of course the 8th ranked team in the world was going to be oulasted by the no.1 ranked team… :roll:

Your point being what?

Last time I looked at the Laws a game of rugby runs for 80 minutes.

The last 15 minutes of that match highlighted the lack of steam in the Puma’s boilers keep up the defensive effort.

@race of tan-6: yes a little fact that most people have conviniently forgotten…in the 65th min of that game the score was 18 – 10 to the all blacks on the back of 6 piri weepu penalties and only when the argies were down to 10-men and moeg did the all black score tries..

As is Nonu. Both different to SBW, but that’s all. Not any worse. In fact, I believe Nonu and Smith are a better combination. All three are far less predictable to a, Jean de Villiars, for example.
