!

Argentina have done well but again their game plan is extremely limited.

by EnglishReign Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:07 am

Alright Breadvan, we get the picture.

by Guest Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:08 am

when you factor in two of Argentina's best players went off injured in the first half, they are playing extremely well.

Feel a bit sad for them that they might loes this match now Sad

Boyo, can't really say Argentina deserve it either. In general a match which should be flushed.

by nathan Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:08 am

clearly the puma's were up first on that scrum!!!!

by Cari Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:09 am

England really shouldn't keep trying to kick for points at the rate they're going. Or they should bring Flood on. Now is not the time for Wilko to practice his kicking.

by Mad for Chelsea Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:10 am

England dominating the scrum now

by doctor_grey Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:10 am

This is a big kick. Nervous anyone?

by EnglishReign Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:10 am

It literally is kicking practice for Wilko.

by eirebilly Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:10 am

As i said earlier it will be a very close match up until the 65-70min mark and England would draw clear.

by Gatts Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:10 am

Jonny will go back to his hotel and flagellate

Argentina missed about 9 kicks at goal, they should be well out of sight. They've lost this game rather than England winning it.

by nottins Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:10 am

Finally, a penalty has been kicked.

by nathan Sat Sep 10, 2011 11:11 am

how many more penalties before they get someone carded?
