Considering the territory and possession, I have no idea how it's only 3 points difference.
Wobs' deficiency in catch / pass skills might have a wee bit to do with it
This. For all their possession and scrum dominance, the passing has been uniformly poor: as bad as NZ last week. Some credit to Arg defensive pressure for it.

Well, that and the fact the ball is a bar of soap out there today.

Still anyone’s game this. Aussies should be way ahead but Argies just won’t roll over.
2nd half, here we go.

Unlike last week, their onfield kick (& chase when there has been any) has been poor. Better getting ball off park given Crims' lineout woes.

How's that not a pen. Even if play was live, not a tackle.
{EDIT} OK. Officials got it.

Exactly. Cheap shot from behind and some refs might have yellowed it.

Clear as day cheap shot, had some nerve trying to pass off as "Oh I didn't hear the whistle"

Still. And when wing should have kicked (after f**king up the high ball), he went all rabbit in headlights.

A draw seems the right result but would take a Crims loss with the last play.

Pumas have replaced that constant thug Lavaninni (not sure of the spelling) with an even bigger meathead at lock.

Appropriately, Lavanini is at Leicester now.
