'Faletau is set to win his 28th cap when Wales host Argentina on Saturday, so there has been little time to reflect and regroup following last weekend's punishing 24-15 defeat against South Africa.

"That was up there with one of the most physical games I've played in, and it took its toll," Faletau added.

"We've got to recover and get ourselves ready for Argentina this weekend, which will be another physical challenge. We lost to them last year, and hopefully it will be a better result this time .

"Argentina are big brutes, so we've got to match their physicality and their forwards. I think we managed to match South Africa's physicality, but we just couldn't get enough points on the board."

--------------------

So in other words, no lessons have been learnt from last Saturday.

Why must we take on the opposition where they're strongest? Why must we play the kind of game they want us to play?

We don't need to beat them at their own game, we just need to score more points! Attack their weaknesses, not their strengths!

That because you did not score a try last staurday, ok. 

I'm awestruck by your wisdom.

I'm in awe too. Another theortical discussion of bonehead thinking by madge. I do wonder if he cares about the fact he so often embarrasses himself.

Yes, it is. Who's claiming otherwise?

Someone saying you can prove anything by stats and then they have a go at England to deflect attention away from that very embarrassing stat.

But we beat England with ease 3/3

That's odd as I thought Wales were putting everything into their international game (at the expense of domestic rugby) yet they can't beat the guys they really want to beat, your World Class players aren't getting any younger especially your props.

 

We have it's 3/3  

Is Gatland alright?

Its just that I haven't heard him talking up his teams chances this week or try and play mind games with the match officials.
