Have some respect for the traditional owners of the land the game is being played in and shut your whinging up.

Have these guys got a sneaky 500 minutes in without telling anyone? They are playing with passion and look good.

I bet the Saffers wish they were in Sydney right now.

Jordie tripped and took out two defenders with him then

Coles reputation probably was at fault there

FINALLY a ref not accepting the dirty tactics by the All Blacks!

The new style is to wear them sideways. He’s a trendsetter.

Even as a massive Mo’unga fan, those missed touch finders happen too often. That was a chance for one last attempt to close the gap, instead Argentina go in with a handy lead.

That's quite possibly the worst half I've ever seen from an all black team.

Foster out!

By far the worst half of test rugby the All Blacks have played since...last week.

Unacceptable.

Credit to Argentina. They are playing with pace, are mixing things up and have been very accurate.

Time for a Fozzie team talk to turn things around.

Managed to put a decent wager on arg at +27.5 what the hell is the NZ TAB thinking hahahhaha.

This game could honestly be the 1st time Argentina wins.

Just a quick perspective, you have a team that’s played 3 games and a team that hasn’t.

Incredible game, this is our next 3 years

Discipline issues does not seem to be resolved.

We are out there looking like muppets getting on the wrong side of the refs.

Our attack is seriously the most one directional shit I've ever seen, we are just shovelling it out wide willy nilly without creating any defensive mismatches (which used to be our speciality)

Our kicking game is woeful.

Our set piece scrum still looks weak, we can't gain any ascendancy at all here.

A toothless All Black team.

So much less than the sum of their parts.

To be fair.

The Argies defence has been brilliant, their attacks and passing have been crisp and precise.

I think Foster should take a year out from rugby to see if that works just as well

Ok, I will bite.

At least a halftime critique of Mo’unga today has one point. You may have needed a bullet pointed list last week.

The Argentinians are doing what they do every time they play. Scrum, niggle, push, tackle, shove, and can hurt you. This is how they always play. How can the AB's be so obviously, woefully prepared for what they are facing?
Some of the AB's forwards have hardly carried the ball, unlike Frizell. What's going on?
Why is RMO not taking the kick-offs etc? BB doing it says that RMo cannot! That's bullshit!
